| I have a 2006 dodge durango limited with a 5.7 hemi engine. my issues is with the esp (traction control). the esp light is coming on and the esp is engaging when making turns (left & right). it also feels extremely lose at speeds over 45 mph. when on the freeway it feels like i am driving on ice and if i hit a bump, it kicks the vehicle to the left or right, sometimes close to going into the adjecent lane. when i try to correct this act by steering back into the lane, the esp is engaging. when the esp engages it cause the wheel its engaging on to start braking. it is very scary when going 65-70 mph, with lose steering and one side of your vehicle begins to brake. i feel very unsafe driving with my kids in the truck. now this is confusing since it says in the handbook that the esp is always on and to turn it off you have to push the button on the center console which inturn will display the light on the dash. i have to push the button and have it turned of at all times so that the vehicle drives in a managable way. i have looked online and noticed several complaints regarding the esp engaging on turns for no reason. it happens at speeds of 5pmh, 20mph and all the way up to 75mph. i sent the vehicle into the dealership, they kept it for a week and a half and returned it saying that they couldnt fix it and were not exactly sure why its doing it. i have already contacted an attorney for the behavior of the managment and their unwillingness to correct the issues even though i have a warranty and they sold the vehilce to me like this 3 months ago. i would appreciate if this issue could be looked into, thank you1 worried dodge owner. | |||
