FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW AND NOTICED WITHIN THE FIRST 1000 MILES WHEN FILLING UP AND USING THE AUTO SHUT OFF, GAS WOULD SPILL OUT OF THE TANK ON THE SIDE OF THE CAR. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE PUMP ITSELF AND TRIED OTHERS. I WAS TOLD BY LOCAL DODGE DEALER THERE WASN'T A PROBLEM AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS WOULD EVER COME ON INDICATING AN ISSUE. MY FUEL CAP HAS BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES BUT I CAN'T USE AUTO SHUTOFF ANY MORE WITH THIS VEHICLE. I'VE GOTTEN USE TO NOT FILLING UP BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD BY OTHERS THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS. MY CAR GOES IN THE SHOP TUES 1/9/12 UNDER WARRANTY AND WONDERING WHAT THEY WILL SAY. *TR

EVERYTIME I TRY TO FILL THE GAS TANK, IT SPEWS GAS BACK OUT AT ME. THE AUTOMATIC PUMP SHUTOFF WILL TRIP FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY A BUNCH OF GAS SQUIRTING BACK OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS CANNOT BE SAFE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FUELING MY DURANGO, THE GAS PUMP WILL KICK OFF BUT A SHORT TIME LATER GAS WILL SPILL/SPRAY OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. I HAVE TRIED VARIOUS GAS PUMPS AND PUMP RATES ALL RESULTING IN THE SAME ACTIONS, USUALLY A GAS SOAKED SLEEVE, GAS RUNNING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, AND A PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. IT IS TO THE POINT MY WIFE IS SCARED TO FUEL OUR DURANGO. I HAVE CALLED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SEEM TO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SUCH PROBLEMS. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE NOTE OF THIS AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BEFORE IT RESULTS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY DURANGO IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT I SEE COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE PLACE FOR. I HAVE THE FUEL SPEWING BACK OUT OF THE TANK WHEN I AM PUMPING GAS...THE NOZZLE WILL CLICK OFF, THEN A GEYSER SHOOTS OUT AND IT'S A LOT! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RECALL/FIX THIS PROBLEM. HOW LONG OR HOW MANY VEHICLES IS IT GOING TO TAKE BEFORE ANY ACTION WILL TAKE PLACE. ARE YA'LL WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE...A FIRE...ETC?? THIS IS A HAZARD, NOT ONLY FOR THE PERSON WHO IS FILLING UP THE TANK, BUT FOR THE GAS STATION AS WELL. WHEN THIS HAPPENED TO ME, MY HAND BURNED FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE DAY, AND THIS WAS AFTER I WASHED IT SEVERAL TIMES....NOT TO MENTION MY SCRUBS WERE RUINED. SOMETHING SERIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURTS! *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THIS TRUCK WAS PURCHASED USED IN NOVEMBER 2011 WITH 45000 MILES. I HAVE FILLED THE TANK 3 TIMES AND EVERY TIME THE PUMP AUTO SHUT-OFF CLICKS AND A FEW CUPS OF FUEL OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE 2005 MODEL YEAR WAS RECALLED WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM, BUT 2007 HAD NOT YET BEEN RECALLED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY 2007 DODGE DURANGO 4X4 LIMITED OVERFLOWS GASOLINE AT THE FUEL FILLER NECK EACH TIME I ALLOW THE AUTO-SHUTOFF TO FILL THE TANK. THIS PROBLEM STARTED AT APPROXIMATELY 55,000 MILES. THE FUEL SHUTOFF ALWAYS WORKS, BUT A SECOND OR SO LATER, A LARGE SPRAY OF PRESSURIZED FUEL SQUIRTS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK FROM AROUND THE FUEL NOZZLE. AGAIN, THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED, NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION AND NO MATTER WHAT TEMPERATURE OR PRIOR FUEL LEVEL. IT HAS HAPPENED CONTINUALLY FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS. I CAN PREVENT THE OVERSPRAY BY SHUTTING OFF THE FUEL BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL AND ALLOWING THE NOZZLE TO STAND FOR 20 SECONDS BEFORE REMOVING IT. THE DODGE DEALERSHIPS I HAVE TALKED TO DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS HAPPENING. THIS IS A FIRE-SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK EXTRA GASOLINE IS SPIT OUT OF THE TANK WHICH IS A FIRE ISSUE FOR THE GAS STATION. IF WE ARE FILLING