It's sad to see all the comments disparaging FCA for product quality. I believe them, so you can be sure it was a huge risk when I decided to get my brand new Durango. But I have to say-- 0 problems minus some infotainment quirks and I am super impressed. In 2 years I've put 60K miles on it and frankly it's performed wonderfully

A lot of posts here claiming FCA products are junk. I’m puzzled, because my mother has a 2013 Durango AWD v6 with about 125k miles and that thing runs great still. I drove it and was surprised at how solid it felt on the road. No vibrations. No noises. Very smooth. We took her Durango on a 3000 mile road trip last year to the Pacific Northwest and this year a 1500 mile trip around Lake Powell and Capital Reef in Utah. It’s been a trusty steed for her and for our family trips. She said it’s only needed normal maintenance.

Thank you so much to do review this car. It means a lot to me for my future buying.

Two corrections: 1) The SRT does have cylinder deactivation. Same as the 5.7. In both the R/T and SRT, this feature can be disabled. Only the Pentastar V6 engine lacks this feature. In the SRT, you configure cylinder deactivation in the Uconnect, unlike the R/T where there is a button. 2) The steering wheel paddle shifters are 100% metal. I know you said they "feel cheap and plastic". That might be true. But they are metal. I've replaced the standard ones with the SRT version. They are definitely metal.

Then, just unscrew the SRT paddles from those switches and install them in place of the paddles found on the R/T and GT.

I have to say that FCA is the only (albeit not fully) American brand/organisation that knows how to design a good looking product. The interior and exterior designs are definitely best in Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep models.

Dodge has always offered it's customers bang for your buck. After the warranty expires, the engine goes bang and you spend all of your bucks repairing it.

About the current architecture: The WK2 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango debuted the last JOINT venture from the Daimler-Chrysler merger in 2011. This Durango sits on the same architecture as the current MBZ GLS(the GLS did not get it until 2013), and the GC was first to get the architecture prior to the 2012 MBZ ML-Class(2019 GLE-Class). It is common for the uninformed to believe Mercedes "handed-down" Chrysler platforms. It just is not true.

Matt Anthony Exactly. It is shameful to not have knowledge of something that significant. Furthermore, it usually is applied heavily to FCA vehicles in a very biased manner. This is NOT a hand-me-down or OLD platform, as stated multiple times in this review. The Ford Explorer sits on a Volvo platform from 1999(S80). Yet it is the #1 seller by far. So does it really matter? And obviously, the rants about the interior while leaving out the fact that it is STILL on par with most in the class(you can't even get a leather-wrapped dash in most others, save the Explorer Platinum) despite being so "old" is telling. I cringe each time an FCA vehicle is reviewed here. I do not see this level of biased review any place else on KZread, even from pro-foreign reviewers.

People that give me grief over buying a Jeep have no idea what the JGC is (MBZ design, still in use by MBZ), It may be on a 2011 design, but it was so well designed that it holds up to new SUV's. I looked at the new Explorer and Edge and hated them. I was happy when I bought it and even happier after seeing everything else in the market at the Auto Show.

As for Motor Week TV's John Davis, he has a paid production staff of writers, camera operators, auto industry researchers, and film editors on his show. He doesn't even do the on-camera driving scenes during his reviews (hint: Sofyan does).

Rumor has it that they will be taking the Durango back to its roots of being a body on frame SUV "truck" rather than a large crossover in 2021. It's sad they are waiting that long but if they can basically make a RAM 1500 with a full length body and 3 row seating I think it would be a major hit considering the competition. Besides being the only ones to probably offer a high real world MPG V6 (no turbocharged bs) along side the world famous 5.7 Hemi, as it would share a lot of RAM 1500 tooling. That would be the end all for SUV's if they could make the thing tow similar numbers to the RAM and make it the true ultimate family hauler. Also adopting the RAM's air suspension, 12 inch touch, ludicrous amounts of storage, and maybe even the etorque system if it proves a success. That segment of the market is surprisingly lucrative, as I see Yukons, Tahoes/Suburbans, Escalades, Expeditions and Navigators all over the damn place, hell I'd say I see more of the body on frame SUV's than I do the Unibody SUV's.
