WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK A LARGE AMOUNT OF GASOLINE SPITS OUT AFTER THE FUEL NOZZLE CLICKS OFF. I FIRST THOUGHT IS WAS A DEFECT WITH THE FUEL NOZZLE. BUT IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN EACH TIME I FILL UP. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE OR EXPLOSION. THERE ARE SEVERAL VIDEOS ON YTUBE WHICH CLEARLY SHOW THIS PROBLEM. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AT THE SERVICE STATION WITH THE ENGINE AND IGNITION IS OFF. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THE CHRYSLER HAS A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM BUT VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. THE RECALL SHOULD INCLUDE ALL VEHICLES THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. PLEAS ADVISE ON WHAT CAN BE DONE TO GET CHRYSLER TO RECTIFY THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM AT THEIR EXPENSE. THANK YOU. THIS PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED IN NOVEMBER 2016 AND HAS CONTINUED EACH TIME I FILL UP....

2005 DODGE DURANGO. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO THE FUEL TANK INLET VALVE RECALL NOTICE ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED HE HAS BEEN TRYING FOR MORE THAN 18 MONTHS TO GET CHRYSLER TO HONOR THE RECALL. TO DATE, WITH NO SUCCESS. RIGHT AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, THE CONSUMER BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH GAS SPILLING OUT OF THE TANK AS IT WAS BEING FILLED. THE PROBLEM SUBSEQUENTLY RETURNED AND THE DEALER GAVE HIM COSMETIC EXPLANATIONS. AFTER THE VEHICLE, NEARLY CAUGHT ON FIRE, IT PROMPTED THE CONSUMER TO INVESTIGATE AND HE SOON DISCOVERED A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM HE EXPERIENCED. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO REFUEL THE VEHICLE, FUEL EJECTED OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V817000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000. UPDATED 6/8/15*CN

EVERY TIME I WENT TO FILL THE GAS TANK IT HAD A DELAY OVERFLOW . STARTED OUT WITH ABOUT A CUP OF GASOLINE AND THEN INCREASED TO ABOUT 3/4 OF A PINT AND THIS IS EVEN WHEN FILLING VERY SLOWLY. I CHECKED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON DURANGO'S IN 2005 FOR GAS TANKS OVERFLOWING BECAUSE OF A DEFECTIVE CHECK VALVE. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALER HE SAID THAT RECALL DID NOT APPLY TO MY VIN NUMBER?. I DO NOT SEE HOW THAT CAN BE. I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS OVER 40 YEARS AND NEVER HAD ONE OVERFILL THE FUEL TANK AND SPLASH ALL OVER YOU. *TR

I CAN NOT FILL UP MY VEHICLE ALL THE WAY BECAUSE FUEL SPEWS OUT BEFORE THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY WILL NOT LOOK AT IT AS A DEFECT OR RECALL ANYMORE. I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. I DO NOT THINK THAT THIS RIGHT BECAUSE THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SECURITY HAZARD. THIS ISSUE IS CLEARLY A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES OR EVEN DEATH IF AN IGNITION SOURCE HAPPENED TO BLOW NEARBY. I THINK THE DEALER SHOULD FIX IT FREE OF CHARGE. I KNOW THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THIS BEFORE SO THE DEALER SHOULD FIX ANY ISSUE THAT COMES UP CONCERNING ALL FACTORY DEFECTS AND/OR RECALLS REGARDLESS OF HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN. *TR

THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF AFTER YOU FILL IT UP WITH FUEL. *TR

