FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN REFILLING THE FUEL TANK THE NOZZLE ON THE HOSE FROM THE GASOLINE DISPENSER DOES NOT CLICK ON AND STOP THE FLOW OF FUEL ONCE THE TANK IS FULL RESULTING IN APPROXIMATELY 8 OUNCES OF GASOLINE BEING REGURGITATED BACK OUT OF THE TANK AND ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE ONTO THE PERSON STANDING THERE FUELING THE CAR AND THEN ONTO THE GROUND. IN MY OPINION THIS POSES A GRAVE SAFETY HAZARD IN THAT THIS OVERFLOW MAY IGNITE AND INJURE THE PERSON FILLING THE VEHICLE PLUS CAUSE A RATHER LARGE FIRE WHEN THE VEHICLE AND SURROUNDING ITEMS AT THE STATION ALSO GO UP IN FLAMES.THIS HAS HAPPENED AT SEVERAL DIFFERENT FILLING STATIONS AND I WAS ADVISED LAST FRIDAY (1/13/2012) BY AN ATTENDANT AT T SAM'S CLUB FILLING STATION THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR DURANGOS OF THE AGE OF MINE. I STOPPED BY AVONDALE DODGE (WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW) ON MY WAY HOME TO DISCUSS THIS PROBLEM AND THEY GAVE ME A 800 NUMBER TO CALL THAT I'VE BEEN GETTING A RUN AROUND ABOUT THE PROBLEM SO FAR. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS, AT END OF FILL UP GAS WILL SPEWL OUT ONTO CAR, GROUND, AND MYSELF!! TOOK TO DEALER WAS TOLD CHECK VALVE SEAL HAD DETERIORATED, WOULD NEED TO REPLACE FUEL TANK. REPAIR PLUS LABOR WOULD BE AT LEAST $800. CONTACTED DODGE CHRYSLER BY EMAIL, WAS CALLED THAT DAY. EXCELLENT PR BUT WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL AT THIS TIME FOR THIS PROBLEM,. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM BUT NOT ENOUGH TO DO A RECALL. TOLD IF I PAY THE FIRST $200 THEY WOULD COVER THE REST, IF A RECALL HAPPENS I WOULD BE REIMBURSED THIS COST. I DO NOT FEEL THAT ANYONE OWNING THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF THIS DEFECTIVE REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE ON CAR. THIS IS A FACTORY DEFECTIVE NOT CAUSED BY OWNERSHIP. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, DOES SOMETHING SERIOUS HAVE TO HAPPENED TO SOMEONE AND THEIR CAR BEFORE THIS IS TAKEN CARE OF? *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
GAS OVERFLOW SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN FILLING UP THE TANK, THE SAFETY VAVLE IN THE GAS TANK FAILS AND DOES NOT SHUT THE PUMP OFF. DUE TO THIS, GASOLINE SPURTS OUT OF THE TANK. APPROXIMATELY 5 CUPS OF GASOLINE SPURTS OUT. MOST RECENTLY, MY DAUGHTER FILLED UP OUR TANK AND THE GAS SPURTED OUT ON HER. THIS IS BOTH A SAFETY ISSUE AND AN ENVIROMENTAL ISSUE. *TR

AROUND AUGUST 10, 2011, AS I WAS GETTING FUEL IT SPRAYED FUEL EVERYWHERE AFTER THE NOZZLE HAD STOPPED. I HAVE EVEN TRIED TO SLOW THE RATE OF FUEL AND THAT DOES NOT MATTER. EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK, IT SPRAYS EVERYWHERE. I TRIED DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND STILL NO LUCK. THIS POSES A SAFETY HAZARD AS ALL OF THE FUEL SPILLED ON THE VEHICLE, THE GROUND, AND ON MY CLOTHES. *TR

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE OF FUEL OVERFLOW WITH 2ND GENERATION DODGE DURANGO THAT DODGE REFUSES TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL TO FIX. AT THE CONCLUSION OF REFUELING APPROXIMATELY 0.25 GAL WILL GURGLE TO FORCEFULLY EJECT ITSELF FROM THE FUEL FILLER NECK OF THE DURANGO. SPILLING FUEL EVERY FILL UP IS A PERSONAL SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION CONCERN WHICH NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

WENT TO FILL DURANGO UP TWO DAYS AFTER PURCHASED USED. THE PUMP SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY AND SPRAYED APPROX. ONE LITER OF GAS ON MY HAND, SLEEVE, RIGHT LEG, RIGHT SHOE, AND THE FENDER/BUMPER OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND THERE IS NO WARNING FROM DODGE THAT THIS MAY OCCUR. THIS WAS A RECALL ON 2005'S AND DODGE REPRESENTATIVES TOLD ME WHEN I ASKED ABOUT AN ASSIST, "IF IT WAS A RECALL BEFORE AND ISN'T NOW, THE ISSUES WOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED ON THE ASSEMBLY LINE". THIS STATEMENT, FROM MY CASE MANAGER, IS CLEARLY NOT TRUE. THERE ARE SEVERAL VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE.COM OF THIS HAPPENING TO VEHICLES WITH VIN NUMBERS THAT ARE POST RECALL. *TR

WAS FILLING UP 06 DODGE DURANGO AND FUEL WILL FLOW OUT VIOLENTLY AFTER THE FUEL NOZZLE SHUT OFF WAS ACTIVATED. THERE WAS ABOUT QUART OR MORE FUEL SPLASHED OUT OF THE FUEL NOZZLE OF THE CAR. THERE IS EVEN A RUST SPOT ON THE DRIVER SIDE REAR QUARTER PANEL UNDER THE FUEL NOZZLE ON THE CAR WHERE FUEL HAS EATING AT THE METAL. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND CAN BE DEADLY. THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. *TR

UPON TURNING INTO PARKING LOT OF LOCAL STORE, CAR SHUT DOWN AND SYSTEM LOCKED UP. NO POWER STEERING AND NO ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WAS ABLE TO STEER CAR TO PARKING SPACE, STOP AND RESTART VEHICLE. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE IN 2 WEEKS. SAME SCENARIO, GOING SLOW IN PARKING LOT AND VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN. ANOTHER PROBLEM HAS COME UP NOW WHEN AFTER I START THE VEHICLE IN THE MORNING, IT SURGES FROM 1000 RPM TO 2000 BACK AND FORTH FOR ABOUT 10-15 SECONDS. MY QUESTIONS FOR THE DURANGO MAKERS IS WHEN WILL THEIR BE A TOTAL RECALL ON THESE SUV'S? *TR

WHEN I FILL MY TRUCK WITH GAS IT SPEWS OUT. I HAVE GOTTEN TO WHERE I NEVER COMPLETELY FILL MY TRUCK. WHEN IS SOMEONE GOING TO INVESTIGATE THIS AND ISSUE A RECALL? I HAVE A FEELING THAT THE ONLY WAY WE DODGE OWNERS GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED IS IF SOMEONE IS HURT WHILE TRYING TO FILL THEIR TRUCK. ALL IT WOULD TAKE IS ONE SPARK WHEN THE GAS SPILLS OUT. PLEASE, FORCE DODGE TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE WE HEAR ON THE NEWS THAT SOMEONE IS INJURED. *TR
