Reliable

Reliable. The front seat ride is respectively smooth. Seats are not as comfortable as I would have like, especially in the back seat. I would recommend if you have children or extra passengers to sit in the back during a test drive. Every small bump is felt in the middle and 3rd row. Any turn in the wheel feels like a sharp curve, when in reality its not. Not ideal, seats lack adjustments. Only heated, preferred cooled as well with the summer temperatures on leather seats. No dvd player, but there is a sd card insert, aux, usb, etc. for you to use for music uploads. Parking assist is hilarious, it senses tall grass and it slams on the brakes for you. Not ideal when you live in rural/country areas. The jack is horrible, car slid off it twice and the second time bent the arm on it. Radio, mirrors, and seat can be adjust to your seat presets (lovely feature for a couple). Rear a/c isnt as powerful as it needs to be in the 3rd row. Takes much longer than needed to cool off. Remote starts only works if your within a certain feet and there isnt any other vehicles blocking it. It is easy to clean so thats a major plus with having children. Storage compartments everywhere, even under the driver seat. There is an eco off and a sport button for those wanting a more get up and go vs the slow accelerator.

Owned it 3 months so far so Good.

I liked everything about the Durango before I bought it and had none of the buyers remorse I normally expect by now. Only a few small issues, but for me that is a big positive. 1) Transmission shifts too much. 2) the UConnect Radio system holds back 1 basic function (Voice to TXT) and charges extra for it ($149 a year) (subscription not worth the money). Lastly the height of the vehicle is too low for running boards but to high to step out with out sliding out of the seat (which at 10k miles the seats are already showing a lot of wear from that "sliding out").

Fantastic SUV

This is the largest vehicle I've owned and I absolutely love it. Plenty of storage room, great design, and pretty great gas mileage.

Love my Durango

Wanted an SUV with a nice styling and a gorgeous interior that didn't break the bank. The Durango fits all those bills and gets wonderful mileage

Refined Sexy Beast

The new 2016 Durango is a beast with class thrown into the design. It has the horsepower to pull my 4K lbs boat and with plenty of style with the red interior I choose as an option. Sounds system is great, seating and overall tech package matches any vehicle out there. Very happy with this purchase

Best SUV EVER!!

Handles like a car. Quiet interior and we get over 500 miles per tank of gas granted it has a 25 gallon tank. But when coupled with the V6 engine and all wheel drive this is an SUV that you can not beat.

Saved our lives

Fantastic, good looking car - averaged 21mpg over the 9months I drove it. Got in a highspeed collision, tboned into drivers' side of durango. We both walked away.

Love the improved gas mileage

I love the comfort of the ride and the easiness of the touchscreen system and the improved gas mileage from the day of the older Durango which I had and I loved it so much I came back to buy another one.
