ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
CLICKING NOISE UNDER HOOD, WAS TOLD BY DODGE DEALERSHIP THAT IT HAD TO DO WITH THE EXHAUST OR EXHAUST MANIFOLD. WAS TOLD AT TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS THAT IT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. ACCORDING TO SEARCHES, IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. NOISE GETS LOUDER THE MORE YOU ACCELERATE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER
MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO IS SPILLING FUEL FROM THE FILLER NECK UPON FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT MY DURANGO IS NOT INVOLVED WITH A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE USING MY VIN#. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNFAIR. MY DURANGO HAS A MANF DATE OF 10/04. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT DODGE NEEDS TO FIX REGARDLESS IF AFFECTED TANK RELIEF VALVE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED AT A CERTAIN DATE. DODGE NEEDS TO EXPAND THE MANF DATES FOR THESE RECALLS AFFECTING THE TANK RELIEF VALVE ISSUE. IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX AN ISSUE SUCH AS THIS DUE TO THE SAFETY, FIRE AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS THAT OCCUR EACH AND EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHENEVER I FILL UP THE GAS TANK THE GAS WILL COME SPEWING OUT AFTER IT FILLS UP. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED IT GOT ALL OVER MY CLOTHES, SHOES AND SIDE OF THE CAR. THOUGHT IT WAS A FLUKE WITH THE STATION, BUT IT HAPPENS EVERYWHERE I GO. HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL UP. TOOK IT TO A DEALER BECAUSE I HEARD ABOUT A RECALL BUT WAS TOLD MINE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AND WOULD COST NEARLY 800 DOLLARS TO FIX. I DON'T THINK SO. THIS KIND OF PROBLEM SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. PHONED "CUSTOMER SERVICE" AT DODGE/CHRYSLER AND WAS ALSO GIVEN THE SAME STORY ABOUT IT NOT BEING IN THE RECALL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *TR

I HAVE NOT YET FIXED THE PROBLEM WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT WAS A INLET CHECK VALVE/ FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY. THE COST OF THE REPAIRS IS AROUND $1000 .

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER
THIS PROBLEM BEGAN IN JULY 2008. EVERYTIME I TRY TO PUT FUEL IN MY VEHICLE IT ENDS UP SPEWING BACK OUT OF THE TANK ALL OVER ME, THE VEHICLE AND THE PAVEMENT. MY DEALER LOOKED INTO IT AND SAID IT WAS A VALVE PROBLEM BUT WOULD REQUIRE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE TANK WITH A COST OF AT LEAST $1000. I HAVE SEEN OTHER 2005 DODGE DURANGO'S GETTING RECALLS BUT MY VIN DOES NOT COME UP AS GETTING THIS RECALL. THIS IS UNFAIR THAT I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS OTHER 05 DURANGOS BUT AM NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THIS IS POTENTIALLY AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND I CAN'T GET ANY ASSISTANCE FROM DODGE ON THIS MATTER. CAN YOU HELP? *TR

GAS GUSHES OUT OF THE FILL NOZZLE OF MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO LTD SPRAYING THE VEHICLE, GROUND, GAS PUMP AND MYSELF WITH GASOLINE.

