Problems:
Brake fluid leaks
Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, calipers, or master cylinder, leading to reduced braking performance.
Brake pad wear
Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced to ensure effective braking.
Brake rotor warping
Heat and wear can cause brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations and reduced braking efficiency.
Vacuum booster failure
The brake booster, which assists with brake force, can fail or develop leaks, resulting in a hard brake pedal and reduced braking power.
Engine misfire
V8 engines can experience misfires due to issues with spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.
Oil leaks
V8 engines may develop oil leaks from valve covers, oil pan, or rear main seal, leading to oil loss and potential engine damage.
Cooling system problems
The engine can overheat due to a malfunctioning thermostat, water pump, or radiator issues.
Intake manifold gasket failure
This can cause vacuum leaks, poor engine performance, and coolant leaks.
Timing chain or belt issues
Wear and tension problems with the timing chain or belt can lead to engine timing issues and potential engine damage.
Fuel pump failure
A failing fuel pump can lead to poor engine performance and stalling.
Transmission problems
The 2000 Dodge Durango is known for automatic transmission issues, including slipping, hard shifts, and transmission failure.
Suspension wear