THE GAS TANK, WHEN THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOPS GAS POURS BACK OUT OF THE TANK. ALSO THE GAS CAP LIGHT CAME ON RECENTLY & THE GAS CAP WAS REPLACED BUT LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I BELIEVE THIS WOULD BE THE SAME RECALL AS THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO FUEL SYSTEM GASOLINE STORAGE TANK ASSEMBLY. WE ARE TAKING THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER IN LITTLE FALLS, NJ ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 26, 2011 FOR THE REPAIRS TO BE MADE. IF YOU SEARCH THE INTERNET YOU WILL FIND OTHER DODGE DURANGOS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THERE IS A YOUTUBE VIDEO OF A 2007 DODGE DURANGO DEMONSTRATING WHAT HAPPENS AT THE END OF FILLING THE TANK. HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=FS5U63CN-II. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP
UPON NORMAL FUELING OF THE VEHICLE, GAS WILL SIGNIFICANTLY EXPEL FROM FUEL INLET WHEN THE GAS STATION FUEL PUMP SHUTS OFF. THIS CAUSES DANGEROUS FUEL TO BE IN CONTACT WITH PEOPLE, VEHICLE, OBJECTS AND GROUND AT FUEL STATION. THIS IS A CONDITION THAT WAS NOT CAUSED BY THE OWNER OR FROM NORMAL OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. THIS OBVIOUS FUELING DEFECT IS CAUSE FOR GENERAL PUBLIC CONCERN FOR MANY REASONS; EXCESSIVE SKIN CONTACT WITH CHEMICALS, THREAT OF MAJOR FIRE OR EXPLOSION THAT COULD INJURE, HARM OR KILL INDIVIDUALS AND IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD TO THE COMMUNITY. *KB

I WILL BE DRIVING AND MY 4WD LOCK WILL ENGAGE WITHOUT ME TURNING IT ON CAUSING MY TIRES TO STICK TO THE ROAD. IT PREVENTS ME FROM TURNING MY STEERING WHEEL WITHOUT THE CAR ACTING LIKE IT IS GOING TIP OVER. IT SEEMS LIKE THE SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS EXPERIENCED WITH THE 2006 DODGE DURANGOS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK AND RELYING ON THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF, GAS WILL SPEW OUT COVERING THE PERSON STANDING THERE, THE GROUND, AND THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. EVEN WHEN APPROXIMATING THE TANK BEING FULL AND TRYING TO CONTROL THE FLOW BY HAND, GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOW JUST NOT WITH THE SAME FORCE. BESIDES THE ANNOYANCE OF BEING COVERED IN AND SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE, THIS DEFECT POSES MAJOR SAFETY RISKS. MAN UP DODGE AND HELP US GET THIS FIXED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
TURN SIGNALS BEGAN MALFUNCTIONING, AND STILL ARE. WHEN APPLYING THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL, NOTHING COMES ON. WHEN APPLYING THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL, THE LEFT COMES ON. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON SPORADICALLY, AND WILL ONLY GO TO A MAXIMUM SPEED OF ABOUT 2 WIPES PER MINUTE WHEN THEY WORK AT ALL. BRIGHT LIGHTS WILL NOT COME ON AT ALL, AND WHEN I DEPRESS THE LEVER TO TURN THEM ON, THE WIPER FLUID SQUIRTS ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THE DOOR LOCKS ALSO INTERMITTENTLY LOCK AND UNLOCK TEN OR FIFTEEN TIMES IN A ROW BY THEMSELVES AT RANDOM TIMES, BOTH IN IDLE AND WHILE IN DRIVE AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I JUST PURCHASED A USED DODGE DURANGO WITH 28,900 MILES ON IT. I DISCOVERED BEGINNING THE DAY I BOUGHT IT THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT GASOLINE INTO THE DURANGO WITHOUT IT DUMPING OUT APPROXIMATELY A LARGE AMOUNT AFTER THE HOSE SHUTS OFF. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER IF IT IS AN ATTEMPT TO FILL THE TANK OR JUST TO ADD ANY AMOUNT OF GASOLINE TO THE VEHICLE. IT ALWAYS DOES IT ABOUT 1 OR 2 SECONDS AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS OFF. THE GASOLINE GOES DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THERE IS ALWAYS A LARGE PUDDLE ON THE GROUND UNDER THE VEHICLE. I AM AFRAID THAT SOMEDAY IT WILL CATCH ON FIRE DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FUEL LOSS. THE IS ALSO ALWAYS A GASOLINE SMELL INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AFTER FILLING THE TANK. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND ALSO REPORTED TO THE NTSB REGARDING THIS ISSUE. WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL? *TR
