FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FUELING MY VEHICLE AND THE PUMP CLICKS OFF, FUEL JUST SPEWS FROM THE TANK ALL OVER THE GROUND [ABOUT A CUP OF GAS EACH TIME] WHICH UPSETS ME DUE TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL FACTOR AND SAFETY ISSUES. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME OVER THE PAST YEAR, EVEN AT THE LOWEST REFUEL SPEED. I NOTICED MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER 2006 DURANGO OWNERS AND THAT 2005 MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE MY CAR IS A 2006 DURANGO, 47,000 MILES, 5.7L HEMI, 4WD. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2006 DODGE DURANGO SLT. ON EVERY GASOLINE FILL UP, THE GAS PUMP DOES NOT GET TRIGGERED TO SHUT OFF AND GASOLINE VIOLENTLY WITH FORCE SPRAYS A SIGNIFICANT QUANTITY OF GASOLINE DIRECTLY OUT OF THE FUEL NOZZLE, DOWN THE VEHICLE, AND ONTO ANYTHING WITHIN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE NOZZLE, THEN DOWN TO THE GROUND, PUMP HOSE. IF STANDING HOLDING THE NOZZLE, I HAVE BEEN SPRAYED WITH GASOLINE. THIS HAS OCCURRED AT EVERY FILL UP, REGARDLESS OF GAS STATION I'VE TRIED. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AND I SEE VIA MULTIPLE SITES IS NOT LIMITED TO JUST MY DURANGO. *TR

GAS STATION FUEL PUMPS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF WHEN REFUELING VEHICLE RESULTING IN FUEL GUSHING OUT THE FILLER PIPE AND SPILLING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS OCCURS REGARDLESS OF THE GAS STATION USED AND THEREFORE APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FUELING MY VEHICLE AND THE PUMP CLICKS OFF, FUEL JUST SPEWS FROM THE TANK ALL OVER THE GROUND WHICH ANGERS ME DUE TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL FACTOR. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME EVEN AT THE LOWEST REFUEL SPEED. I NOTICED MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER 2006 DURANGO OWNERS. THOSE THAT HAD IT DIAGNOSED AT A DODGE DEALER SAY THAT THE GAS TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WHICH SOLVED THE PROBLEM BUT COSTS $600.00 OR MORE. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT THE 2005 DURANGOS EXPERIENCED AND A RECALL WAS ISSUED. THIS NEEDS TO BE A MANDATED RECALL AND REPLACED FREE. MY CAR IS A 2006 DURANGO, 60,000 MILES, 5.7 HEMI, 2WD. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2006 DODGE DURANGO AND EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS WHEN THE AUTOMATIC NOZZLE SHUTS OFF OR IF I HAVE BEEN CAREFULLY PUTTING IN GAS AT A SLOW PACE. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR STANDING IN A POOL OF GASOLINE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ON THE WEB AND FOUND SEVERAL 2006 DURANGO OWNERS RESPONDED ON THE DODGE FORUM WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. APPARENTLY THE 2005 DURANGO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT WAS RECALLED AND FIXED. WHEN WILL DODGE MAKE THIS RIGHT FOR ALL THE 2006 DURANGO OWNERS? *TR

2006 DODGE DURANGO SPEWS GAS FROM FILLER TUBE WHENEVER WE FILL IT. DEALER DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS A FLAP VALVE IN GAS TANK, AND SAID THE TANK SHOULD BE REPLACED (APPROX. $600). AT HER SUGGESTION WE REPORTED PROBLEM TO DODGE. THEY TALKED DIRECTLY TO SERVICE MANAGER AND AUTHORIZED THE REPAIR, MINUS A $100 DEDUCTIBLE. VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND WE HAD NO EXTENDED WARRANTY. DEALER SAID THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THEY HAD SEEN SEVERAL TIMES PREVIOUSLY, AND THAT DODGE HANDLES IT ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS. GIVEN THE NIGHTMARES REPORTED BY OTHER 2006 DURANGO OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, WE PAID THE $100 AND GOT A NEW TANK INSTALLED. THE NEW TANK (AND FLAP VALVE) RESOLVED THE PROBLEM. WE STILL BELIEVE THAT DODGE SHOULD HAVE COVERED THE ENTIRE REPAIR BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER OF PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS AND THE SEVERITY OF THE SAFETY ISSUE, BUT A $100 LOSS IS BETTER THAN A $600 LOSS FOR OUR FAMILY. I SINCERELY HOPE THAT DODGE WILL ISSUE A RECALL FOR 2006 AND LATER DURANGOS BEFORE THERE IS A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR FIRE. *TR

