2005 DODGE DURANGO SPILLS FUEL WHEN FINISHING FILLING THE TANK. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, BUT DODGE WILL ONLY INCLUDE CERTAIN VINS IN THE RECALL, EVEN THOUGH THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL VEHICLE IS AFFECTED WITH DIFFERENT VINS. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT CAN RESULT IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I OWN A 2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT 5.7 LITER V8. I HAVE APPROXIMATELY 43,100 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. AS OF RIGHT NOW, EVERYTME I FILL UP MY CAR, THE PUMP WILL CLICK OFF AND THEN GAS WILL START SPRAYING OUT OF THE GAS TANK. IT HAS RECENTLY HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN A ROW WITHOUT FAIL. IT APPEARS IT'S SEVERAL CUPS OF GAS THAT SPRAYS OUT. I HAVE TO MAKE SURE I AM CLEAR OF THE GAS TANK PIPE OR I WILL BE COVERED IN GAS. I CONTACTED DODGE WITH THE ISSUE AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE ANY RECALLS. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON MY OWN AND LEARNED THAT THERE WERE TWO RECALLS FOR THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS ADVISED TO FILE A COMPLAINT TO LET SOMEONE KNOW THERE ARE STILL MORE OF THESE DANGEROUS ISSUES HAPPENING. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
AT THE COMPLETION OF FUELING MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO, THE FUEL PUMP WILL SHUT OFF, THEN 1-2 SECONDS LATER APPROXIMATELY 1 CUP OF FUEL WILL SPIT BACK OUT OF THE FUEL TANK. IT HAS OCCURRED 4 TIME OVER THE PAST 2 MONTHS (EACH TIME I FILL UP). WHILE RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, I CAME ACROSS NHTSA ACTION NUMBER RQ08005, AND CONTACTED CHRYSLER (CASE #20241304) WHO TOLD ME TO BRING THE VEHICLE INTO DELRAY MOTORS TO EVALUATE. THEY REPLACED THE FILLER PIPE, CHARGED ME $403.21, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. AFTER RETURNING THE CAR TO DELRAY MOTORS, THEY HAVE MADE VARIOUS ACCUSATION REGARD ME NOT REPRESENT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, AND NOW THEY ARE SAYING THEY WILL NOT HONOR THE RECALL BECAUSE IT WAS COMPLETED IN AUGUST OF 2005 (WHICH WAS NEVER DONE). HOW DO I GET DODGE/CHRYSLER TO HONOR THIS RECALL? *TR

MY DURANGO WILL STALL WITHOUT WARNING. IT NORMALLY DOES THIS AT LOW SPEEDS SUCH AS COMING UP ON A STOP SIGN OR DOING A 3 POINT TURN. WHEN IT STALLS YOU LOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
2005 DODGE DURANGO STALLS SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK AT LOW SPEEDS, WHILE BRAKING, TURNING, PARKING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON CURVES, SENDING US INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC SINCE POWER STEERING GOES OUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN A SCHOOL PARKING LOT SEVERAL TIMES, CREATING A HAZARD. NO PARTICULAR DATE, AS MANY INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED. TAKEN IT IN TO DODGE TWICE FOR SERVICE AND THEY TELL US THAT NOTHING IS WRONG. OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE WRONG AS THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED BEFORE. WE WANT THIS FIXED. WE LIKE THE TRUCK OTHERWISE. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF WE FELT COMPLETELY SAFE IN IT, BUT THIS IS HARD TO DO WHEN IT STALLS WITH NO WARNING. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A USED 2005 DURANGO. IT SPITS FUEL OUT THE FILLER NECK HORRIBLY WHEN TRYING TO FILL IT UP. EVEN ON SLOWEST SETTING ON THE PUMP HANDLE IT LAUNCHES FUEL ONTO THE TRUCK, PUMP HANDLE, AND ENOUGH TO "RUN" IF GROUND IS SLANTED. I CONTACTED DODGE WHO SAYS BASICALLY ITS MY BABY. I HAVE TO BUY A TANK TO FIX IT. BUT SIMILAR VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUE ARE COVERED UNDER A RECALL. WHEN I QUESTIONED IT TO THE DODGE REPRESENTATIVE HE INSISTED IT WAS A DIFFERENT ISSUE. HOW CAN THIS BE POSSIBLE FOR 2 VEHICLES TO HAVE THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPEN, ONLY TO FIND SOME ARE COVERED AND SOME ARE NOT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS AND EXTREMELY INCONVENIENT SITUATION, NOT TO MENTION THE EMBARRASSMENT. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO FAILURE. AT BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER 2010 BEGAN TO FILL GAS TANK, WHEN TANK FULL, GAS NOZZLE CLICKED OFF AND A COUPLE OF SECONDS LATER GASOLINE SPRAYED OUT ALL OVER MY PANTS AND ALL OVER THE GROUND. SINCE THAT TIME, EVERYTIME TANK IS FILLED, THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED. MY CONCERN IS IF THERE IS AN IGNITION SOURCE WITH ALL THE GAS THAT LEAKS OUT, A FIRE COULD RESULT, OR IF THE PUMP HAPPENS TO HAVE A FLANGE NEAR END, IT HAS SPRAYED OUT FROM SIDES, AND IF CHILD HAPPENS TO BE WALKING BY, IT COULD SPRAY A CHILD IN THE EYES. I DO HAVE A VIDEO OF ONE OF THE EPISODES OF GAS COMING OUT FROM AROUND PUMP NOZZLE AFTER PUMP CLICKS OFF. I DID CALL CHRYSLER AS IT APPEARS THERE IS A SIMILAR RECALL, HOWEVER THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT MY AUTOMOBILE IS NOT PART OF THAT RECALL. THEY HAD ME TAKE IT TO A DODGE DEALER TO GET IT FIXED AND SAID THEY WOULD COMPENSATE ME FOR SOME OF THE COST TO GET IT FIXED, HOWEVER WOULDN'T TELL ME WHAT AMOUNT THEY WOULD PAY UNTIL AFTER TAKING IT IN. PER SERVICE DEPT REPORT "THE FUEL TANK FLAPPER IS STICKING". THE FUEL TANK AND FILLER NECK ASSEMBLY WERE FIXED TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. OLD PART IS NOT AVAILABLE. CHRYSLER SAID THAT THEY WOULD PAY FOR ALL BUT $250.00 FOR WHICH I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR. *TR

