1998 Dodge Durango Slt on 2040-cars
Patchogue, New York, United States
This is a 1998 Dodge Durango SLT with a good running 5.2L engine. It has had the fuel injectors replaced approx 2 years ago, along with a new power steering pump and water pump. At about the same time I paid over $1200 to have the heater box pulled and the core replaced, the squirrel cage fan replaced & the AC evaporator replaced (sorry, I think that's what else was in there)-and whatever else NEEDS to be replaced when they spend 2 days of labor to do it!!! It also had O2 sensors, crankshaft sensor & a couple others replaced prior to its last inspection. I should have most if not all receipts. The body is in decent shape for a 16 year old vehicle, a few parking lot dings & a couple bubble spots in paint. The front bumper has a rust hole through it on drivers side....don't know why but it's not the 1st Durango I've seen rusted through in the same spot!!! The interior is in pretty good shape, factory AM/FM/CD/cassette with the premium sound system, rear AC, all power, 3rd row seating...the drivers seat has a tear in it & the clip to hold the power controls to the seat broke.
Now for the PROBLEM. THIS DURANGO NEEDS THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED!!!!!! Sometimes it will shift through all gears, but much of the time it stays in 1st gear. This started right after I did the AC & last inspection/repairs 2 years ago. I don't think there's any way around it. IT NEEDS A TRANSMISSION!!!! The check engine light is on & the codes are for the transmission....internal solenoids, which usually go bad when the torque converter begins to self-destruct. Other then that, it is a good looking, good running vehicle. (I am now into Jeep Cherokee XJ's & have neither the time nor the desire to do any work on this, my 4th Durango!!!!! Hence the reason I wish to sell it). I have clean, clear NYS title in hand!!! It is on south shore of Long Island, central Suffolk County. I WILL NOT ship it, YOU MUST PICK IT UP or HAVE IT TOWED!!!!! Contact me if you'd like to see it. IT IS AVAILABLE FOR SALE LOCALLY!!!! |

Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
2014 Dodge Durango bows with eight-speed auto, updated looks [w/video]
Thu, 28 Mar 2013Dodge has significantly updated its full-size Durango for the 2014 model year, giving the seven-passenger hauler a fresh look and a well-rounded boost of competitive features as it enters its fourth year in the showroom.
Cosmetically, it is hard to miss the revised front end with projector-beam headlamps and LED daytime running lamps, "floating" crosshair grille, a taller front bumper and a new lower fascia. The rear end of the facelifted Durango has been redesigned with the automaker's now-signature LED "racetrack" taillamps and resculpted rear fascia. All of the wheels are new too, with 18- and 20-inch options for each trim level with a variety of factory finishes.
Inside the cabin, buyers can select the automaker's latest Uconnect infotainment system with a full suite of infotainment features and connectivity accessed through an 8.4-inch touchscreen. Other optional goodies include a heated steering wheel, heated second-row seating and a Blu-Ray player capable of running unique programs on the twin individual rear monitors.
