Thinking of buying the 2002 Dodge Durango?
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2002 Dodge Durango; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 2002 Dodge Durango is a big decision; here is the information we have.
A buyer's checks
There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 423 complaints with NHTSA, most often about suspension, power train and service brakes; have those parts checked. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Under the hood
It uses the 4.7L 8-cylinder and rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The combined figure, 15.7 L/100 km, means roughly 47 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $243.40. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,450 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
The Durango in everyday use
As an SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.
Drive it on your own roads
A week with the Durango answers more than any brochure. Rent the Durango first, and buy only if it fits your life. Try the Durango on your commute, then decide.
Choosing the right one
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$4,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Get an offer
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