WHEN REFUELING GAS SPILLS FROM THE FILLER TUBE WHEN THE NOZZLE CLICKS OFF. THIS HAS OCCURRED 5 OR 6 TIMES IN A ROW SINCE NOVEMBER 15, 2010. IT HAS BEEN A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM SINCE IT BEGAN. THIS OCCURS AT FILL UP. IT HAPPENS AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS, SO IT IS NOT A GAS PUMP FAULT. THIS IS THE SAME CONDITION REPORTED IN CAMPAIGN 05V034000 AND 09V003000. MY VEHICLE VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, BUT IT HAS THE SAME DEFECT SYMPTOMS AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL. CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED. CHRYSLER WILL NOT INCLUDE IT IN THE RECALL, BUT SAID THEY MAY HELP WITH THE REPAIR PENDING A DEALERS REPORT. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE A FUEL SPIT BACK PROBLEM W/ MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO THAT WAS MANUFACTURED 05/05. IT APPEARS TO BE THE SAME ISSUE THAT IS LISTED AS A RECALL ON THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL YEAR VEHICLE THAT WAS MANUFACTURED PRIOR TO MINE. WHEN FILLING THE TANK, GAS WILL BLOW BACK OUT OF THE FILLER NECK WITH SUBSTANTIAL FORCE. GASOLINE IS SPEED OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND GROUND. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS COVERED IN GASOLINE. I CALLED CHRYSLER TO ASK ABOUT THE ISSUE AFTER READING THE RECALL FOR THE EARLIER MODEL YEAR VEHICLES. THE REPRESENTATIVE THAT I SPOKE TO ADVISED THAT IT WAS VERY POSSIBLE THAT MY VEHICLE, BEING BUILT LATE IN THE MODEL YEAR, MAY HAVE HAD THE FAULTY VALVE INSTALLED DURING ASSEMBLY OF THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE SEVERAL OTHER VEHICLES MAY HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND THE OWNER'S LIKE MYSELF, CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR IT. I FEEL THIS MATTER NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO FURTHER FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED AFTER THE SPECIFIED DATES IN 09V003000. OTHER THAN SKIN DISCOMFORT, I WAS NOT INJURED. THIS INCIDENT OCCURS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IF FILLED! *TR

THE FUEL TANK SPEWS GAS AT ME WHEN I FILL IT UP, AND SOMETIMES ONLY WHEN I PARTIALLY FILL IT GAS COMES OUT AS WELL. DODGE HAS A RECALL ISSUED ON SOME 2005 DODGE DURANGO VINS, BUT MINE IS NOT IN THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT HAS THE PROBLEM. I NEED HELP GETTING IT FIXED AS DODGE CURRENTLY DOES NOT FEEL IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. IT FIRST OCCURRED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO AND CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM. *TR

THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP).

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FUEL (APPROXIMATELY 1/4-1/2 GALLON EACH EVENT) SPRAYS OUT OF FUEL TANK FILLER NECK DURING REFUELING WHEN TANK REACHES FULL POINT. EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS REFERENCED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 09V003000. HOWEVER, DODGE REPORTS MY VIN IS NOT ONE OF THE AFFECTED MODELS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. INITIALLY THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE BEEN A ONE-TIME FLUKE, BUT HAS SINCE CONTINUED TO EJECT FUEL FROM THE TANK EVERY TIME I REFUEL THE TANK UPON REACHING THE FULL POINT DURING REFUEL. HAD NO INDICATIONS OF ANY PROBLEMS PRIOR TO FIRST EVENT; RECEIVED NO MALFUNCTION LIGHTS. AFTER FIRST EVENT, NOTICED LOUD VENTING SOUND COMING FROM TANK APPROXIMATELY 5-10 MINUTES LATER WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD - INITIALLY THOUGHT I HAD AIR QUICKLY ESCAPING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR TIRE, BUT REALIZED IT WAS COMING FROM THE TANK. HAS NOT DONE THIS SINCE. TO DATE, I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY MALFUNCTION LIGHTS OR INDICATIONS, OTHER THAN THE CONSISTENT FUEL SPILL EVERY TIME I FILL UP THAT WILL SOON BEGIN TO EAT INTO THE PAINT IF NOT REMEDIED SOON. I DEPEND ON THIS VEHICLE TO MAKE LONG-DISTANCE TRIPS FREQUENTLY, TRAVELLING THROUGH LOCATIONS WITH NO SERVICES, SO NOT COMPLETELY FILLING THE FUEL TANK IS NOT A SAFE OR VIABLE LONG-TERM OPTION. VEHICLE NOW HAS 90,000 MILES.