HAVING 3 MAJOR ISSUES THAT CAN BE LIFE THREATENING..1) DRIVING AT ANY SPEED SOMETIMES VEHICLE WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF LEAVING ME ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60MPH NO POWER STEERING 2) FILLING GAS TANK UP NO MATTER IF I GO SLOW WILL ALWAYS SPIT LOTS OF GAS BACK OUT OF THE NECK 3) 4X4 IS ENGAGING BY ITSELF. I CAN PARK IT TURN MOTOR OFF AND YOU CAN HEAR IT GOING INTO 4X4 WITHOUT ME BEING IN THE VEHICLE OR TOUCHING THE 4X4 KNOB. THIS HAS CAUSE ME ISSUE STEERING WHEN IT DECIDES TO GO INTO 4X4 MODE BY ITSELF. I NEED TO KNOW IF THEIR IS CURRENT COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE ABOVE ISSUES AND HOW CAN I GET THEM FIX WITHOUT ME PAYING. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO 4.7L AND WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK THE GAS SPLASHES OUT WHEN THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. EVEN WHEN PUMPING SLOWLY IT STILL COMES OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND ONTO THE GROUND. IF PUMPING FASTER IT TENDS TO SHOOT UP AND OUT. THIS IS A HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED ASAP.THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR THIS PROBLEM ON THE 2005 DURANGO BUT MINE IS NOT ONE OF THE VIN NUMBERS THAT QUALIFIES. THE DEALER SAYS THE ENTIRE GAS TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE CHECK VALVE GETTING STUCK AND NOT CLOSING PROPERLY. I HAVE READ SEVERAL FORUM SITES WHERE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND CHRYSLER IS NOT REPLACING THOSE PARTS. *TR

WHEN I'M DRIVING IN TRAFFIC (APPROX 30-45 MPH) OR STOPPED AT A LIGHT, MY VEHICLE RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF. THERE'S NO INDICATION THIS WILL HAPPEN. NO LIGHTS FLASH OR ANYTHING. THE TRUCK SIMPLY STOPS. I TAKE IT TO MECHANICS AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM--BUT THEY RECOGNIZE THERE'S A PROBLEM. I'M FEARFUL FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE AND/OR ANYONE WE ENCOUNTER WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IT'S NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE OUT OF TRAFFIC, AND THE STEERING LOCKS UP AS WELL. I'VE HAD THE COOLING SYSTEM FLUSHED, TRANSMISSION REPLACED TO NO AVAIL. IS THERE A RECALL ON THIS THING?! THERE SURE SHOULD BE! I'M SURE SOMEONE HAS DIED BY NOW DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION. *TR

IT SPITS GAS BACK AT YOU WHEN YOU FILL UP I JUST READ ABOUT THE RECALL I'VE ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR 2 YEAR. *JS

FUEL OVERFLOWS WHEN YOU FILL THE TANK UP. GAS KICKS BACK SMELL GAS FUMES WHILE PARKED SOME TIMES. DEALER SAYS ITS NOT COVERED. BUT THERE IS A RECALL. *TR

2 PROBLEMS: 1) EVEN THOUGH OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP IS INSISTENT THAT WE DON'T HAVE A RECALL, I CAN SEE A RECALL ON YOUR PAGE ABOUT WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTORS. OUR WIPERS COME ON EVERY TIME WE START THE VEHICLE, AND THEY WORK SPORADICALLY. SOMETIMES WHILE THEY'RE ON, THEY WON'T COME ON AT ALL, AS MENTIONED IN THE RECALL INFORMATION. WHY ISN'T MINE COVERED? 2) BIGGEST PROBLEM: SEVERAL TIMES (UPWARDS OF TEN TIMES) I HAVE BEEN GOING SLOW, USUALLY MAKING A TURN, AND MY ENGINE STALLS. I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY OFF AND THEN RESTART, AND I'M OKAY AGAIN. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC IN THE LAST PART OF JULY/FIRST PART OF AUGUST LAST YEAR, AND HE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP. IT DIDN'T OCCUR AGAIN UNTIL DECEMBER, WHILE WE WERE ON VACATION- WE WERE SLOWLY GOING UP A HILL AND IT STALLED. HAD TO TURN THE KEY OFF AND THEN RE-START...