I CONTACTED DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS TOLD THAT SINCE THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED IN DECEMBER OF 2004 AND MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BY ANY SUBSEQUENT INCIDENTS AND WERE NOT INTERESTED IN ANY ENVIRONMENTAL OR SAFETY ISSUES THAT I WAS HAVING. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. I RECENTLY TOOK TO A CERTIFIED CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AS I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE GAS NOT SHUTTING OFF WHEN PUMPING. FUEL SPILLS EVERYWHERE, ALL OVER THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND NEXT TO THE PUMPS. AS THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, AS WELL AS FIRE SAFETY, THE DEALER RECOMMENDED I GET THE GAS TANK REPLACED. THEY REPORT NEVER HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH DURANGOS. I WENT HOME AND RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND A RECALL FOR 2005 DODGE DURANGOS AND FOUND A RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM I AM HAVING. THE RECALL IS FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED FROM 10/13/2004-11/30/2004. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED ON 12/1/2004, ONE DAY AFTER THE CUT OFF FOR THE RECALL. I CALLED THE COMPANY AND THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS A SPARK COULD IGNITE THE FUEL SPILLED ON THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND, AND THEY REFUSED TO INCLUDE MY VEHICLE IN THE RECALL. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM
MY DODGE 2005 SLT, 4.8L (74,000 MILES) HAS CONTINUED TO STALL AT STOP SIGNS, TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL THINGS DONE(SPARK PLUGS, FUEL ADDITIVES, PREMIUM GAS, FUEL FILTER) TO THE CAR, BUT STILL CONTINUES. I AM UPSET TO SEE THAT THERE HAS BEEN NOTHING DONE TO CORRECT THIS. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER DODGE DURANGO OWNERS IN THE SAME SITUATION WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AS I. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THE GAS FILLER PIPE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF HAS NEVER WORKED PROPERLY ON MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO SINCE IT WAS NEW. WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS FULL, THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF, BUT THE FUEL WASHES BACK OUT OF THE TANK AND ONTO THE GROUND. THE DEALER CLAIMED IT WAS FIXED IN A RECALL PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE IN 2005 ACCORDING TO THEIR "COMPUTER RECORDS". OBVIOUSLY, FROM MY EXPERIENCE IN FILLING THE TANK, THE "RECALL FIX" DID NOT WORK--OR, WORSE, THE DEALER DID NOT DO THE FIX AS THEY CLAIMED. SPILLING GASOLINE IS DANGEROUS--DODGE HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE THIS REPAIR WORK, EVEN IF IT TAKES ANOTHER RECALL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SHUT OFF VALVE IN HER FUEL TANK DID NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY. SHE NOTICED THE ISSUE ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. WHEN PLACING FUEL INTO THE VEHICLE AND USING THE AUTOMATIC DEVICE THAT SUPPORTS THE PUMP HANDLE, GASOLINE WOULD SPILL OUT AND SPLASH BACK BECAUSE THE VALVE WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. THE CONTACT FELT THAT THIS WAS A SAFETY HAZARD. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBERS 09V003000 AND 05V034000. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WOULD CHECK AFTER THE OIL CHANGE. AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, BUT IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 56,957 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 47,000.

OUR 2005 DODGE DURANGO GAS TALK OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE ISSUE I DISCOVERED THERE IS A RECALL ON MODELS MADE THE MONTH PRIOR TO OURS. AFTER CONTACTING THE LOCAL SERVICE CENTER, I WAS TOLD TO CALL THE DODGE CORP. ONLY TO HAVE THEM TELL ME THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD HELP ME WITH. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT ON EVERY FILLUP COVERS THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND WITH UP TO QUART, POSSIBLE MORE OF GASOLINE. I DID ATTEMPT TO CALL THE COMPANY ANOTHER TIME TO CORRECT THIS HOPING TO REACH ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL THAT MIGHT HELP. I WAS ALLOWED TO TALK WITH A FLOOR SUPERVISOR WHO ONCE AGAIN ASSURED ME THAT SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING UP AT ANY GAS STATION, THE PUMP WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AND GASOLINE SHOOTS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT SHOOTS OUT UNDER PRESSURE. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME THAT I FILL UP FOR APPROXIMATELY THE LAST TEN FILL UPS. THERE ARE TWO RECALL CAMPAIGNS REGARDING THIS EXACT ISSUE, YET CHRYSLER DENIES MY CLAIM ON THE BASIS THAT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN EITHER CAMPAIGN. I SPOKE TO THE NHTSA OFFICE OF DEFECTS INVESTIGATION TODAY, AND THEY RECOMMENDED CONTACTING THE STATE'S ATTORNEY GENERAL AND THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION. PRESENTLY THERE ARE OVER 40 OTHER OUTSTANDING COMPLAINTS WITH THE NHTSA REGARDING THIS EXACT ISSUE. IT APPEARS THAT CHRYSLER IS SHIRKING ITS RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR THIS VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE. BY THE WAY, IT IS CHRYSLER ALONE THAT DETERMINES THE APPLICABLE VIN NUMBERS. *TR

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO SPILL GAS WHENEVER IT NEAR THE END OF FILLING CREATING A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD ALSO NOW WHEN EVER I AM COMING TO A STOP OF A SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE STALLS WHICH KILLS THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. TOTALLY UNSAFE AND WHEN YOU CALL CHRYSLER THEY SAY THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I AM NOT GOING TO PAY FOR REPAIRS THAT ARE CLEARLY RECALL ITEMS. THE WEB IS LITTERED WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS AND NO ONE CARES. *TR
