2006 DODGE DURANGO Fuel System Gasoline Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL STARTING TO SPILL FROM THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AND DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL CHECK VALVE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP OF PARAMUS (315 ROUTE 4 WEST, PARAMUS, NJ 07652) WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VIN. THE CONTACT REFERENCED TSB NUMBER: 10128990 AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 160,000.

FROM THE TIME MY VEHICLE WAS NEW I HAD ISSUES WITH THE GAS NOZZLE CLICKING OFF BUT THE GAS COMING BACK OUT OF THE TANK. IN THE BEGINNING IT WAS A VERY LITTLE BIT AND I COULD STAND THERE AND MONITOR IT AND PUMP IN SLOWLY AND IT WOULDN?T DO IT. IT HAS STEADILY PROGRESSED TO WHERE EVERY TIME I TRY AND FILL MY TANK THE GAS PUMP WOULD CLICK OFF BUT THE GAS GUSHES OUT ONTO ME AND THE CAR AND THE PAVEMENT ? ANYWHERE FROM 2 TO 5 CUPS OF GAS. THE TANK ISN'T EVEN FULL WHEN IT DOES THIS. I HAVE HAD IT DO IT WHEN I HAVE ONLY PUMPED 1 GALLON INTO THE TANK AND CONTINUE TO CLICK OFF EVERY COUPLE OF CENTS. IT TAKES AT LEAST 10 MINUTES TO PUT GAS IN MY TANK AND THEN IT ISN'T FULL. IT DOES THIS NO MATTER WHAT...

AS I WAS REFUELING I NOTICED IN THE PUMP THAT IT WAS AT 29 GALLONS BUT IT WAS STILL FILLING UP AND MY TANK WASN'T EMPTY SO RIGHT AWAY I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG AND LOOKED ON THE BOTTOM THAT IT WAS SPILLING ALL THE GAS I'M THINKING FROM THE INSIDE OF THE FILLER NECK OR HOSE BUT FROM UNDER THE CAR SO SOMETHING IS WRONG BECAUSE IT DIDN'T STOP FILLING UP, THX *TR

I HAVE TWO ISSUES WITH MY DURANGO. DURING FUELING THE PUMP DOES NOT SHUT OFF CAUSING AN OVERFLOW OF GAS ON THE GROUND, ON MY SHOES, ETC. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. MY MECHANIC THINKS IT IS A SENSOR ISSUE BUT DODGE HAS NOT RECALLED THE VEHICLE TO FIX IT. THE SECOND ISSUE IS I CAN TAKE MY KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION WHILE THE ENGINE AND IGNITION ARE IN THE RUN POSITION, LOCK THE CAR AND TAKE THE KEY WITH ME AND THE ENGINE WILL RUN LIKE THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION. *TR

FUEL SPILLS OUT WHEN FILLING THE TANK. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO USED WITH 119,000 MILES IN NOVEMBER 2013. EVERY TIME I FILL UP, THE GAS OVERFLOWS. I ALWAYS FILL-UP WHEN STOPPING FOR GAS BECAUSE I DRIVE AN HOUR, ONE WAY, INTO TOWN AND HAVE TO GET GAS OFTEN. REGARDLESS OF HOW I PUMP GAS IT ALWAYS OVERFLOWS. I HAVE TRIED PUMPING FAST, PUMPING SLOW, AND PUTTING THE NOZZLE ALL THE WAY IN. I HAVE A TWO YEAR DAUGHTER AND I AM CONCERNED THIS OVERFLOW MAY IGNITE A FIRE. *TR

WHEN I FILLED MY CAR WITH GAS IT THE PUMP KICKED OFF BUT FUEL CAME SPILLING OUT FROM THE TANK. THE FUEL SPILLED OVER ME, THE CAR AND THE GROUND. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A ONE TIME THING BUT IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES, EVEN WHEN I HAVE NOT FILLED THE TANK COMPLETELY. THIS HAS NOW CAUSED SERIOUS RUST AROUND MY TANK AND THROUGH THE CORNER PANEL. IT HAS NOW RUSTED THROUGH COMPLETELY. I AM AFRAID OF THE SAFETY OF THE TANK AND FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS. NOT TO MENTION THE COST OF LOST GAS. *TR