WHEN REFUELING VEHICLE, FUEL GUSHES OUT OF FUEL FILLER TUBE VIOLENTLY. THIS OCCURS NO MATTER WHAT SPEED FUEL IS PUMPED INTO TANK. I SEE THAT 2 RECALLS AFFECT THIS CONDITION IN THIS MODEL YEAR VEHICLE BUT THE RECALLS SEEM TO AFFECT ONLY A PORTION OF VEHICLES FOR THIS MODEL YEAR. MY VEHICLE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED IN APRIL 2005. THIS APPEARS TO PLACE IT BETWEEN THE 2 GROUPS OF VEHICLES COVERED BY THE RECALL. I WENT TO A CHRYSLER DEALER ON 3-5-14 AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. WHY AREN'T ALL VEHICLES AFFECTED WITH THIS PROBLEM COVERED. SEEMS TO BE VERY UNSAFE TO HAVE A LARGE QUANTITY OF GASOLINE EJECTED FROM THE FILLER EACH TIME IT IS FUELED. THE INCIDENT DATE I INDICATED ABOVE IS THE DATE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF PROBLEMS THE PREVIOUS OWNER ENCOUNTERED, IT WAS...

SPITS BACK FUEL AFTER REFUELING. POSSIBILITY OF FIRE HAZARD. *TR

I AM HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL TANK WHEN I AM FILLING UP THE TRUCK, WHEN FUELING, THE PUMP HANDLE WILL CLICK OFF AND THEN FUEL WILL SHOOT OUT OF THE FUEL TANK ALL OVER THE PLACE. I HAVE NEVER SEEN OR EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE EVER BEFORE AND IT IS QUITE ALARMING WHEN YOU GAS UP AND END UP COVERED IN GASOLINE NOT TO MENTION THE FACT I AM SPILLING GASOLINE ALL OVER AT THE PUMP, I FEEL THIS IS A LIABILITY BECAUSE OF FUEL SPILLS AND THE FACT IT COULD POTENTIALLY START A FIRE. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL RECALLS ON THIS ISSUE AND ALSO SEVERAL REVIEWS AS TO CHRYSLER/DODGE NOT HELPING TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM, THIS IS WHY I WAS TOLD TO START HERE WITH A FORMAL COMPLAINT. *TR

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK UP, THE GAS POURS OUT AND GOES EVERYWHERE THE CAR, GROUND, AND ME. *TR

WHEN FUELING UP MY VEHICLE AT THE END OF THE PUMPING PROCEDURE, GAS SHOOTS OUT OF TANK AND DEPENDING ON PRESSURE IT CAN REACH MY FOREHEAD. *TR

DURING FILL-UPS WITH GAS, FUEL SPILLS OUT. THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE RECALLS ON THE ISSUE, BUT THE DEALER SAYS OUR VIN IS NOT COVERED EVEN THOUGH IT FALLS WITHIN THE DATES OF MANUFACTURE THAT THE RECALL STATES. *TR

WHENEVER I FILL UP MY GAS TANK GAS POURS OUT. I TRY TO LISTEN REAL CLOSE SO IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AND THEN SOMETIMES EVEN AS I AM TAKING THE PUMP OUT A BUNCH OF GAS WILL COME BACK OUT OF IT. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A VERY LONG TIME. I EVEN HAD A GAS ATTENDANT TRY TO TELL ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE CLEAN UP. I SEEN WERE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS AND I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. EVIDENTLY THERE ARE OTHER 05 DODGE DURANGOS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE SEEN LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE ONLINE AS WELL AS 2 OPEN AND CLOSED INVESTIGATIONS ON THIS WEBSITE! WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO IT WILL SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN, STEERING IS IMPOSSIBLE AT THIS POINT. IT USE TO HAPPEN A LOT TO ME. NORMALLY IT WOULD ALWAYS HAPPEN PULLING IN OR BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. BUT I LIVE IN RURAL WV AND WE HAVE MOUNTAINS AND CURVY ROADS. ONCE I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30-35 MPH AND I WAS ON A CURVY ROAD AND IT STALLED OUT ON ME AND I ABOUT WENT OVER THE MOUNTAIN AS I COULD NOT STEER! WE HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED OVER AND THERE WAS NO WARNING OUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. ULTIMATELY HAVE THE MECHANIC PLAYED THE GUESSING GAME, HE REPLACED THE EGR VALVE AND THAT HAD FIXED THE PROBLEM. JUST RECENTLY IT IS BEGINNING TO HAPPEN AGAIN....

