Consumer Description

THE GAS TANK BEGAN BURPING UPON FILLING. ONCE THE AUTO CUTOFF CLICKS OFF, ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS LATER THE TANK BURPS A LARGE PUDDLE ONTO THE GROUND THAT IS WELL LARGER THAN MY FOOT. APPARENTLY THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT STARTS WITH A RECALL IN 2005. I FOUND THIS WHILE RESEARCHING HOW TO REPAIR THE ISSUE. THE ISSUES HAVE TRANSFERRED INTO 2007 DURANGOS AND NOW TO MY 2008. DID DODGE FAIL TO ACCURATELY ADDRESS THE 2005 RECALL? THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO HAVE REPEAT FAILURES IN A DESIGN. THIS IS ALSO AN ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN THAT I AM INCLINED TO REPORT TO THE EPA. MAYBE THEY WILL GET DODGE TO TAKE ACTION. I HAVE WRITTEN THIS BASED ON RESEARCH WITHOUT CONTACTING DODGE BECAUSE APPARENTLY THEY DID NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP COUNTLESS OTHER PEOPLE. MY DURANGO HAD 51,000 WHEN IT STARTED FAILING. *KB