FUEL OVER FLOWS OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. *TR

VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED USED IN APRIL OF 2012 AND THE FUEL OVERFLOW WAS NOTICED IMMEDIATELY UPON PURCHASE. SELLER INFORMED THAT IT WAS A NATIONAL PROBLEM WITH ALL DURANGO VEHICLES AND THERE WAS NO FIX. IN THE MEANTIME, THE FUEL OVERFLOWS AT EACH REFILL AND HAS CAUSED ME TO IMMEDIATELY WASH DOWN THE AREA (WHILE FUELING) TO PREVENT FIRE AND ADDITIONAL CORROSION. *TR

FILLING UP WITH GAS THE NOZZLE CLICKS AND A FEW SECONDS LATER GAS WILL SHOOT OUT OF THE TANK. *TR

VEHICLE SPOTS HAS EVERYWHERE WHEN PUTTING GAS IN. CAN NOT PUT OVER 3/4 TANK IN OR A LEAST A GALLON IS COMING BACK ON YOUR FEET & GROUND. THE PAINT IS ALSO RUSTING UNDER THE GAS CAP NOW DUE TO THIS ISSUE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL YEAR AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS. THE 2005. WAS RECALLED DUE TO THE SAME ISSUE. THIS YEAR ALSO SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED! *TR

GAS OVERFLOWS AFTER FUEL BUMP STOPS DURING EVERY FILL UP. *TR

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF THEN FUEL SPEWS OUT THE FILLER NECK OF THE VEHICLE THIS HAS CAUSED THE PAINT TO COME OFF AND A HOLE TO RUST IN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE JUST UNDER THE FUEL CAP. *TR

PROBLEM WHEN REFILLING THE GAS TANK. WHEN THE TANK GETS FULL, FUEL SPRAYS OUT OF THE GAS TANK FILL PORT. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS FAULTY EQUIPMENT AT THE GAS STATION BUT IT HAS HAPPENED CONSECUTIVE TIMES AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. PROBABLY SPRAYS OUT 8 OR 12 OUNCES. *TR

EVERY TIME WE FILL UP, THE GAS SPILLS OUT. BY THE TIME THE NOZZLE CLICKS, IT'S TOO LATE AND THE FUEL GUSHES OUT OF THE TANK. MY DAUGHTER WAS NEAR ME WHEN IT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME! I'VE USED VARIOUS GAS STATIONS, BUT IT ALWAYS HAPPENS. IT HAS TO BE THE INLET CHECK VALVE IN THE TANK. IT IS NOT USER ERROR. NOW I HAVE TO SIT THERE FOREVER AND PUMP SLOW, OR JUST GO WITH HALF A TANK, AND IN COLORADO, IT'S NOT SAFE TO DO THAT IF WE BREAK DOWN IN THE COLD AND SNOW. NO ONE FILLS THE TANK EXCEPT ME DUE TO OBVIOUS SAFETY REASONS. I CALLED DODGE YEARS AGO AND THEY SAID IT WOULD FALL ON ME TO PAY FOR THEIR PROBLEM! NOW, IT'S JUST GETTING ANNOYING THAT THIS STILL HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. *TR

THE SHUT OFF VALVE HAS NOT WORKED CORRECTLY FOR OVER THE PAST YEAR. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK GAS IS SPIT BACK ON THE CAR AND DRIVEWAY SERVICE. THIS HAPPENS EVEN IF I PAUSE FOR A PERIOD DURING FILLING THE TANK TO LET PRESSURE RELEASE. MY DEALER SAYS THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS, HAD TO BELIEVE WITH SO MANY COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. I WOULD LIKE DODGE TO STEP UP AND TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. HELP....... *TR

