2005 Dodge Durango complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN REFUELING, GASOLINE FUEL WOULD SPEW FROM THE FILLER NECK, SPLASHING GASOLINE ONTO THE CONTACT. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING BUT THE DEALER REFUSED TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN I.D. NUMBER: 09V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY) AND CALLED THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

REASON FOR FILING A VEHICLE SAFETY COMPLAINT IS AS FOLLOWS; EVERY TIME I HAVE TRIED TO FILL-UP MY GAS TANK ON MY 2005 DODGE, THE GAS NOT ONLY STARTS TO SHOOT OUT OF THE TANK ITSELF, BUT ALSO ALL OVER MY TRUCK, MYSELF AND ALL OVER THE FLOOR. THE SECURITY DODGE DEALER WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IS INSISTING THERE IS NO SUCH RECALL FOR THIS SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS ISSUE. ON TOP OF THAT, THEY ARE SUGGESTING THAT I TAKE IT IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION AND PAY $ 110.00 AN HOUR LABOR FEE. PLEASE NOTE I AM A SMOKER THOUGH NOT PROUD OF IT. EVEN IF I WEREN'T I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY REFUSE TO SEE THIS AS A INCIDENT/ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN NOW OR IN THE FUTURE. I WOULD THINK THIS WOULD BE LESS OF A COST TO THEM, RATHER TAKING A CHANCE WITH A LIFE OR LIVES BEING LOST. PRIORITIES ?????? IN THE MEANTIME I'LL CONTINUE TO HAVE TO CARRY LOTS OF PAPER TOWELS WHEN GETTING GAS. STARTED NOV. 1ST. 2012. *TR

THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE SLOWING TO TURN ONTO STREET FROM INTERSECTION. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES MONTHLY. *TR

I HAVE HAD MY CAR STALL/DIE ON ME NUMEROUS TIMES OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. I HAVE HAD THE EGR VALVE REPLACED, THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FILTERS CHANGED AND THEY DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. WHILE I AM DRIVING AND SLOW DOWN TO TURN OR SLOW DOWN TO TURN INTO A PARKING SPOT, THE ENGINE WILL DIE/STALL. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN RESTART IT. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE HAD TO PREVENT A FEW ACCIDENTS FROM HAPPENING. IT HAPPENED ONE TIME I WAS TURNING ONTO ANOTHER STREET INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I AM FRIGHTENED FOR MY CHILDREN'S SAFETY. I HAVE READ SO MANY OF THE EXACT SAME COMPLAINTS BY OTHER OWNERS AND WONDER WHY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS YET?? ARE WE WAITING UNTIL PEOPLE DIE IN CAR ACCIDENTS DUE TO THE LACK OF CONCERN? THANK YOU *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE FROM WORK, OIL LIGHT COME ON. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND CHECKED THE OIL. THE LEVEL ON THE DIPSTICK WAS IN THE SAFE ZONE. I THEN HAD IT TOWED TO MY MECHANIC THAT TOLD METH THE MOTOR WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. I NEVER HAD ANY OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE DURANGO UNTIL THEN. OIL WAS ALWAYS CHANGED AT 3,000 MILES. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THERE IS SLUDGE BUILD UP BECAUSE OF THE DESIGN/ANGLE OF THE PORTS THAT DOESN'T ALLOW THE OIL TO MOVE FREELY. APPARENTLY IS THIS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS, NO ONE HAS THE MONEY TO PUT ALMOST $4,000 INANOTHER ENGINE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT WAS REFUELING THE VEHICLE WHEN FUEL SPRAYED OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MECHANIC ADVISED THAT THE AIR VENTILATION FILTER FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND ADVISED THAT THE AIR VENTILATION FILTER WAS NOT SOLD SEPARATELY AND THAT THE ENTIRE FUEL TANK WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY) AND WAS REPAIRED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE MOST RECENT FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING, FUEL SPEW BACK OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 69,714.

