JUST PURCHASED 2006 DODGE DURANGO SLT ON TUESDAY, JUNE 22, 2011. WAS FILLING GAS TANK THIS EVENING, PUMP SHUT OFF AND ABOUT 1/2 A GALLON OF GASOLINE SPRAYED OUT OF THE VEHICLE, ALL OVER ME AND THE GROUND. THOUGHT I DID SOMETHING WRONG UNTIL I GOT HOME AND RESEARCHED THIS INCIDENT AND SEE THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON THING WITH THESE DURANGO'S AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT IF THIS WOULD HAVE SPRAYED INTO MY EYES? WHY WON'T CHRYSLER DO A RECALL ON THESE AND FIX THEM. I AM GOING TO BE SCARED NOW TO PUMP GAS WHEN I NEED IT!! I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 2 DAYS NOW........... PLEASE HELP US DURANGO OWNERS GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHRYSLER NEEDS TO HAVE A SERIOUS RECALL AND GET THIS FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. IT'S DOCUMENTED QUITE WELL THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE? *TR

I JUST PURCHASED A USED 2006 DODGE DURANGO. EVERYTIME I FILL IT UP WITH GASOLINE, WHEN IT GETS FULL, GASOLINE OVERFLOWS FROM THE FILLER TUBE AND GETS ON THE GROUND AND ME. I HAVE READ ON DODGE FORUMS THAT THIS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG DURANGO OWNERS AND I FEEL IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TT

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED WITH THE 5.7L MOTOR. EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS IT SPEWS OUT EXCESS GASOLINE. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GAS STATION. THE VEHICLE HAS 72,500 MILES ON IT AND THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED FOR THE LAST 12,000 MILES. I HAVE CONTACTED VARIOUS DEALERS AND I GO THRU THE SAME ROUTINE: VIN REFERENCE, THEN THEY PROCEED TO TELL ME IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, AND THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE ISSUE, AND TO CONTACT DODGE CORPORATE FOR ASSISTANCE. WHEN I CONTACT CORPORATE I FOLLOW THE STEPS AND THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THEY CANNOT ASSIST ME AT THAT TIME. I CAN NEVER TALK TO A REAL PERSON. I HAVE A FAMILY AND I DO NOT WANT A FIRE LEADING TO MY FAMILIES ENDANGERMENT. *TR

WE HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO AND WE HAVE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH IT. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STOPPED WORKING ALONG WITH THE RADIO, A/C, WIPERS, WINDOWS AND EVERYTHING IN THE INTERIOR. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS FIXED DURING A RECALL. WE CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD US THAT IT WAS FIXED ONCE FOR THE RECALL AND THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP WANT TO REPLACE THE CLUSTER AGAIN TO FIX THE ISSUE, BUT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT IT HAPPENING AGAIN WHILE MY WIFE AND CHILDREN ARE ON THE ROAD AGAIN WITH NO LIGHTS!!!! *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE FUEL TANK ONE YEAR AGO. EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK, AFTER THE NOZZLE AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, GAS SPEWS BACK OUT OF THE CAR ONTO ME AND THE EXTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. MAY 2011 A SERVICE SHOP FOUND THAT A SOLENOID HAD FAILED AND REPLACED IT. THEY ALSO FOUND THAT THE SURGE CANISTER WAS HOLDING GASOLINE, AS IT LIKELY IS FILLED WHEN THE TANK SPEWS GAS BACK OUT. REPLACING THE SOLENOID DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM, AND THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN INFORMED ME THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL REPORTS OF THIS OCCURRING WITH OTHER DODGE DURANGOS, BUT THAT MY YEAR VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN RECALLED. ONLY 2005 DURANGOS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM. I REPORTED THIS TO CHRYSLER ON MAY 24, AND THE CASE MANAGER CONTACTED ME ON MAY 31 TO REPORT THAT CHRYSLER WAS CHOOSING NOT TO ASSIST IN REPLACING THE FUEL TANK, AND AT THIS TIME HAS NOT RECALLED FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

