2014 Dodge Durango Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2014 Dodge Durango can be simple, but resetting without repair only masks the symptom and risks greater damage. The proper approach is a full diagnostic scan to read stored codes, identify the failure mode, and perform the correct repair using OEM parts. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver our certified technicians follow Chrysler factory procedures to reset the light after repairs, clear pending codes, and complete verification drives to ensure the fault won’t return. That transparency protects your investment: we explain why a code appeared, show needed parts and labor, and outline immediate and long-term savings when issues are fixed correctly. Because warranty-covered repairs must be performed at a certified dealership, bringing your Durango to us preserves coverage and vehicle value. We also offer service financing so you can do necessary work now and pay over time, and we post current offers as service specials to help lower costs. For reliable results and documented service history, schedule service with our team and get a clear, honest plan to keep your Durango running strong.

2014 Dodge Durango Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine codes for the 2014 Dodge Durango include P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P0300-0304 (multiple or cylinder misfires), P0456 (evaporative system small leak), and P0135/P0141 (oxygen sensor heater circuit). Ignoring these codes can increase fuel consumption, damage emission systems, and lead to much higher repair costs—catalytic converter replacement alone can be several times the cost of early intervention. Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver in Denver, CO, specializes in these diagnostics: our factory-trained technicians use OEM scanners to read freeze-frame data, run targeted tests, and advise on economical repair sequences that protect your vehicle’s performance and resale value.
