ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO 4LO LIGHT STARTED FLASHING THEN WHEN I SHUT THE CAR OFF I CAN HEAR SHIFTING INTO AND OUT OF 4WD. HAD IT CHECKED FOR CODES AND THEY FOUND NONE. NOW AS I WAS DRIVING IT LOCKED INTO 4LO VEHICLE MADE A POPPING SOUND AND STALLED.RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. I WAS ABLE TO START IT BACK UP BUT NOW I CAN'T DRIVE THIS CAR DUE TO FEAR OF IT DOING THIS AGAIN.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK, GASOLINE SHOOTS OUT OF THE TANK ONCE THE TANK IS FULL AND AFTER THE PUMP HANDLE HAS DETECTED THE TANK BEING FULL AND HAS SHUT OFF. I UNDERSTAND FROM TALKING TO THE LOCAL DEALER, CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND MANY COMMENTS ON THE INTERNET THAT CHRYSLER RECALLED CERTAIN 2005 DURANGO'S MADE IN SPECIFIC PLANTS WITH SPECIFIC PARTS. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER AND BY CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT OUR DURANGO WAS NOT RECALLED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY ONLY CERTAIN VEHICLES WERE RECALLED WHEN OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE WERE NOT RECALLED. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN FOR US. GASOLINE GETS ON US AND OUR CLOTHES OUR SKIN AND ON THE GROUND. COULD START FIRE IF A SPARK WAS NEARBY. A NEW TANK COST $1300 PLUS LABOR WHICH WE CAN'T AFFORD. PLEASE HELP US STAY SAFE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN I FILL THE GAS TANK UP GAS COMES BACK OUT THE GAS TANK AND GOES ON THE GROUND AND GETS ON THE VEHICLE AND ON CLOTHING. I HAVE TRIED NUMEROUS GAS STATIONS AND IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. I CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AND THERE IS NOT, BUT THEY HAVE RECALLS ON THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL AS MINE. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND HEALTH ISSUE BECAUSE THE GAS COMES IN CONTACT WITH YOUR SKIN AND RISK OF FIRE AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS WHEN THE GAS GOES ON THE GROUND.

POWER TRAIN
2005 DURANGO AWD 5.7; THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR IS SWITCHING ON ITS OWN REGARDLESS OF THE VEHICLE BEING ON OR OFF. IT OCCASIONALLY ACTUATES WHEN UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE WITH THE REMOTE. MOST OF THE TIME IT ACTUATES WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. SOMETIMES THE DASH LIGHT WILL BLINK 4LO OTHER TIMES 4LOCK. USUALLY AFTER A BIT OF BLINKING THE SVC 4WD LIGHT WILL COME ON. ONCE IT IS IN 4WD, IT IS HARD TO STEER. A COUPLE OF INSTANCES, IT HAS SHIFTED OUT OF GEAR, ONCE I WAS AT AN INTERSECTION. I HAD TO GET HELP JUST TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD. I HAVE READ COUNTLESS BLOGS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ONLINE, THE MAJORITY OF THEM ARE FOR THE 2004 AND 2005 MODELS. IF THIS ISN'T GROUNDS FOR A RECALL I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
MY CAR REPEATEDLY CUTS OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING. I NOTICED THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME MODEL AS I HAVE WHICH A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. I DID MY RESEARCH AND IT WAS IDENTIFIED BY DODGE AS A LOW MANEUVER ISSUE. ONE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENS A FEW DAYS AGO WAS THAT MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF ON A CURVE WHILE MERGING ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM VERY LUCK THAT IT WAS A CAR BEHIND ME AND THEY WERE NOT GOING FAST. MY CAR SHUT OFF AND I LOSE CONTROL OF THE STEERING BECAUSE OF THE LOSS OF POWER. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN TRY TO START THE VEHICLE. I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS SINCE 2006.
