FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE GAS TANK SPRAYS A LARGE AMOUNT OF GASOLINE BACK OUT OF THE TANK EVERY TIME IT IS FILLED. THIS IS A FLAMMABLE AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. IT IS THE SAME SYMPTOM AS IN THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO RECALL, YET THE '06S ARE NOT INCLUDED. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, YET DODGE WILL NOT CORRECT THIS, AND IT IS A COSTLY REPAIR TO THE CONSUMER. *TT

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:AUXILLARY TANK
WHILE FUELING THE CAR AT THE GAS STATION, THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AND A SECOND OR TWO LATER, ABOUT A HALF A GALLON OF GAS SPRAYS OUT. THIS PROBLEM KEEPS GETTING WORSE. I'VE TRIED TO FILL IT UP ON THE LOWEST SETTING AND I'VE TRIED PULLING THE NOZZLE OUT OF THE TANK SOME SO THE (HARMFUL) VAPORS CAN ESCAPE. IT IS HAPPENING ABOUT 90% OF THE TIME AND THIS IS NOT A SAFE THING TO HAVE GAS COMING FLYING BACK OUT AND GETTING OVER THE GROUND, MYSELF AND OTHERS AROUND ME. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE FOUND THERE IS A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THE 2005 MODELS AND NOW THE 2006'S ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. APPARENTLY THE PROBLEM IS STILL NOT FIXED. THIS PROBLEM IS WAY OUT OF CONTROL. I WILL BE POSTING MY YOUTUBE VIDEO ALONG WITH THE HUNDREDS OF OTHERS TO SHOW HOW UNSAFE THIS ISSUE IS AND HOW IT IS BEING HANDLED BY THE MANUFACTURER AND SAFETY ORGANIZATIONS INVOLVED. HOPEFULLY THIS ISSUE GETS RESOLVED BEFORE A REAL INJURY IS REALIZED. *JS

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FUEL SPILL / SPIT BACK DURING REFUELING DUE TO FAULTY INLET CHECK VALVE (ICV). OCCURS EVERY TIME WHEN REFILLING TANK. GAS HAS SPILLED ON MY CLOTHES AND CAUSED IRRITATION TO MY SKIN. IT ALSO SPILLS ALL OVER GROUND. THIS IS BOTH A FLAMMABLE HAZARD AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. CALLED DODGE CORPORATE CUSTOMER CARE IN 2012. THEY ASSIGNED ME A CASE # AND CASE MANAGER. THE CASE MANAGER LOOKED UP MY VIN AND SAID THE DEFECT IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL SHUT OFF VALVE IN THE VEHICLE IS MALFUNCTIONED. BOUGHT USED A FEW WEEKS AGO AND HAVE FILLED UP 3 TIMES NOW, AND EVERY TIME, THE PUMP IS NOT ACTIVATED TO SHUT OF AND FUEL FLIES OUT O THE GAS TANK, GETTING ALL OVER THE VEHICLE, THE GAS PUMP, AND SOMETIMES THE PERSON PUMPING THE GAS. HUGE SAFETY HAZARD!! *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THIS PROBLEM STARTED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT 3 1/2 YEARS OLD. IT DID NOT DO THIS FROM THE BEGINNING OF OWNERSHIP. WHEN FUELING THE CAR, IF YOU ATTEMPT TO FILL IT UP COMPLETELY, THERE IS ALWAYS A BACK SPLASH OF FUEL SPLASHING OUT OF THE FUEL TANK AND ONTO THE CAR, PAVEMENT AND OF COURSE, THE PERSON FILLING UP THE CAR. I AM NEVER ABLE TO COMPLETELY FILL UP THE CAR BECAUSE OF THIS. ALSO, WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THERE IS A CHANCE OF A FIRE OCCURRING. NOT SAFE AT ALL. MY RESEARCH FOUND THAT 2005 DODGE DURANGOS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM (CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V034000), YET NOTHING HAS EVER BEEN DONE TO FIX THE SAME ISSUE WITH 2006 MODELS. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM! *TR

