ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
2006 DODGE DURANGO ENGINE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. MY DURANGO SHUT OFF TWICE IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS DURING TURNS. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF IT IS LEFT OR RIGHT TURN. IT SHUTS OFF AFTER STOPPING AT STOP SIGN AND THEN BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE. THE DODGE DEALER CAN NOT FIND A REASON FOR COMPLETE ENGINE STALL. THE DEALER HAS FLASHED THE PCM. THE ENGINE STALLED NEXT DAY AFTER FLASHING THE PCM. WHEN ENGINE STALLS THERE IS COMPLETE LOSS OF STEERING. IN ONE YEAR OF OWNERSHIP THERE HAS BEEN FIVE ENGINE SHUT OFFS. IN EFFORT TO FIX DEALER CHARGED ME FOR COMPLETE FUEL SYSTEM CLEANING WHICH WAS NOT NEEDED. A THROTTLE BODY SERVICE WHICH WAS NOT NEEDED. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT ALSO BELONGED TO THE 2004/2005 DURANGO AND IS STILL PRESENT IN THE 2006 DURANGO. THE FLASH TO THE PCM DOES NOT WORK. *TR

IM SICK OF GAS COMING BACK OUT OF GAS FILLER NECK I CAN NOT BELIEVE DODGE HAS NOT ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM AS THEY DID ON THE 2005 DURANGOS I BELIEVE THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS AND GAS IS A KNOWN CARCINOGEN IT HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL UP I WAS TOLD AT THE DEALER THERE WAS NO RECALL IM JUST TIRED OF IT. *TR

2006 DODGE DURANGO - EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK TO FULL, AFTER IT KICKS OFF, GAS SPEWS OUT OF THE TANK AND GOES ALL OVER THE PLACE. IT SPRAYS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND ON TO WHOEVER IS FILLING UP THE TANK. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AS GAS HAS SPRAYED ON TO MY FACE AND MOUTH. I HAVE SEEN DODGE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH EARLIER YEARS AND HAS RECTIFIED THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE FOR 2006 MODELS. I HAVE TO SLOWLY FILL UP THE TANK AND TRY TO QUIT BEFORE IT REACHES FULL TO AVOID THE GAS SPRAYING ON ME. THIS IS ONGOING AND NOT JUST A SINGLE INCIDENCE. *TR

DURING EVERY FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION, GAS SPITS OUT OF THE TANK OF MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT GAS STATION OR WHICH PUMP I USE. I HAVE TRIED PULLING THE PUMP OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUELING TO VENT THE TANK AND THIS DOESN'T WORK EITHER. THERE WAS A RECALL OF 2005 DODGE DURANGOS FOR THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM. OBVIOUSLY IT WAS NOT CORRECTED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT EVERY TIME I FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION, WHEN THE TANK GETS FULL, THE NOZZLE CLICKS AND A RUSH OF GAS SPILLS OUT. THE DODGE DEALER SAYS IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER A RECALL COVERING THE SAME PROBLEM ON OTHER VEHICLES. I SEE THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2005 DURANGO'S BUT NOT 2006'S. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THIS COMPLAINT ON THE INTERNET AND FIND MANY 2006 DURANGO OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM SERIOUSLY CONCERNED THAT THERE WILL BE AN EXPLOSION DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF GAS SPRAYING OUT. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THEY WERE "UNABLE TO DUPLICATE" THE PROBLEM, BUT IT HAPPENS AT EVERY TIME I FILL UP AT EVERY GAS STATION THAT I HAVE BEEN USING. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
EVERY TIME I GAS UP MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO, THE GAS PUMP WILL SHUT OFF FROM BEING FULL, BUT A COUPLE SECONDS LATER, GAS WILL SPRAY OUT OF THE TANK WITH THE NOZZLE STILL IN PLACE, USUALLY SPRAYING MYSELF OR MY WIFE AND GASOLINE WITH THEN RUN DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR CAUSING ISSUES WITH PAINT, BUT ALSO LEAVING A PUDDLE OF GASOLINE. I FEAR THIS IS A HAZARD, NOT ONLY FOR THE REASONS OF A POSSIBLE FIRE, BUT I FEAR THAT THE GASOLINE ON MYSELF OR MY WIFE WILL IGNITE OR THAT IT WILL OTHERWISE CAUSE RESPIRATORY OR SKIN ISSUES. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW, JUST AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED (OF COURSE). I FEAR NO RECOURSE WITH DODGE, THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY, BUT I KNOW THIS HAPPENS TO MANY MANY OTHERS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT WHEN FILLING WITH FUEL THE FUEL COMES POURING OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME I LET THE PUMP TRY TO STOP ON IT OWN. I TRIED MANY GAS STATIONS TO MAKE SURE IT WAS NOT THE PUMPS FAULT AND FOUND IT HAPPENS AT ALL GAS STATIONS. THIS IS NOT SAFE AS QUOTE OF FUEL COMES OUT THAT COULD START A FIRE OR SPLASH INTO THE FACE OF A SHORT PERSON. I TALKED TO THE DEALER SHIP AND THEY SAY I MUST REPLACE THE TANK AND POSSIBLY THE FUEL FILLER TUBE. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED WITH FUEL. *TR

UPON FILLING UP MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO VIN#[XXX] AT THE GAS STATION GAS SPRAYS OUT OF THE INLET FOLLOWING PUMP SHUT-OFF. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO CHRYSLER TO FIX AND EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A WIDELY KNOW PROBLEM FROM MY RESEARCH THEY DO NOT COVER IT OUTSIDE OF HAVING A TECHNICAL BULLETIN TO AID IN THE REPAIR. I HAVE BEEN SPRAYED ON MY PERSON SEVERAL TIMES WITH GASOLINE BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM AND ON OCCASION HAVE TO INFORM THE ATTENDANTS OF THE SPILL DUE TO THE VOLUME OF GASOLINE. I SEE THIS AS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED ON THIS YEAR AND THE OTHERS THAT IT EFFECTS AS IT IS AN OBVIOUS AND DANGEROUS DESIGN ISSUE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I PURCHASED A 2006 DODGE DURANGO 4X4 LIMITED WITH A 5.7L V8 ON 13 MAY 2010. ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS FROM 13-26 MAY, THE VALVE ASSEMBLY FAILED TO CLOSE ON THE GAS TANK FILLER PIPE WHILE REFUELING RESULTING IN FUEL OVERFLOW AND SPILLAGE. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED IN THE 2005 MODEL YEAR FOR DURANGOS IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 05V034000. AFTER CHECKING THIS WEBSITE AND DODGE'S, NO RECALLS FOR THIS DEFECT EXIST FOR MY VIN. *TR
