I've had after market controllers on other trucks and was never happy with their performance. They seemed to fluxtuate in how much braking they applied, however the one that cam in my 2013 is great, it's even, repeatable, consistent and easy to adjust when needed.

It was my understanding that the factory brake controller was part of the factory tow packages so how could a factory tow package truck be sold without that feature. Doesn't the true factory tow package come with, Trans Cooler, Oil Cooler, trailer hitch installed and factory brake controller??

You have the coolers and heavy duty alternator in place and you can have the brake controller option without mirrors or hitch receiver. Mine came that way. Those are all there however if you get the complete "Tow Package" option as far as I know.

Factory controller works very well. No grabbing. Also loved my Prodigy in the 2013 Durango. Both are very good.

2013 fit 2015

Does a 2013 mopar integrated controller fit a 2015.. They look exactly the same and the control unit itself actually has the same part number on it but their is a different Mopar number associated with the kit... It's not a huge difference in price...
