For 2009, the Dodge Durango is basically unchanged, save for new standard or available features. The big change is in the available 5.7-litre Hemi V8 engine, which is now revised with the addition of variable valve timing, for more power with improved fuel economy.
The Durango comes with a choice of 4.7-litre flexible fuel V8 or 5.7-litre Hemi V8, both with five-speed automatic transmissions. The 4.7-litre comes with a single-speed four-wheel drive transfer case and can be optioned to the full-time system with low range that's standard with the 5.7-litre. Three rows of seats are standard equipment.
The SLT comes with 18-inch aluminum wheels, front and rear air conditioning, full-length console, power locks with keyless entry, trailer sway control, floor mats, fog lamps, privacy glass, automatic headlamps, garage door opener, maple woodgrain trim accents, heated mirrors, 115-volt power outlet, CD/MP3 stereo with auxiliary input and Sirius satellite radio, black roof rack side rails, Stain Repel seat fabric, eight-way power driver's seat, 40/20/40 split fold-and-tumble reclining second-row seats, third-row passenger fold-into-floor bench seat, security alarm, cruise control, leather-wrapped wheel with audio controls, tire pressure monitoring display, one-touch up/down front windows, and front and rear variable intermittent wipers.
An optional SLT Plus package adds 20-inch chrome-clad aluminum wheels, power-adjustable pedals, heated leather seats, and 60/40 split-folding third-row seat.
Based on the Dakota pickup truck, the Durango is a big vehicle that will haul a lot of people, but will ask for a fair amount of fuel in return. Its nimble steering and good road manners means it drives more like a big car than a truck. It can optioned to a high level, but if you want to go a step beyond, it's also sold at Chrysler as the Aspen.

Units Affected:
1,109
Notification Type:
Safety Mfr
On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the driver frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the driver frontal airbag inflator. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2015-228. Only Ram 3500 Cab Chassis models are affected. As Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly, the recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected.

Notification Type:
Safety TC
On certain vehicles, the rear axle pinion nut could loosen and allow the rear driveshaft to detach from the axle, or fully detach from the vehicle. Pinion nut separation could also cause the rear axle differential to fail suddenly, causing rear wheel lockup. These issues could result in loss of propulsion, danger to other road users, loss of vehicle control and possible crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a pinion nut retainer.