WHEN FUELING FUEL SPITS BACK OUT FUEL FILL AFTER FILL NOZZLE SHUTS OFF. SPILLING DOWN THE SIDE AND ON THE GROUND. *TR

WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK, WHEN TANK IS FULL, GAS WILL SPILL OUT FILLER NECK. THE SPILLED GAS SPLASHES EVERYWHERE, AND HAS BEEN ON THE BODY BELOW THE FILLER NECK ENOUGH TIMES THAT IT HAS CAUSED THE PAINT TO LIFT, AND A RUST HOLE TO FORM IN THE FENDER. NO OTHER RUST ON VEHICLE. *TR

DURING REFUELING. ONCE THE GAS NOZZLE CLICKS AND THE TANK IS FULL A GREAT AMOUNT OF GASOLINE SPEWS OUT OF THE TANK. DOES NOT MATTER WHAT GAS STATION IS USED. HAPPENS EVERY TIME AND IS A DEFINITE FIRE RISK. MULTIPLE SEARCHES ONLINE DEMONSTRATE HUNDREDS OF RESULTS AND VIDEOS ABOUT THIS EXACT ISSUE. *TR

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK , IF THE FUEL NOZZLE IS ALLOWED TO AUTO SHUT OFF THE TANK WILL SPEW PRESSURIZED FUEL BACK OUT OF TE FILLER NECK ALL OVER THE PUMP, GROUND AND VEHICLE. *TR

WHILE FILLING THE GAS TANK, THE PUMP SHUTS OFF, THEN FUEL POURS OUT OF THE FILLER. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GAS STATION, AND ALMOST EVERY TIME WE FILL UP THE TANK. THIS AN AN EXTREME HAZARD AND A VERY COSTLY INCONVENIENCE. EVERY TIME WE FILL UP, GAS IS WASTED, THE CAR BECOMES A DANGEROUS AND HORRIBLY SMELLING HAZARD. DODGE RECALLED THE 2005 DURANGO FOR THE SAME ISSUE, BUT HAS YET TO DO THE SAME FOR THE FOLLOWING MODEL YEAR! *TR

YOU CAN NOT FILL THE GAS TANK OVER 3/4 FULL AS IT WILL RESULT IN A MASSIVE FUEL SPILLAGE OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE BACKWASH OUT OF THE TANK WILL COVER YOU AND THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND YOU WITH FUEL. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT KIND OF FUEL STATION IS FILLING IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME. IF THERE WAS ANY KIND OF SPARK A LARGE FIRE WOULD OCCUR. *TR

A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT IS WHEN IT STARTED SPITTING OUT GAS. IT DOE IT WHEN I TRY TO FILL IT UP. I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK FOR TWO YEARS AND NOTHING HAS FIXED THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO FILL IT UP BECAUSE EVERY TIME I DO IT SPITS BACK OUT ON ME TO WHERE IT GET ON MY CLOTHES. I HAVE A TODDLER AND CAN'T RISK HER INHALING THE FUMES SO I CANT FILL THE TRUCK UP CAUSING THE TRUCK EAT THE GAS QUICKER. *TR

DUE TO THE FAULTY FUEL CHECK VALVE MY VEHICLE HAS A LINE OF RUST STRAIGHT DOWN FROM THE GAS CAP. DODGE REPAIRED THE CHECK VALVE BUT WILL NOT COVER ANY BODY WORK DUE TO THE MILEAGE/DATE WHEN THE RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED. WITH DODGE BEING AT FAULT FOR FAULTY EQUIPMENT THEY SHOULD ALSO COVER THE DAMAGE CAUSED TO MY VEHICLE FROM THE EQUIPMENT. I HAVE CONTACTED DODGE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS BUT HAVE BEEN TURNED DOWN FOR A RESOLUTION. PLEASE HELP! *TR

FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS DURING FILL UP. SPILLING TONS OF GAS. BECAUSE OF THE OVERFLOW THERE IS A LOT OF RUST FORMING ON BODY WERE GAS TANK IS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO BODY SHOP TO SEE ABOUT GETTING THE RUST FIXED BUT SAID WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THAT WHOLE AREA BECAUSE RUST ATE THROUGH. TO BE HONEST I THOUGHT I WAS DOING SOMETHING WRONG WHEN FILLING UP AT THE GAS STATION OR SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE PUMP FOR A LONG TIME UNTIL I STARTED RESEARCHING ON INTERNET. I JUST SPOKE TO DODGE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A NEW PROBLEM THAT DODGE JUST EXTENDED THE WARRENTY ON SO WE CAN GET THE FUEL PART FIXED. MY PROBLEM IS THAT WE ALMOST HAVE THIS PAID FOR AND WOULD LIKE TO KEEP FOR A FEW MORE YEARS, HAS LOW MILES, BUT THE RUST AROUND GAS TANK IS BAD....

