Awd troubles
I have a 06 Durango with the Awd/4 Lock option. I have 74000kms on it and 4 winters. I have begun to notice that when turning sharply in reverse I have a noticeable binding in the rear wheels. It is worse when it it is colder but seems to disappear after you drive for a substantial time.
Dealer cant re-create problem and has no ideas for the problem. Problems disappear when the temp warms up and of course it gets looked at inside a heated shop. They say that maybe something was frozen but not sure what. I realize that they cant correct a problem that isnt there when they look at it but it will do it the next morning of course. Something is not right as it has never done this in 4 winters of driving. Looking for any thoughts as I feel the Awd option is working improperly and maybe am I in 4 lock most of the time now? Thats what it feels like when turning sharply but no lights come on.
Thanks in advance
