Nice ride. The noise from the shock is a common issue. There should be a TSB around for it.

 

Trust me, you're lucky the dealer didn't wax it lol. Whatever idiot "prepped" mine left marks on the back leather seats and attempted to wax the plastic on the side view mirrors. I would've rathered them do nothing & me just do it myself.

That said, congrats! Looks awesome, you'll love the Durango the more you drive it.

 

You make an excellent point:thumbsup:

 

Very nice vehicle.

 

Rear hatch misalignments pop up from time to time. Jeeps suffer from them too. My 2014 had an alignment issue--I never had it fixed because it was totaled before I could.

I spoke with the dealership about it tho and he gave me some BS that the doors and hatches are precision measured with lasers before they exit the factory. Right... which explains all the alignment issues out there. I highly doubt those hatches are become misaligned en route from factory to dealer.

 

- Driver's side front door creak - has anyone experienced this, and if so what is the fix?


Thanks again! View attachment 24467

What exactly do you mean by this? MY RT wasn't aligned with the back driver's side door and the dealership fixed it by moving the latch further towards the center of the vehicle. Not sure if that's the issue you're experiencing or not...

 

Well... the best way I can describe the sound is that there is a quiet creak that comes from somewhere around the door. On my other car, the BMW dealership added some clear tape to the door frame to sort of make the space between the door gasket and frame just a little tighter.

 

Nice looking! Congrats

 

I have/had the drivers side door creak, haven't heard it in a while or maybe I just got used to it. I attempted to put some lithium grease on the hinges that didn't seem to make any immediate improvement but maybe its finally worked its way into the problem area.

I also had an issue with the cargo hatch not latching at all (almost left all my groceries in the parking lot after pressing the button and expecting it to latch). Dealer fixed this with new rubber trim.

 

Nice Ride Enjoy it

On mine (2014 R/T), there is a piece of foam installed in the front fender, just in front of the drivers door that rubs on the door when it is opened or closed. I usually just push the foam forward so that it does not contact the door anymore and it will be good for about a week. It does make a bit of a "creak" sound, so that might be what you are hearing. Not sure of the purpose of this piece of somewhat loose foam.