WHEN FILLING MY VEHICLE AT THE GAS STATION, THE GAS WILL OVERFLOW OR SPIT OUT OF THE TANK INSTEAD OF STOPPING NORMALLY WHEN THE TANK NEARS FULL LEVEL. THIS HAPPENS NO MATTER HOW SLOWLY I AM REFUELING. THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE ON THE 05 MODELS BUT THERE STILL IS NOT ONE FOR THE 06 EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS JUST LIKE THIS. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS FIRE HAZARD THAT NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH BEFORE SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHENEVER REFUELING, HE NOTICED THAT THE FUEL WOULD SPRAY OUT OF THE FILLER NECK CONTINUOUSLY. THE MANUFACTURER OFFERED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY RELATED TO THE FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE; HOWEVER THE PARTS REMAINED UNAVAILABLE FOR THREE MONTHS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND THEY COULD NOT PROVIDE AN EXPECTED DATE FOR THE REMEDY PARTS. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000...UPDATED 07-10-13 *BF

FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS DURING FILL UP.I JUST RECEIVE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE ON 2/01/2013. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW ON MARCH OF 2006. I DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS PROBLEM STARTS BUT NOTICE THE PROBLEM AND BLAME THE GAS STATION FOR THEIR PUMP NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THIS PROBLEM HAS CAUSED ME A LOT OF PROBLEM BECAUSE OF GASOLINE SHOOTING OUT OF A TANK TO SPILL ALL OVER ME (LOSS OF CLOTHES,SHOES AND RASH ON MY ARM, HAND,FOOT AND LEGS).NOW MY CAR WHERE THE FUEL TANKS IS LOCATED CAUSED THE PAINT TO RUST ($600 TO FIX) AND MY BUMPER TO DISCOLORED AND BECAUSE I ROTATE MY TIRES MOST OF MY LOG NUTS($200) HAS TO BE REPLACED.I CANNOT QUANTIFY HOW MUCH GASOLINE I LOSS DURING THAT PERIOD.I HAVE CALLED THEM REGARDING COMPENSATION FOR THIS MATTER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WILL FIX THE PROBLEM WHICH THEY DID BUT NOT COMPENSATE ME. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING, FUEL SPEWED OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 135,931. UPDATED 3/19/13 *CN THE CONSUMER RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE MANUFACTURER STATED THE AFFECTED PARTS HAD AN EXTENDED LIFETIME WARRANTY. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FILLER NECK WAS REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING, GASOLINE BEGAN SPEWING FROM THE FILLER NECK AND THE FUEL PUMP WOULD NOT SHUT OFF.

UPDATED 3/20/13 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED WITHIN TWO SECONDS OF THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF OF THE FUEL NOZZLE, GAS SPEWED BACK OUT OF THE FILLER OPENING WITH THE NOZZLE STILL INSERTED.

WHEN TRYING TO PUT FUEL TO FILL UP THE CAR GAS EXPLODES OUT OF TANK. THIS HAPPENS ANY TIME WHEN TRYING TO PUT GAS IN THE VEHICLE, IT'S PROBABLY AT LEAST A HALF GALLON EACH AND EVERY TIME, IT GETS ALL OVER ME THE VEHICLE THE GROUND. IT'S TO THE POINT WERE I CAN'T EVEN FILL UP, FUEL SHOULDN'T COME OUT WHEN FILLING A VEHICLE UP AND WITH THE SUMMER MONTHS UPON US THIS IS A GREAT HAZARD. I WOULD FIGURE THIS IS A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD AND WOULD NEED TO BE FIXED, 2005 DODGE DURANGOS WERE RECALLED FOR THE EXACT SAME THING, BUT I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING FOR THE 2006 DODGE DURANGOS. *TR

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, AT MULTIPLE DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND PUMPS, THE FUEL TANK OVERFLOW FAILS TO SHUT OFF BEFORE GAS SPILLS OR SPRAYS OUT OF THE TANK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHENEVER REFUELING THE FUEL TANK, GASOLINE POURED OUT FROM THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 73,000.

WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK THE TANK OVERFLOWS SPRAYING GAS ALL OVER. *TR

GASOLINE SPRAYS OUT ALL OVER GROUND AND VEHICLE WHEN FILLING UP. AFTER PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, YOU CAN HEAR THE GASOLINE SUCK BACK UP AND THAN IT SPRAYS OUT. *TR

FUEL SPILL / SPIT BACK DURING REFUELING DUE TO FAULTY INLET CHECK VALVE (ICV). OCCURS EVERY TIME WHEN REFILLING TANK. GAS HAS SPILLED ON MY CLOTHES AND CAUSED IRRITATION TO MY SKIN. IT ALSO SPILLS ALL OVER GROUND. THIS IS BOTH A FLAMMABLE HAZARD AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. CALLED DODGE CORPORATE CUSTOMER CARE IN 2012. THEY ASSIGNED ME A CASE # AND CASE MANAGER. THE CASE MANAGER LOOKED UP MY VIN AND SAID THE DEFECT IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL SHUT OFF VALVE IN THE VEHICLE IS MALFUNCTIONED. BOUGHT USED A FEW WEEKS AGO AND HAVE FILLED UP 3 TIMES NOW, AND EVERY TIME, THE PUMP IS NOT ACTIVATED TO SHUT OF AND FUEL FLIES OUT O THE GAS TANK, GETTING ALL OVER THE VEHICLE, THE GAS PUMP, AND SOMETIMES THE PERSON PUMPING THE GAS. HUGE SAFETY HAZARD!! *TR

THIS PROBLEM STARTED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT 3 1/2 YEARS OLD. IT DID NOT DO THIS FROM THE BEGINNING OF OWNERSHIP. WHEN FUELING THE CAR, IF YOU ATTEMPT TO FILL IT UP COMPLETELY, THERE IS ALWAYS A BACK SPLASH OF FUEL SPLASHING OUT OF THE FUEL TANK AND ONTO THE CAR, PAVEMENT AND OF COURSE, THE PERSON FILLING UP THE CAR. I AM NEVER ABLE TO COMPLETELY FILL UP THE CAR BECAUSE OF THIS. ALSO, WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THERE IS A CHANCE OF A FIRE OCCURRING. NOT SAFE AT ALL. MY RESEARCH FOUND THAT 2005 DODGE DURANGOS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM (CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V034000), YET NOTHING HAS EVER BEEN DONE TO FIX THE SAME ISSUE WITH 2006 MODELS. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM! *TR

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK, FUEL GUSHES OUT OF THE FILL TUBE AS THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. THIS POSES A SERIOUS RISK OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION. IT HAS ALSO RUSTED THE AREA BELOW THE FILL TUBE. *TR

WHILE FUELING THE CAR AT THE GAS STATION I KEEP CONTINUING TO HAVE BACK-FLOW OF GAS WHEN FILLING UP. IT IS HAPPENING EVERY-TIME AND I THINK THIS IS NOT A SAFE THING TO HAVE GAS COMING FLYING BACK OUT AND GETTING OVER THE GROUND. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE FOUND THERE IS A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THE 2005 MODELS AND NOW THE 2006'S ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE INQUIRY IS RQ08005 AND THE RECALL IS 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE STORAGE TANK ASSEMBLY FILLER PIPE AND CAP). WE NEED TO PRESSURE THEM TO FIX THIS ISSUE FOR ALL THE DURANGO'S. *TR

WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK COMPLETELY, FUEL SPITS BACK OUT AT THE OWNER AND DOWN THE QUARTER PANEL, EVERY TIME. WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED ONE MONTH AGO. WE'VE TRIED DIFFERENT GAS PUMPS AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS OWNED BY DIFFERENT COMPANIES. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL THAT COVERS EARLIER DURANGOS. I RATHER LICK A FAT CLOWN'S [XXX] THAN BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) *JS