WHEN FUELING MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO; THE PUMP WILL CLICK OFF AUTOMATICALLY THEN GAS WILL OVERFLOW FROM THE TANK. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AND HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM SINCE DAY 1 OF OWNERSHIP. DODGE RECALLED THE 2005 MODEL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I CONTACTED DODGE; AND TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. $1043 PLUS TAX FOR PARTS AND LABOR TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK REPLACED. WHY DID THEY RECALL THE 2005 BUT NOT THE 2006 FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD !!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELP 2006 OWNERS GET THIS RESOLVED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FUELING, IF ALLOWED TO FILL UP, AT THE POINT OF FULL/PUMP CUT OFF, GASOLINE WILL SPRAY OUT OF THE FILL TUBE AROUND THE NOZZLE AND CREATE A LARGE PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. THIS WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST, BUT HAS SINCE BECOME AN EVERY TIME OCCURRENCE. NOT ONLY AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD, THIS POSES SERIOUS RISKS TO THE PASSENGERS (ESP. CHILDREN)

GAS OVER FLOWING AT THE FUEL PUMP WHEN FILLING UP. THE PUMP WOULDN'T AUTOMATICALLY STOP TILL AFTER IT WAS OVER FLOWING. GAS SPILLED ON THE PAINT AND HANDS, CLOTHS IF YOUR STANDING THERE AND ON THE GROUND CAUSE A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. TOOK TO DEALER SAID IT WAS THE GAS TANK. THEY REPLACED IT AND NO MORE PROBLEMS. I DON'T HAVE THE OLD GAS TANK.$750.00 FOR THE REPAIR. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE AUTOMATIC FUEL SHUT-OFF VALVE, LOCATED INSIDE THE FUEL TANK, DOES NOT WORK. THIS ALLOWS FOR FUEL TO SPLASH OUT OF THE TANK EACH TIME YOU FILL THE TANK. FROM THE RESEARCH THAT I'VE DONE, THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM FOR CHRYSLER PRODUCTS, WHICH RESULTED IN THE RECALL OF SEVERAL THOUSAND 2005 MODEL YEAR DODGE DURANGOS. THE PROBLEM PERSISTS IN MODEL YEARS 2006 AND 2007 FOR DODGE DURANGOS, CHRSYLER ASPENS, JEEP WRANGLERS AND JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AS THE FUEL SPLASH UNEXPECTEDLY. *TR

THE FUEL LINE CHECK VALVE STICKS ALLOWING GASOLINE TO SPIT BACK OUT WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. THIS IS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO, BUT THE PROBLEM IS IDENTICAL TO THE 2005 MODEL RECALL ON THE SAME ISSUE, AND WHICH APPEARS WELL DOCUMENTED ELSEWHERE, INCLUDING THIS WEBSITE WHICH SHOWS THE SAME ISSUE. HTTP://WWW.SAFETYRESEARCH.NET/2011/03/23/FUEL-SPIT-BACK-CONTINUES-TO-PLAGUE-CHRYSLER-VEHICLES/ MY LOCAL DEALER QUOTED ME $1,200 TO REPLACE THE VALVE, AND CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE SAID THAT THEY "MIGHT' PAY A GOODWILL PAYMENT TO REIMBURSE ME IF I GOT IT FIXED. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO ESPECIALLY IF IT IS RECALLED LIKE IT SHOULD BE IF THE 2005 MODEL WAS FOR THE SAME REASON. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE LAST 5 TIMES I'VE FILLED IT UP, THE GAS HAS OVERFLOWED EVEN THOUGH THE AUTO SHUT-OFF CLICKED ON THE PUMP HANDLE. THE FIRST TIME I THOUGHT IT MUST BE THE PUMP, BUT NOW THAT IT'S HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES, I'M AM VERY WORRIED AND WOULD LIKE THIS FIXED BY DODGE. MY VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST BUT IS DOING THE SAME AS THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED.

WHEN I REFUEL MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO AFTER THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF THERE IS A BURST OF FUEL THAT WILL FLOW OUT OF MY GAS TANK AND LEAK ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR. THIS CAN BE EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS TO MYSELF AND THE CHILDREN IN THE CAR IF A SPARK IS PRESENT. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS EVERYTIME I REFUEL MY VEHICLE ALL THE WAY AND HAS NOW CAUSE THE PAINT TO ALSO TO START COMING OFF UNDER THE GAS TANK. *TR