WHEN FILLING THE TANK WITH GASOLINE, THE PUMP HANDLE WILL SHUT DOWN BUT GAS SPEWS FROM THE FILLER OPENING ON THE VEHICLE. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM ISSUED IN 2009; HOWEVER, MY PARTICULAR VIN IS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL EVEN THOUGH I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. PERHAPS A FIRE CAUSING INJURIES IS NECESSARY TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM COVERED BY CHRYSLER. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL IT SPRAYS GASOLINE OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS WHOEVER IS FUELING IT. SEVERAL LIKE MODEL DURANGOS FROM THIS YEAR AND CLOSE TO THE SAME YEAR HAVE HAD RECALLS TO FIX THIS ISSUE. IM NOT AT ALL SURE WHY MY VIN DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL BUT IT NEEDS TO BECAUSE THE PROBLEM IS OBVIOUS AND WAS DEFINITELY A MANUFACTURER ERROR. PLEASE CONSIDER THIS REQUEST AND TAKE CARE OF THE ISSUE. *TR

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, THE TRANSFER CASE WENT INTO NEUTRAL, ON IT'S OWN, WHILE DRIVING ON A DIVIDED HIGHWAY, WITH NO SHOULDER. IT KIND OF CREATED A TRAFFIC JAM. LONG STORY SHORT. A FRIEND TOWED ME HOME. I RESET THE TRANSFER CASE PER THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL, AND IT WENT BACK INTO GEAR. STILL DO NOT KNOW WHY IT WENT INTO NEUTRAL IN THE FIRST PLACE. NOW, WHEN YOU OPEN THE DOORS, THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR OPERATES LIKE CRAZY, FOR UP TO 30 SECONDS, AND SOME TIMES LONGER. I GOT ON LINE AND HAVE FOUND OUT THAT IS A PROBLEM EXPERIENCED BY MANY DURANGO AWD OWNERS. I BOUGHT IT USED AND THE PREVIOUS OWNERS CLAIMED THAT IT NEVER DID IT BEFORE. ALSO, WHEN FILLING THE TANK UP, THE FILLER NECK WILL "PURGE" FUEL OUT ONTO THE GROUND AND YOUR FEET. THIS IS LISTED AS A DEALER RECALL, AND MINE WAS...

UPON FILLING UP AT THE GAS STATION, WHEN THE PUMP SHUT OFF, THERE WAS AN OVERFLOW FROM THE GAS TANK. ABOUT THE SAME TIME, I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRES AND WAS TOLD THE CAR NEEDED TO HAVE THE BALL JOINTS REPLACED AND THERE WAS A RECALL OUT FOR THE JOB. HOWEVER, I WAS TOLD MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT QUALIFY. UPDATED 05/08/14

WE WERE FILLING THE FUEL TANK AT A GAS STATION, AFTER THE TANK WAS FILLED IT SPRAYED FUEL ON MY WIFE. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND THIS RECALL. I WILL ALSO CONTACT DODGE ,BUT I ALSO HAVE READ A FEW INSTANCES WHERE THEY ARE RESISTANT TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE SO I DECIDED TO ALSO REPORT IT HERE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE FUELING, THE CONTACT NOTICED FUEL SPILL BACK OUT OF THE VEHICLE FROM THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THERE WERE TWO RECALLS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBERS 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP) AND 09V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY), THAT MAY BE RELATED TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN EITHER RECALL. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO HAS A SERIOUS MALFUNCTION WHICH CAUSES EXCESSIVE GASOLINE TO SPEW FROM THE VEHICLE DURING FILLING. THIS OCCURS AT EVERY FILL UP OF THE VEHICLE AND IS VERY DIFFICULT TO PREVENT, EVEN ONCE I BECAME AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE GASOLINE EXIST THE VEHICLE WITH CONSIDERABLE FORCE THE AMOUNT CAN VARY BUT IS TYPICALLY EQUIVALENT TO ~20 FL OZ. NOT ONLY IS THIS A OBVIOUS FIRE/EXPLOSION RISK, BUT IS ALSO A HAZARDOUS CHEMICAL RISK AS THE GASOLINE OFTEN MAKES CONTACT WITH CLOTHES AND SKIN DURING REFUELING. I NOTIFIED DODGE OF THIS ISSUE WAS GIVEN A CASE # HOWEVER WAS NOTIFIED THAT DODGE DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS AN ISSUE AND WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE UNLESS IT IS A RECALL. THERE IS A VERY WELL DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE FROM THE INTERNET TO SUPPORT THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED ISSUE AND THAT MANY OTHER DURANGO OWNERS ARE HAVING THE...

