FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THE FUEL TANK ON MY DODGE DURANGO SPEWS GAS OUT ONTO THE VEHICLE AND PAVEMENT AT THE END OF FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. THIS BEGAN OCCURRING ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO AND HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE GAS COULD IGNITE, PLUS IT IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP (ROGER WILLIAMS DODGE) IS REFUSING TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I FIND THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH DURANGOS. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS OBVIOUSLY A FACTORY DEFECT. I WANT THE GAS TANK REPLACED IMMEDIATELY ON MY VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I BOUGHT MY DURANGO OVER A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. THIS WAS IN THE SPRING WHEN WINTER ROLLED AROUND AND COOLER MONTHS ALL FUEL PUMPS WOULD OVER FILL THE FUEL TANK. PROBLEM WENT AWAY IN THE SPRING THEN THIS FALL/WINTER THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AGAIN. IT ACTS AS IF THE FUEL VAPOR RECOVERY SYSTEM IS BECOMING RESTRICTED WITH THE COOLER TEMPERATURES. CAUSING FUEL TO BE BURPED OUT AFTER THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. *TR

WHEN MY FUEL TANK IS EMPTY AND I REFILL THE TANK, AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS OFF GAS POURS OUT OF THE TANK. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 7 WEEKS. ALSO SOMETIMES WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE IT DOESN'T START BUT CONTINUES TO TURN ITSELF OVER AND OVER EVEN AFTER THE KEY IS SHUT OFF. THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY AND DODGE REFUSES TO FIX EITHER ONE ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, BECAUSE IT CANNOT BE DUPLICATED AT THE SHOP. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
HI, MY NAME IS [XXX] , AND I NEED SOME HELP. JANUARY 9TH 2007 I PURCHASED A 2006 DODGE DURANGO FROM BUDDY JONES FORD IN GREENWOOD MISSISSIPPI. ON MAY 31ST 2008, THE TRUCK BURN TO THE GROUND. THIS OCCURRED WHILE MY GIRLFRIEND WAS DRIVING IT; SHE BARELY MADE IT OUT OF THE TRUCK IN TIME. NEEDLESS TO SAY I WAS AT A LOST OF UNDERSTANDING HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPEN. SO I IMMEDIATELY STARTED SURF THE INTERNET TO FIND INFORMATION ABOUT THIS BRAND OF VEHICLE. I DISCOVERED THAT THIS PARTICULAR SUV HAD AN INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER THAT WOULD OVERHEAT AND SOMETIMES IGNITE INTO FLAMES. I ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THERE WERE MANY OTHER CONSUMERS THAT HAD EXPERIENCED THEY'RE DODGE DURANGO'S BURNING TO GROUND, WHILE JUST SITTING IN THE GARAGE. SO I THEN CONTACTED CHRYSLER TO PLEAD MY CASE. AT THIS TIME THEY TOLD ME ABOUT THE RECALL, AND THAT MY VEHICLE WAS ONE OF THE VEHICLES IN QUESTION. THEN THEY AGREED TO SEND A LOCAL CONTRACTED INSPECTOR TO CHECK OUT MY VEHICLE. THE CONCLUSION OF HIS INSPECTION WAS THAT THE TRUCK BURNED THROUGH NO FAULT OF CHRYSLER'S DO NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO PROVE THEM WRONG, OR HAVE IT INSPECTED MYSELF. MY INSURANCE HAD LAPSED AT THAT TIME, AND I KNOW THAT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY. BUT NOW I AM STUCK WITH A TRUCK THAT IS NOT USABLE, AND THE COMPANY THAT FINANCED IT IS LOOKING FOR THEY'RE MONTHLY PAYMENT. WITH I CAN NOT AFFORD BECAUSE I HAD TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE TO GET BACK AND FORWARD TO WORK. SO I HAVE DONE A VOLUNTEER REPOSSESSION AND THEY WILL PICK THE TRUCK UP SOON. ONCE THEY GET IT I STILL WILL BE FORCED TO PAY FOR IT THROUGH GARNISHMENT, WHICH I CAN'T AFFORD. IN THE OTHER CASES IN WHICH THIS SAME TRUCK BURNED TO THE GROUND, CHRYSLER DETERMINED THAT IT WAS NOT THEY'RE FAULT EVEN WITH SUCH A RECALL ON THEM. VEHICLES DO NOT JUST BURN UP FOR NO REASON, SO PLEASE HELP DEAL WITH CHRYSLER. ALSO, I DID NOT RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE UNTIL JUNE 16, 2008. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
