Your 2016 Dodge Durango came pre-wired for installing an aftermarket brake controller so you can easily install one and not have to worry about it damaging anything. All you need is the correct harness like the part # TK93VR which is a fit for your vehicle and designed to work with the Tekonsha/Prodigy brand brake controllers.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.
I attached an install video that shows a similar brake controller installed in a similar Dodge Durango as well.