WHILE FUELING THE CAR AT THE GAS STATION I KEEP CONTINUING TO HAVE BACK-FLOW OF GAS WHEN FILLING UP. IT IS HAPPENING EVERY-TIME AND I THINK THIS IS NOT A SAFE THING TO HAVE GAS COMING FLYING BACK OUT AND GETTING OVER THE GROUND. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE FOUND THERE IS A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THE 2005 MODELS AND NOW THE 2006'S ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE INQUIRY IS RQ08005 AND THE RECALL IS 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE STORAGE TANK ASSEMBLY FILLER PIPE AND CAP). WE NEED TO PRESSURE THEM TO FIX THIS ISSUE FOR ALL THE DURANGO'S. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK COMPLETELY, FUEL SPITS BACK OUT AT THE OWNER AND DOWN THE QUARTER PANEL, EVERY TIME. WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED ONE MONTH AGO. WE'VE TRIED DIFFERENT GAS PUMPS AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS OWNED BY DIFFERENT COMPANIES. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL THAT COVERS EARLIER DURANGOS. I RATHER LICK A FAT CLOWN'S [XXX] THAN BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) *JS

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THERE HAVE BEEN 2 RECALLS TO DATE ON THE MODEL YEAR 2005 DURANGO, 44,951 ALL TOGETHER. WITH MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO, FUEL SPRAYS OUT OF THE FILL TUBE BECAUSE OF A CHECK VALVE THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN RECALLED TWO DIFFERENT TIMES. NO WARNINGS, NO LETTERS TO THE OWNERS OF THE DURANGO NOW TO ADVISE THEM TO USE CAUTION. PLEASE OPEN AN INVESTIGATION NOW AND HAVE THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE CORRECTED FOR ALL OF THE DURANGO OWNERS ON THE ROAD TODAY. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCNERN. THE PROBLEM HAS ALREADY BEEN IDENTIFIED IN EARLIER MODELS, AND THERE SEEMS TO BE SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH THE 2006 MODELS AS WELL.

DURING REFUELING, WHEN THE FUEL NOZZLE STOPS, THERE IS AN OVERFLOW OF FUEL SPRAYING OUT OF THE FUEL TANK NECK. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR YOUR AGENCY TO HAVE AN INVESTIGATION? FOR AN INDIVIDUAL TO BURN WHILE PUMPING GAS DUE TO A SPARK OR EVEN WORSE, TO DIE? THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME CAR ON THE PREVIOUS YEAR, WHY IS THERE NO RECALL FOR THE 2006 MODEL SINCE IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM? *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK WITH GASOLINE, THE GAS WILL COME SPILLING OUT ONCE THE TANK IS FULL. APPROXIMATELY A PINT OF GASOLINE COMES SQUIRTING OUT, DOUSING THE HANDLE, SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND LEAVING A PUDDLE OF GASOLINE ON THE GROUND. THE ONLY WAY FOR THIS TO NOT HAPPEN IS TO PREVENT FILLING THE CAR GAS TANK. I.E. ONE CANNOT LET THE GAS OVERFLOW MECHANISM DETERMINE WHEN IT IS FULL. A RECALL WAS ALREADY MADE FOR THE 2005 DURANGO UNDER RECALL ID# 05V034000. MY USED 2006 VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. *JS

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
BEGINNING ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO SLT BEGAN SPEWING GASOLINE EVERYTIME I FILLED MY CAR AT THE GAS STATION. IT CONTINUES TO DO THIS SINCE THAT TIME AND EVEN THOUGH DODGE HAS ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM, SINCE MY CAR'S VIN IS NOT LISTED AS ELIGIBLE FOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND REPAIR I AM OUT OF LUCK. I FILED AN APPEAL WITH DODGE AND IT SEEMS THE CRITERIA FOR WHETHER OR NOT THE REPAIR WILL BE COVERED IS BASED ON WHETHER I AM A GOOD DODGE CUSTOMER. QUESTIONS SUCH AS DID I USE THE DEALERSHIP FOR MAINTENANCE, DID I OWN OTHER DODGE CARS, ETC. I THINK THAT SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, THAT DODGE SHOULD STAND BEHIND ITS CARS AND MAKE THE REPAIR. THIS ATTITUDE GUARANTEES THAT I WILL NOT BE A DODGE CUSTOMER IN THE FUTURE. *JS