I BOUGHT A USED 2005 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED ON 4/3/2012. AFTER THE PURCHASE I WENT TO THE GAS STATION TO FILL IT UP. GAS SPILLED OUT OF THE TANK WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO FILL THE TANK. SINCE THEN, THIS HAS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND FILED A COMPLAINT BECAUSE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE GAS TANK FILLER TUBES ON SOME DURANGOS, BUT THAT THE RECALL WAS NOT FOR 2005 MODELS. THIS IS A FEARFUL SITUATION AS I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT MY GRANDCHILDREN. *JS

I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED FROM A CERTIFIED CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP. BEFORE FINALIZING PURCHASE, THE DEALERSHIP FILLED THE GAS TANK FOR US. THE SALES MANAGER NOTED THAT HE NEEDED TO CLEAN UP THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE--THAT THE GAS PUMP HAD OVERFLOWED. 2 DAYS LATER WHEN I WENT TO FILL UP THE TANK, I HAD THE SAME ISSUE--THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWED. I HAVE LOOKED THIS ISSUE UP ONLINE AND IT SEEMS THERE WAS A RECALL FOR ONLY A SELECT SET OF VIN NUMBERS. ACCORDING TO CHRYSLER, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. CLEARLY, MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. IT APPEARS THE FIX TO THIS ISSUE IS TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK. ALSO, IT IS NOW CLEAR TO ME THAT THE 2 SMALL RUST BUBBLES NEAR THE GAS TANK ARE BEING CAUSED BY GAS OVERFLOWING EVERY TIME SOMEBODY FILLS UP THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE...

WHEN MY DURANGO IS FILLED WITH GAS IT WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF THE GAS PUMP BUT INSTEAD GAS COMES SPITTING OUT THE FUEL OPENING. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME THAT I FILL MY VEHICLE UP. I DO NOT FILL IT UP ANYMORE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT GAS ALL OVER MY CLOTHES, SHOES OR DOWN THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND NOT TO MENTION THE PUDDLE OF GAS THAT ACCUMULATES ON THE GROUND. I NOTIFIED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER AS WELL AS DAIMLER-CHRYSLER BUT WAS TOLD BY BOTH THAT MY DURANGO WAS NOT IN THE RECALL NOTICE EVEN THOUGH IT WAS DOING THE SAME THING AS WHAT WAS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL. THEY ADVISED ME THAT MY FUEL PROBLEM WAS PROBABLY SOMETHING ELSE ALL TOGETHER WITHOUT EVEN CHECKING IT OUT. I AM ON A LIMITED BUDGET DUE TO UNEMPLOYMENT AND I CANT AFFORD TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK REPLACED. I DON'T...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING, FUEL LEAKED FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE FUEL CAP AND ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ALSO ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE FUEL CAP, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP), THAT MAY BE RELATED TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO 5.7L. RECENTLY AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK THE FUEL "SPITS BACK" OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE TO THE GROUND. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEMS ON THESE AND OTHER CHRYSLER GROUP VEHICLES. I STARTED A CASE WITH CHRYSLER AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AS THEY WANTED. AFTER THE INSPECTION THEY DETERMINED THAT MY VEHICLE DOES NOT FALL UNDER A RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS A TSB # 14-001-09 TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM, BUT, MY VEHICLE IS NOT IN THE VIN RANGE FOR THE REPAIRS. I FEEL IT IS MORE OF A SAFETY ISSUE AND AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE THAN AN INCONVENIENCE. THE DEALER STATES THAT THE FUEL TANK NEEDS REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $800 FOR THE TANK AND 2.5 HOURS OF LABOR....
