I think he sometimes gets really cocky because once he made money he was able to get an Asian mail order bride. 20 years younger than him. Now he thinks he’s the stud. Well maybe that makes up for the person that stretched out his wazoo That drove the Dodge

I find it stupid dealer said its common. Sold it when it had 50k miles and the suspension started giving out some noise. Did not bother to check. Glad I sold it.

It's just a recall for alternator. Its free. Dodge's aren't bad. (Toyota had gas pedal that gets stuck floored and exploding airbags while driving but i mean toyota is perfect. Who cares if your car flew into river or airbag exploding while driving bigger problem is alternator. Of course this was sarcasm. Toyota is great but other car manufacturers are also great. Scotty is great mechanic but why always "because it's dodge this is wrong". Take for example dodge demon you can do hundreds of burnouts and still drive home normally. Every car has good and bad things. Don't hate car because of one thing. Scotty should just say people if you have durango check the recalls.

2005 Dodge Durango 4.7L owner here. My Durango has a bad Body Control Module (Chrysler calls this a Central Timing Module). When the car is parked the dome lights randomly turn off and on. Sometimes the dome lights never act up when parked but most times they do. When driving, the door ajar dashboard light (along with the dome lights) randomly turns off and on which also makes the doors lock and unlock if driving faster than 15 MPH. I am sending the CTM in to G7 Computers soon. They will fix the module for $275. I will have a video on my channel soon with this story.

Scotty is right the central computer programming is to blame for these. I had a 2011 Citadel after 3 years of owning it I started having these issues. - replaced the alternator - recalled the fuel pump relay (then it started not shutting off the fuel pump after engine stop (would come out to 1/8th a tank less) - multiple recalls to replace the sunroof wiring harness (possibility of setting the car on fire) - Central computer was replace 3 times - Recalls for the possibility of the engine not shutting off on rollover (programming issue) - Recalls for the possibility of air bags not deploying on crash or deploying randomly! - Adaptive Cruise Control would freak out anytime I passed another dodge I've lived inside and out of an engine bay since I could turn a wrench. I'm also in IT and I actually got the car to exhibit the conditions while decelerating down an off ramp form 65 to a 25 mile an hour turn Engine stall (confirmed with scanner at the dealer that it thought it has rolled over) computer replaced. I was contacted by a law firm that is doing lemon law on I think 2010-2014 but it would have taken 18 months or more SO... I traded it and learned my lesson. They look cool they have power but they are literally death traps.

My other big gripe with those year’s Durangos is that the SXT’s V6 offered almost NO pickup/pep. They revamped their V6 around 2018 to make it a reasonable acceleration. The vehicle is just too big for less than 280 hp

As a Dodge owner, I will say Dodge loves to cheap out on some of their parts and it shows(which is ironic because when Dodge first became a company the whole point was to build high-quality cars that were better than what Ford made) With that said the car has never had any major problems and only has had minor problems along the way and overall has been a great car.

Very interesting video.. it shows how you combine new technology with the crazy years of experience to diagnose a new car.. it would take that experience because even though someone could buy a scan tool like that and fix 20, even 50% of problems, there will be the other 50% that will require that experience to diagnose almost on a forensic level! It's an awesome skill to forensically diagnose a car.. in fact, I have a tundra that will need that sort of skill and can't think of anyone in recent experience that has combined true experience and high techery like you did on my Lexus... The guy before you had experience, but he would have never figured it out without replacing multiple parts, costing me a butt load of more money... So watch out Scotty, Tundra coming your way soon!
