FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE FILING UP WITH GAS, WHEN THE PUMP CLICKS OFF WHEN IT IS FULL GAS SPEWS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK WHILE THE GAS NOZZLE IS STILL IN THERE.. APPARENTLY THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM AND A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED ON 2006-2007 MODELS BUT NOT 2005'S LIKE MINE.. IT WOULD BE NICE TO BE ABLE TO FILL MY TRUCK UP WITH GAS AND NOT HAVE IT SPEW OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY TRUCK AND THE GROUND.. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED BACK IN 2009. I AM IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY AND BOUGHT FROM A REPUTABLE DEALER AND CHECKED HISTORY FOR ANY CRASHES. ALSO NO SIGNS OF ANY BODY REPAIR OR ANYTHING BEING NOT ORIGINAL IN THE FUEL SYSTEM. I LIKE MANY OTHERS CANNOT FILL UP MY FUEL TANK WITHOUT GETTING SPRAYED WITH GASOLINE! ANYTIME THE GAS STATION PUMP IS ALLOWED TO SHUT ITSELF OFF IT SPRAYS AT LEAST A HALF GALLON OF FUEL OUT. THIS IS AT EVERY GAS STATION I HAVE EVER GONE TO. THAT MEANS EVERY TIME I HAVE FILLED UP IN THE LAST 2.5 YEARS HAS GIVEN ME THE HAZARD OF A SIGNIFICANT FUEL SPILL! THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM. IN THE PAST WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIPS THAT MY VIN WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL BUT THAT IT MAY BE EXPANDED AND TO JUST BE PATIENT. SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET AND MANY FORUMS IT IS CLEAR THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE WITH THE SAME ISSUE THAT IS NOT UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL. THIS RECALL SHOULD PROBABLY BE REVIEWED AND EXPANDED TO COVER ALL OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY WIFE AND I PURCHASED THIS PRE-OWNED VEHICLE 10/29/2011. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME WE FILL THE TANK. THE FUEL HANDLE CLICKS TO SHUT OF THE FLOW OF GASOLINE TO THE TANK, THEN ABOUT A SECOND LATER, THE FUEL BEGINS TO SPEW BACK OUT OF THE TANK, DRAINING DOWN THE EXTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE, COVERING THE GROUND, AND MYSELF AS I STAND NEARBY. EACH TIME I ESTIMATE BETWEEN 1/4 & 1/2 GALLON OF FUEL IS WASTED. I VERIFIED WITH MY LOCAL CHRYSLER/DODGE/JEEP 5 STAR DEALER THAT MY VIN ISN'T INCLUDED IN THE LIMITED RECALL FROM YEARS PAST. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS MY WIFE RUNS A HOME DAYCARE AND CHILDREN ARE FREQUENTLY IN THE DURANGO WHERE FUMES ARE PREVELANT AFTER THE SPILL. *TT

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHENEVER I FILL THE GAS TANK, GAS COMES POURING BACK OUT AT ME. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK! THERE'S AT LEAST A 1/4 TO 1/2 A GALLON OF GAS THAT COMES POURING OUT. NOT ONLY DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS WASTED FUEL I ALSO AM PUTTING SEVERAL PEOPLE AT RISK OF A FIRE EVERY TIME I FILL UP DUE TO THE UNSAFE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM. I EXPECT THAT WHEN I PURCHASE A VEHICLE THAT IT'S GOING TO BE SAFE. DOESN'T CHRYSLER HAVE THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFETY IN MIND....IF SO, CORRECT THE PROBLEM!

ADD ONE MORE COMPLAINT TO THE OTHERS ABOUT GAS SPEWING OUT WHEN YOU FILL UP THE TANK. THIS IS RIDICULOUS, I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF A RECALL, ONLY FOUND OUT ABOUT IT AFTER TALKING TO ANOTHER DURANGO OWNER. I HAVE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING ON ANY OTHER VEHICLE BUT IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT WITH THE DURANGO. I WILL BE CONTACTING OUR DEALER (AND OTHERS IF NEEDED) TO SEE IF WE QUALIFY FOR THIS RECALL. HAVE HELD OFF TAKING IT FOR REPAIR AFTER HAVING TO PAY $800 ON A LOCKED UP STEERING WHEEL ON A 3 YR OLD VEHICLE. AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE $300 KEYS THAT STOP WORKING DUE TO A KNOWN DESIGN FLAW. *TR

UPON FUELING MY VEHICLE UP ON A REGULAR BASIS; THE FUEL PUMP WILL SHUT OFF AT TIME OF FILL UP, BUT THEN A BACKLASH OF FUEL OCCURS TO BE BACKING UP IN THE FUEL PIPE AND SPRAYING/GUSHING OUT ALL OVER MY VEHICLE. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS AND PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS PERTAINING TO THIS ISSUE. WHY HASN'T ANYONE REALIZED THAT THIS IS MOST DANGEROUS AND "ALL VEHICLES" CLAIMING TO THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT NO COST TO THE VEHICLE OWNER, SIMPLY A DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING AND THUS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY CORP. RECALL INFO # IS 09V003000 PLEASE RESPOND AND KINDLY INVESTIGATE THIS SITUATION AND ADVISE ME OF MY NEXT STEP WITH LOCAL DEALER. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO AND AFTER FILLING WITH FUEL THE GAS WILL COME POURING BACK OUT OF THE FILLER SPOUT. I HAD MY MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND HE CLEANED THE FILTER BUT FILLED IT AGAIN TODAY AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I HAD MY VIN CHECKED BUT IS NOT INCLUDED IN DODGES RECALL. THE DODGE DEALER QUOTED JUST UNDER $1,000 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
DODGE DURANGO FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE - SAFETY RECALL: I OWN A 2005MY DODGE DURANGO THAT HAS HAD ISSUES WITH FUEL SPILLING OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE AFTER FILLING AT A GAS STATION. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED, RESULTING IN 1-2 SECONDS BACKFLOW OUT OF THE FUEL TANK AND RUNNING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE OR ONTO MY HANDS. MY BROTHER-IN-LAW, WHO WORKS AT CHRYSLER, OWNS A 2008 MY DURANGO WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE INFORMATION ON CHRYSLER SAFETY RECALL H45 AND E01 THAT SEEM TO BE DIRECTLY RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INVESTIGATION, THEY DID NOTHING AND CLAIMED THERE WAS NO RECALL AVAILABLE FOR THIS ISSUE AND PROVIDED ME WITH AN ESTIMATE TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK (~$900). I WOULD LIKE MY ISSUE INCLUDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THE OTHER RELATED SAFETY RECALLS. PLEASE CONTACT ME. *TR