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WE ARE HAVING AN ISSUE WERE THE FUEL WILL NOT SHUT OFF AT THE PUMP. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THAT YEAR, BUT SURPRISINGLY ENOUGH OUR VIN # DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL. WE HAD THE FUEL TANK REPLACED IN JANUARY OF 2008 UNDER WARRANTY FOR THE SAME ISSUE. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE TANKS AND THEIR MANUFACTURING PROCESS. CONCERN IS THE TANK WAS REPLACED WITH A DEFECTIVE TANK THAT WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THE RECALL TIME FRAME, BUT CONCERNED IS NOT BEING ADDRESSED BECAUSE THE VIN # DOES NOT FALL WITH IN A CERTAIN MANUFACTURING DATE. I AM GREATLY CONCERNED DUE TO THE RECALL STATING THAT THE ISSUE CAN CAUSE FIRE. WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR DODGE TO RECOGNIZE THE ISSUE. *TR

UPON FUELING GAS TANK UNTIL FILL, GAS TANK SPEWS GASOLINE OUT OF FILLER TUBE. TOOK IT IN TO INSPECTION, AND WAS REJECTED, DUE TO SLIGHT EMISSIONS LEAK. FAILED INSPECTION. TOOK TO DIAGNOSTICS CENTER AND HAD SMOKE TEST. RESULTED IN A SLIGHT LEAK THAT CAN NOT BE FOUND. ADVISED TO HAVE TOTAL FUEL TANK AND REFILL ASSEMBLY REPLACED AT $700 +. CALLED CHRYSLER RECALL HOTLINE, AND VIN DID NOT MATCH FOR POTENTIAL RECALL POTENTIAL. *TR

THE VEHICLE WILL AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGE ITSELF INTO 4-WHEEL DRIVE MODE. THE INCIDENTS USUALLY HAPPEN AT LOW SPEEDS. ALTHOUGH, THE INCIDENT CAN, HAS, AND WILL HAPPEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS. WHEN IT OCCURS AT LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WILL ACCELERATE SLOWLY AND REFUSE TO TURN. WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENS AT HIGHER SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WILL SEEMINGLY LOCK THE TIRES AND IF NOT HANDLED CORRECTLY THE DRIVER CAN LOSE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE SUV. THIS PARTICULAR DEFECT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE AMONG DODGE DURANGO 2ND GENERATION OWNERS. MANY SAY THE DODGE DEALERSHIPS ARE SKEPTICAL ON WHAT EXACT REPAIR IS NECESSARY TO FIX THE APPARENT SAFETY ISSUE. DURANGO OWNERS EXPERIENCES WITH TECHNICIANS SHOW MANY TIMES THEY REPORTEDLY POINT THE FINGER AT VARIOUS HIGH DOLLAR REPAIRS. SOME HAVE HAD SUCCESS WITH REPLACING THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR BUT SOME WHO HAVE PURSUED THIS REPAIR HAVE AGAIN REPORTED THE SAME ISSUE AFTER THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED. ORIGINALLY, THE SAFETY CONCERN WAS EXTREMELY RARE. RECENTLY, THE PROBLEM HAS BECOME MORE CONSISTENT. IT IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD AS IT CAN CAUSE COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE LARGE VEHICLE. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS, FUEL SHOOTS OUT OF THE TUBE AND ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

ACCORDING TO THIS SITE THERE ARE A COUPLE RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE YEAR AND MODEL THAT REFERENCE A RECALL ABOUT THIS. I CALLED THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE DID NOT QUALIFY. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A USED DODGE DURANGO FROM A USED CAR DEALER. THE FIRST TIME THE GAS STATION ATTENDANT FILLED UP THE GAS TANK, IT OVERFLOWED. GASOLINE WAS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY CAR AND ONTO THE GROUND. THE ATTENDANT WAS NOT TOUCHING THE GAS PUMP HANDLE. THE SECOND TIME I HAD THE CAR REFUELED AT COSTCO, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME, IT WAS EVEN MORE OF A SPILL AND HELD UP THE REFUELING OF OTHER VEHICLES FOR QUITE SOME TIME WHILE THE ATTENDANT MOPPED UP THE SPILT FUEL ON THE SIDE OF MY CAR AND GROUND. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER AND REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THEM. THEY CHECKED MY VIN # WITH RECALL NOTICES REGARDING THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. THERE WAS A RECALL ID # 54823 WHICH AFFECTED 26,000 VEHICLES, BUT APPARENTLY NOT MY VIN #. I THEN CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORPORATION. THEY ALSO SAID THAT MY VIN # DID NOT HAVE A RECALL NOTICE ON THE FUEL SYSTEM. RECALL ID # 54823 STATES "THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE INLET CHECK VALVE MAY NOT FULLY CLOSE AT THE END OF REFUELING. THIS COULD ALLOW SOME FUEL TO ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE FILLER NECK AT THE END OF REFUELING." I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT WITH SIMILAR MAKES AND MODELS MANUFACTURED BY CHRYSLER CORPORATION. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD INCUR AN EXPENSE FOR A SAFETY ITEM THAT HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED. PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THIS SAFETY DEFECT BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT.