WE BOUGHT A USED 2006 DODGE DURANGO AND STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE SOON AFTER OUR PURCHASE. WE HAVE HAD TO HAVE SEVERAL THINGS FIXED VIA RECALLS BUT WHAT IS MOST CONCERNING TO ME IS THE GAS TANK OVERFLOW PROBLEM WE HAVE BEEN HAVING. I WENT ONLINE TO LOOK UP RECALLS AND FOUND THE 2005S WERE RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THE 2006S DO NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL. I CALLED CHRYSLER/DODGE AND THEY AGREED TO PAY HALF OF THE 950.00 THAT IS WAS GOING TO COST TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. WE HAD TO SEND THE ORIGINAL RECEIPT AND WORK ORDER FROM THE DEALER WHICH WE DID. THAT WAS BACK IN APRIL AND WE STILL HAVE YET TO BE REIMBURSED. AFTER RESEARCHING THE INTERNET I FOUND SEVERAL PEOPLE IN THE SAME SITUATION AS MYSELF. THE GAS SHUTOFF VALVE CLICKS OFF BUT GASOLINE SPITS OUT ALL OVER ME, THE CAR, AND THE GROUND EVERY TIME I GO TO FILL IT. IT HAS ALSO SPLASHED IN MY EYES ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. IF ANYBODY WERE TO BE SMOKING OR HAVE A CELL PHONE THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE AND SERIOUS BODILY INJURY. SINCE DODGE FEELS IT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM I AM READY TO RALLY THE TROOPS TO SUE THEM. PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AND GET MY MONEY BACK FROM WHAT THEY SHOULD BE REPAIRING BEFORE SOMEBODY BLOWS UP. HERE ARE SEVERAL MORE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME THING.

WE OWN A 2006 DODGE DURANGO, HEMI 8 -CYL ENGINE. WE ARE THE FIRST AND ONLY OWNERS OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN FUELING THE GAS TANK, SIGNIFICANT QUANTITIES OF FUEL SHOOT OUT AFTER THE PUMP HAS STOPPED. THE PERSON FUELING THE VEHICLE GETS COVERED IN FUEL. FUEL IS SPILT ON GROUND AND ON SIDE OF VEHICLE. IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHERE YOU REFUEL, SO IT IS NOT STATION SPECIFIC. THE CABIN TO THE DURANGO FILLS WITH FUEL VAPORS AND THE SITUATION POSES SIGNIFICANT RISK OF FIRE. THERE ARE ALSO SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONSTANT SPILLING OF THE GAS. IT SEEMS THAT THERE ARE OTHER RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE WITH THE 2005 DURANGOS, BUT NOT OUR 2006. *TR

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK, A LARGE QUANTITY OF FUEL SPRAYS THE REFUELER AFTER TANK IS FULL AND PUMP HAS ALREADY SHUT OFF. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH A HIGH BACK PRESSURE BUILDS INSIDE THE TANK AND MAY BE CONTRIBUTING TO THIS PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF FILLING STATION AND HAS CONTRIBUTED TO CLOTHING AND BODILY CONTACT WITH GASOLINE. *TR

MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO JUST TURNED 50,000 MILES AND ALL OF A SUDDEN EVERY TIME I FILL UP ON GAS THE GASOLINE SHOOTS BACK OUT AT ME. IT SOAKS ME, THE CAR, THE OUTSIDE OF MY CAR AND THE GROUND. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AND A WASTE OF MONEY. I HAVE CONTACTED DODGE AND THIS CAR IS NOT IN A RECALL. I UNDERSTAND 2005 MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THIS IS VERY WORRISOME AND VERY SCARY. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT I PURCHASED IN MARCH, 2010. THE LAST 4 TIMES I HAVE FILLED MY VEHICLE UP WITH GAS, WHEN I STOP, A HUGE AMOUNT OF GAS COMES SHOOTING BACK OUT OF THE VEHICLE SOAKING ME, MY CLOTHES, MY VEHICLE AND POURING ONTO THE GROUND. THE LAST TIME I EVEN ATTEMPTED TO BEGIN PUTTING GAS INTO THE VEHILE, IT SHOT OUT ON ME, VEHICLE AND GROUND. IT DID THIS 3 TIMES WHILE I WAS TRYING TO PUT GAS IN MY VEHICLE. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR MY PERSONAL SAFETY. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS AT NO COST?