THERE HAVE BEEN 2 RECALLS TO DATE ON THE MODEL YEAR 2005 DURANGO, 44,951 ALL TOGETHER. WITH MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO, FUEL SPRAYS OUT OF THE FILL TUBE BECAUSE OF A CHECK VALVE THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN RECALLED TWO DIFFERENT TIMES. NO WARNINGS, NO LETTERS TO THE OWNERS OF THE DURANGO NOW TO ADVISE THEM TO USE CAUTION. PLEASE OPEN AN INVESTIGATION NOW AND HAVE THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE CORRECTED FOR ALL OF THE DURANGO OWNERS ON THE ROAD TODAY. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCNERN. THE PROBLEM HAS ALREADY BEEN IDENTIFIED IN EARLIER MODELS, AND THERE SEEMS TO BE SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH THE 2006 MODELS AS WELL.

DURING REFUELING, WHEN THE FUEL NOZZLE STOPS, THERE IS AN OVERFLOW OF FUEL SPRAYING OUT OF THE FUEL TANK NECK. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR YOUR AGENCY TO HAVE AN INVESTIGATION? FOR AN INDIVIDUAL TO BURN WHILE PUMPING GAS DUE TO A SPARK OR EVEN WORSE, TO DIE? THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME CAR ON THE PREVIOUS YEAR, WHY IS THERE NO RECALL FOR THE 2006 MODEL SINCE IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM? *TR

GASOLINE SPRAYS BACK ONTO PERSON FILLING THE TANK AFTER THE PUMP KICKS OFF. SAFETY ISSUE JUST PURCHASED AS A USED VEHICLE FROM THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN PULASKI , WI S&L MOTORS 2298 HWY 32 PULASKI,WI 54162 *JS

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK WITH GASOLINE, THE GAS WILL COME SPILLING OUT ONCE THE TANK IS FULL. APPROXIMATELY A PINT OF GASOLINE COMES SQUIRTING OUT, DOUSING THE HANDLE, SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND LEAVING A PUDDLE OF GASOLINE ON THE GROUND. THE ONLY WAY FOR THIS TO NOT HAPPEN IS TO PREVENT FILLING THE CAR GAS TANK. I.E. ONE CANNOT LET THE GAS OVERFLOW MECHANISM DETERMINE WHEN IT IS FULL. A RECALL WAS ALREADY MADE FOR THE 2005 DURANGO UNDER RECALL ID# 05V034000. MY USED 2006 VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. *JS

BEGINNING ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO SLT BEGAN SPEWING GASOLINE EVERYTIME I FILLED MY CAR AT THE GAS STATION. IT CONTINUES TO DO THIS SINCE THAT TIME AND EVEN THOUGH DODGE HAS ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM, SINCE MY CAR'S VIN IS NOT LISTED AS ELIGIBLE FOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND REPAIR I AM OUT OF LUCK. I FILED AN APPEAL WITH DODGE AND IT SEEMS THE CRITERIA FOR WHETHER OR NOT THE REPAIR WILL BE COVERED IS BASED ON WHETHER I AM A GOOD DODGE CUSTOMER. QUESTIONS SUCH AS DID I USE THE DEALERSHIP FOR MAINTENANCE, DID I OWN OTHER DODGE CARS, ETC. I THINK THAT SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, THAT DODGE SHOULD STAND BEHIND ITS CARS AND MAKE THE REPAIR. THIS ATTITUDE GUARANTEES THAT I WILL NOT BE A DODGE CUSTOMER IN THE FUTURE. *JS

EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS IT ERUPTS BACK OUT OF THE TANK. THE LOCAL DEALER SAYS IT IS THE FUEL TANK FILLER CHECK VALVE. THIS IS LOCATED INSIDE THE FUEL TANK. THE SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK. DODGE DID A RECALL ON THE 2005 DURANGO BUT NOT THE 2006 DURANGO. $900 FOR THE PART PLUS LABOR. *TR
