Yes,
It is very expensive to buy a new one because after you buy it you also have to flash it in which a dealer must do this and that is an added fee. I would bet somewhere in the line of $400+ out the door. You are better off sending yours in and getting yours back. This way it's done, and done correctly, plus you keep your OEM parts. It is just simple plug and play.
Now there always is the swap methodology, however you have to find a Durango the same year as yours, with the same ABS system as yours, and same gearing as yours, and same engine type for it to be plug and play at a junk yard. This can be done but as you can see it is actually very hard to accomplish.
