NHTSA Complaint #10375248 — 2008 DODGE DURANGO

2008 DODGE DURANGO 4X4 SLT W/5.7 ENGINE... GAS BLOWBACK ISSUE WHILE FILLING THE FUEL TANK.. APPARENTLY THIS PROBLEM IS CHECK-VALVE RELATED AND CAN ONLY BE REPAIRED BY CHANGING THE TANK. I ALSO OWN A 2005 DURANGO SLT 5.7 AND IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER FINALLY HONORED THE RECALL AND FIXED THE PROBLEM. I AM SHOCKED TO SEE THE 2008 MODEL STILL HAS THIS SAME DANGEROUS ISSUE. WHILE DODGE AND THE WORLD KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, THEY ARE IGNORING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH RECENT MODELS AND HAVE NOT ISSUED RECALLS. THE PROOF AND HISTORY IS THERE.. DO WE NEED FAMILIES BURNED TO DEATH, FLASH FIRES AT GAS STATIONS, EYE DAMAGE FROM GUSHING GAS, BEFORE A RECALL IS DEEMED WORTHY? WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR? IT IS SIMPLY A CONTINUATION OF A RECALL THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN ESTABLISHED WITH EARLIER MODEL YEARS AND I AM HERE TO TELL YOU THAT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. *LN
