2002 Dodge Durango

On certain vehicles, the ignition/park shift interlock system may become inoperable.  This can allow the shifter to be moved out of the PARK position with the ignition key removed (or in the lock position) or it could allow the ignition key to be removed when the shifter has not been placed in the PARK position.  This could allow the vehicle to roll away, possibly causing property damage and/or personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will replace the gearshift blocker and bracket assembly.

Certain vehicles equipped with a bench front seat may experience a short circuit in an unused console power outlet connector if liquid is spilled from the floor mounted cup holder.  This could cause a fire.  Correction: Dealers will clean the connector and cap it to prevent contamination.

On certain four wheel drive vehicles, if moisture leaks into the front suspension upper ball joint, evacuation of the lubricant and corrosion of the joint may cause the joint to wear progressively over an extended period of time.  A worn upper ball joint could separate, causing a loss of vehicle control which may result in a crash.  Correction:  Dealers will replace the upper ball joints with a revised assembly having improved sealing integrity. Two wheel drive models will be covered by an extended warranty of 10 years or 160,000 kms.

On certain vehicles, the windshield wiper motor assembly may become susceptible to water intrusion that could cause internal corrosion and result in partial or complete loss of front windshield wiping capability.  Correction:  Dealers will replace the front windshield wiper motor with a revised version that contains a water shield.
