2005 DODGE DURANGO: WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE TO FULL THE VEHICLE SPITS GAS BACK AT YOU AND THIS ISN'T A SMALL AMOUNT EITHER. THIS OCCURS MOSTLY WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE TO FULL. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN DECEMBER 2008. THERE IS A RECALL NUMBER: 09V003000 AND 05V034000; CHRYSLER CLAIMS MY VEHICLE HAD THE RECALLED PERFORMED, BUT I THINK THEY NEVER FIXED THE PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT I HAD 3 SEPARATE INCIDENTS, AT 3 DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS IN WHICH I WOULD GO TO FILL THE TANK AND GAS CONTINUES TO OVERFLOW. I CHECKED FOR RECALLS REGARDING THIS AND FOUND THAT CHRYSLER HAS ONE FOR THIS, WHICH IS H45 OR 09V003000. I NOTIFIED CHRYSLER AT THE NUMBER GIVEN (REF #18975878) AND WAS ADVISED THAT EVENTHOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS NOT IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, I COULD GO TO A CERTIFIED DEALER AND PAY THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND IF THEY FOUND THAT I HAD THE DEFECT DESCRIBED, THEY WOULD COVER THE REPAIR. I WENT TO HOLDEN DODGE IN DOVER, DE AND THEY FOUND THE VEHICLE TO HAVE THE EXACT PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL WHERE MY INLET CHECK VALVE STICKS OPEN. WHEN THEY CONTACTED CHRYSLER, HOLDEN DODGE WAS ADVISED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WAS THE 3RD OWNER AND THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE REPAIR. IT SHOULD NOT MATTER IF I WAS THE 50TH OWNER, IT IS THEIR DEFECT!! I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS RECALL WAS FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED IN OCTOBER 2004 AND MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN JANUARY 2005. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THEY CORRECTED THIS MALFUNCTION IN 3 MONTHS SINCE I AM EXPERIENCING THIS DEFECT. I WANT CHRYSLER TO HONOR THE TANK REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY SINCE A CERTIFIED DEALER HAS CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS MY PROBLEM. I OAID THE $80.00 DIAGNOSTIC FEE AS ADVISED AND CHRYSLER DID NOT HOLD TO THEIR PROMISE WHEN I ORIGINALLY CALLED. WAS GIVEN A QUOTE OF $669.00 TO REPLACE HE TANK, WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD. SO RIGHT NOW, I DO NOT FILL THE TANK WITH GAS. PLEASE HELP ME TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED AND HAVE CHRYSLER HONOR THEIR DEFECT!!!! *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR INSPECTION. ALTHOUGH HE EXPERIENCED IDENTICAL FAILURE, HIS VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER WAS EXCLUDED FROM RECALL CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP). THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 64,841. THE VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER WAS UNAVAILABLE.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
BOUGHT A 2005 DODGE DURANGO AND CHECKING RECALLS FOUND THAT THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH REFUEL OVERFILLING WAS RECALLED. I CONTACTED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. HOWEVER I COULD CHANGE IT FOR A CHARGE. EVERY SINGLE TIME I FILL UP, I MUST WATCH AND STOP IT BEFORE IT IS FULL OR GAS SPURTS OUT ALL OVER THE AREA. THIS IS DEFINITELY A FIRE HAZARD. I FEEL I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A PROBLEM THAT IS BEING RECALLED. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN WITH WITHOUT WARNING THE VEHICLE STALLED. HE WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. A TECHNICIAN FROM THE DEALER CONCLUDED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY INCREASED THE LEVELS OF CARBON WHICH CAUSED LOW AIR FLOW AT IDLE. THE PCM WAS RESET. THE FAILURE RESURFACED, SO SHE CONTACTED THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE AIS WAS SLOW, SO THEY REPAIRED THE IDLE AND THE AIS CONTROL MOTOR. SHE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER 5 WEEKS LATER. THE TECHNICIANS DISCOVERED THAT THE MINIMUM AIR STEERING WAS TOO LOW. THEY ADJUSTED THE SIR SETTING AND REPLACED THE IDLE ARM MOTOR. HOWEVER AT RELATIVELY LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE WOULD CONTINUE TO STALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19716. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 48000.

RELATED TO NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN 09V003000, NHTSA RQ08005... MY DODGE DURANGO - EXACTLY SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED YET APPARENTLY NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. INTERNET SEARCH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT SEVERAL HUNDREDS OF OTHER DURANGO OWNERS HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON-GOING PROBLEM OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THIS IS REGARDING THE LATEST SAFETY RECALL NOTICE H45 TO MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO SUV TO THE FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE. SINCE RECEIVING THIS NOTICE I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO DODGE DEALER IN MOUNT AIRY, MARYLAND, A TOTAL OF SIX TIMES, WHICH DOES NOT INCLUDE VISITS TO ORDER PARTS AND RETURN WHEN THE PART WAS RECEIVED, APPROXIMATELY TWELVE TIME, I'VE BEEN TO THIS DEALER. I HAVE BEEN VERY PATIENT TRYING TO WORK WITH DODGE, BUT I AM LOSING PATIENCE, AS WELL AS ANY CONFIDENCE IN CHRYSLERS STATEMENT 'WE'RE SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE, BUT WE ARE SINCERELY CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR SAFETY' AS STATED IN THEIR NOTICE. EACH TIME THEY HAVE WORKED ON MY CAR, AND I FILL THE TANK, IT CONTINUES TO SPEW GAS ALL OVER ME, MY CAR, THE GROUND, UNTIL ONE DAY GIVEN THE SITUATION, GAS FUMES IGNITING AND STARTING A CRITICAL MISHAP. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ADDRESS, ON MY BEHALF. AFTER MY THIRD VISIT, I ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT CHRYSLER AT 800-853-1403, WITH MY FRUSTRATIONS, AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO, AND I NEEDED TO WORK WITH MY DEALER IN MT. AIRY TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS LATEST VISIT, OCTOBER 19, 2009, WHERE THEY SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED THE ENTIRE TANK, HAS LEFT ME WITH ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS. THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON IF FUEL IS BELOW A QUARTER OF A TANK (WHICH HAS NEVER OCCURRED BEFORE) AND THE ODOMETER STATEMENT (WHERE THE NUMBERS ARE) READS 'GASCAP', EVEN THOUGH I REPLACE THE GAS CAP NO DIFFERENTLY THAN I HAVE FOR THE PAST FIVE YEARS. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AS WELL AS ANYONE THAT HAPPENS TO BE AROUND ME AT THE TIME OF FILL-UP. PLEASE ADVISE ME ON ANYTHING THAT I CAN DO AT THIS POINT. I AM SPEAKING WITH AN ATTORNEY, BUT DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO GO THIS ROUTE. YOUR PROMPT REPLY IS REQUESTED. *TR
