On 10/16 my 2012 Durango experienced a total electrical control failure. As of right now it is at a 3rd party shop. I think using a high amp draw cell phone charger is what triggered the failure.

Do you drive a 2012 DODGE DURANGO?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
