FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THIS IS DEFINITELY A PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD. I BOUGHT MY USED DODGE DURANGO LAST OCTOBER 2014. EVERY TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK UP,THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF FROM A FULL TANK OF GAS ON MY VEHICLE, THEN THE GAS COMES GUSHING BACK OUT OF THE FUEL NECK OF THE DURANGO'S GAS TANK. THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS ON PREVIOUS YEARS BUT NONE ON 2006. THERE ARE MULTIPLE PEOPLE FILING COMPLAINTS BUT NO RECALLS? THIS CAUSES DAMAGE TO THE AUTOMOBILE PAINT, CLOTHES, PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT. HOWEVER, MOST CONCERNING IS THE SAFETY HAZARD OF A POTENTIAL FIRE OR EXPLOSION FROM THE OVERFLOWED GAS AND FUMES HAPPENING AROUND MULTIPLE CARS, PEOPLE AND GAS PUMPS AT GAS STATIONS WHEN 2006 DODGE DURANGO OWNERS FILL UP THEIR VEHICLES. THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM CAUSED BY ANY OWNER. THIS IS A MECHANICAL DEFECT IN THE DODGE DURANGO FILLER TUBE VALVE IN THE GAS TANKS. PLEASE HELP TO GET THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED BY THE DODGE COMPANY. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I BOUGHT MY DODGE DURANGO USED IN 2010 AND EVERYTIME I FILL MY GAS TANK UP AND THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF FROM A FULL TANK, THE GAS COMES GUSHING OUT OF THE FUEL NECK. THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS ON PREVIOUS YEARS BUT NONE ON 2006. DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. THERE ARE MULTIPLE PEOPLE FILING COMPLAINTS BUT NO RECALLS? THIS CAUSES DAMAGE TO PAINT, CLOTHES, PEOPLE STANDING IN THE WAY WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE IT HAPPENS. DOES IT TAKE AN ACTUAL INJURY OR FIRE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE? ITS RIDICULOUS AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!! I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT AND IT IS CLEARLY A DEFECT FROM THE FACTORY. HOPEFULLY SOMETHING IS DONE SO DODGE OWNERS CAN CONTINUE TO LOVE THE CARS THEY BOUGHT. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, SERVICE BRAKES
APPROXIMATELY DURING SUMMER OF 2013, UPON STARTING ENGINE, THE IGNITION WOULD "STICK" WHEN KEY WAS TURNED FORWARD. DURANGO WOULD HAVE TO BE TURNED OFF AND KEY TAKEN OUT OF IGNITION SWITCH TO TRY IT AGAIN. THEN, UPON SHIFTING INTO REVERSE AND BACKING UP, THE VEHICLE WOULD COME TO AN ABRUPT HALT AND BE IMMOVABLE FOR A TIME, USUALLY UNTIL PUTTING INTO PARK AND RE-STARTING VEHICLE. THIS IS WHEN THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. WE HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED AT WHICH TIME THE WHEELS WERE LOCKED IN PLACE, CAUSING BLACK SKID MARKS FROM ITS POINT OF TOW TO TOW TRUCK. THE AUTO SHOP REPLACED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHICH WAS "STUCK OR LOCKED IN POSITION". MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT WENT OFF TEMPORARILY. IT CAME BACK ON AGAIN IN AUGUST, 2014. TOOK TO AUTO SHOP TO DIAGNOSE. AFTER 677.74 DOLLARS IN REPAIRS, LIGHT STILL REMAINS ON. *TR

POWER TRAIN, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE IN 2009, IT BEGAN SHUTTING OFF WHEN I DECELERATED FOR STOPS OR TURNS. NO ENGINE LIGHT WARNING. IN 2009, TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES. NO HELP. ISSUES HAVE CONTINUED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP IN 2010 3-4 TIMES FOR SAME ISSUE. SEEMS TO SHUT OFF MORE IN WINTER THAN SUMMER BUT IS VERY RANDOM. IN 2011, MORE EXPLORATORY WORK WAS COMPLETED AT DEALERSHIP. IS THERE A LEMON LAW? IN 2012, I HAD SOMEONE ELSE TINKER ON IT. STILL NO ASSISTANCE. THE ISSUES ARE LESS ANNOYING NOW AND BECOMING DANGEROUS AS IT NOW SHUTS OFF AT ANY TIME, AT ANY SPEED, IN ANY WEATHER. I'VE TRIED NEW BRAKES, COUPLE OF NEW BATTERIES, NEW COMPUTER CHIP, COMPLETE VISUAL OVERALL WITH COMPUTER ASSISTANCE AT DEALERSHIP. ONCE WHEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, O'REILY'S COMPUTER SAID THAT THE SENSOR BOX HAD MOISTURE IN IT. DEALERSHIP FOUND NO SUCH EVIDENCE. ALL MAINTENANCE LIKE OIL CHANGES ARE UP-TO-DATE. IN 2013 IN ADDITION TO THE SHUTTING OFF, THERE IS A BUMPING WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED AND NO ONE CAN CONTRIBUTE THAT ISSUE TO ANYTHING EITHER! NO HELP. SCARED TO DRIVE BUT NO $$ GET A NEW ONE. I FEEL ABANDONED WITH A LEMON. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
UPON FIRST PURCHASING AT A DEALERSHIP THE PURCHASE WAS AS A USED VEHICLE, SO NO WARRANTY IS OR WAS IN PLACE. A FEW MONTHS LATER WHEN FILLING THE TANK AT A GAS STATION THE FIRST INCIDENT OF PROPULSION OF GASOLINE FORCING OUT OF THE TANK, FIRST HAPPENED. THEN A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE THE MOTOR WOULD NOT START. USING AN OBD TO CHECK CODES THERE WAS NO ERROR CODES BUT STILL ENDED UP CLEARING IT ANYWAYS WHICH ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO START (WHICH MEANS ITS THE COMPUTER). NOW, THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW IS DOWN AND WILL NOT GO BACK UP, CHECKED THE MOTOR AND THE MOTOR FOR THE WINDOW IS FINE, BUT CHECKING THE SWITCH IT WOULD ONLY UNLOCK DOOR, NOT ALLOW LOCK AND ABSOLUTELY NO WINDOW CONTROL AT ALL FROM EITHER THE PASSENGER DOOR SWITCH OR DRIVER SIDE SWITCH. WHEN LOOKING AT THE SWITCHES TURNS OUT THAT THE CIRCUIT BOARDS ARE NOT SOLDERED. THE ONLY WAY TO GET ANY OF THE PROBLEMS FIXED FOR ANYONE NOW WOULD BE FOR A RECALL, BECAUSE THE YEAR BEING 2014 NO WARRANTY WILL COVER ANY PROBLEMS THAT I OR ANYONE ELSE IS FACING! *TR
