This is a Nissan 370Z forum.

It sounds like your power steering fluid is low or the pump needs to be replaced. If your tires 'just fall off' when you 'keep turning them', you have problems that no member of this forum can help you with. Find a less expensive shop...you need something repaired.

Sounds like you have a power steering issue. However the "wheels are falling off" comment is a little odd.

If you don't have the money to go get it looked at. It's a long shot, but, maybe try to take it up to Advanced Auto. You might get lucky and one of the more knowledgeable guys will take a look at it. Wear a low cut shirt!

Last suggestion would be doing a google search for a Durango forum. Either way. Good luck!

if you're really uncomfortable with it you really should just take it in for service...

and you will have far better responses on a dodge forum than you will here.

Cheapo's are about $35-$100 but usually don't last very long. First I would check the condition of the belt as it sounds like it is slipping. Replace the PS Filter.

We would have to see pictures of you before we can attempt to diagnose this issue.

Thank you.

I was waiting for a post like this. You can't post that you're a 30yo female without having one of these come up eventually! LOL

You might also have an alignment problem. Take it to a tire shop, they will check most of that stuff for free.