I PURCHASED A DODGE DURANGO IN 2007. AT THE TIME THE CAR HAD 24000 MILES. AROUND 2009 THE CAR WHEN I FILLED THE TANK WITH GAS AND REMOVED THE PUMP HANDLE FROM THE DURANGO THE GAS WOULD OVERFLOW ALL OVER. SO IN 2009 I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN NORTH FLORIDA AVE. THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECALLS FOR THIS CAR. AT THIS POINT THE CAR HAD 29,000 MILES. UP TO THIS DATE I STILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP IN 2010, 2011, AND 2012 FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY STILL TELL ME THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. SO I DECIDED TO LOOK ONLINE FOR THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS A LOT OF 2005 DURANGO WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP THE VEHICLE WITH GASOLINE THE FILLER TUBE DOES NOT CLOSE AND GASOLINE COMES UP AND OUT OF THE TUBE. I WAS INFORMED THAT NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN ISSUED, AS WELL AS, TWO RECALLS, BUT SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN 3-2005 IT IS NOT COVERED. AS THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY AND FIRE THIS RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED AS OBVIOUSLY IT AFFECTS MORE VEHICLES THEN IN THE PAST RECALL NOTICES. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS, FUEL SHOOTS OUT OF THE TUBE AND ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

WHEN I FILL MY GAS TANK TO FULL OR CLOSE TO FULL, THE GAS LEAKS OR SPRAYS BACK AROUND THE FUEL DOOR.

THIS CAR HAS STALLED MULTIPLE OF TIMES, WITH NO LIGHTS, NO WARNING OF IT GOING TO HAPPEN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO BOB BOYD DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR 6 YEARS AGO. IT NOW HAS AROUND 80000 MILES ON IT AND IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS, IT HAS STARTED TO GET WORSE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY CANT DO ANYTHING WITH IT UNTIL THE CAN REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT THERE, IT WAS 1 YEAR AFTER I BOUGHT IT, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AS THEY SAID THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. WAS TILL THE YEAR AND NOW THE PROBLEM IS BACK AGAIN. THIS TIME MORE FREQUENT. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THEM TWICE NOW AND THEY GIVE ME THE SAME ANSWER, THAT THEY CANT FIX IT TILL IT BREAKS, THEY HAVE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM TO MAKE SURE THEY CAN FIX IT, MEANWHILE, I HAVE A CAR THAT'S NOT WORKING RIGHT AND VERY DANGEROUS. THEY HAD THE CAR FOR TWO DAYS THE FIRST TIME, AND THEN TOOK IT BACK TO THEM AFTER IT STALLED DRIVING IT HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THE SECOND TIME, THEY KEPT IT FOR OVER A WEEK, STILL, THEY SAY THEY CANT FIX IT CAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. YOU CAN GOOGLE THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS WIDE SPREAD ACROSS THIS COUNTRY, OTHER DODGE PRODUCTS ARE DOING THE SAME THING AND THE DEALERSHIPS AREN'T DOING ANYTHING TO FIX IT. PLEASE CONTACT THESE PEOPLE AND GIVE US CONSUMERS A FIGHTING CHANCE IN GETTING THIS FIXED. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER DODGE PRODUCT AFTER THIS. THANKS FOR READING THIS, AND IF YOU DECIDE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, THANK YOU DEA

WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK, GAS SPEWS OUT OF FILLER TUBE POSING FIRE RISK, DAMAGING CLOTHING, AND ADDING VOC'S TO ATMOSPHERE. MANY COMPLAINTS OF SAME THING AND EVEN RECALLS ON VARIOUS MODEL YEARS. MAKES VERY LITTLE SENSE WHY DODGE OR NTSB DOESN'T CONNECT THE DOTS AND CORRECT THIS PROBLEM IN A COMPREHENSIVE FASHION. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING BACK INTO TOWN FROM A FAMILY VISIT. WE SLOWED DOWN COMING BACK INTO TOWN AND MY VEHICLE STALLED OUT WHEN WE STARTED SLOWING DOWN. WE ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. WE TRIED TO START IT BACK UP HOWEVER MY VEHICLE KEPT STALLING OUT. I TOOK IT TO THREE DIFFERENT PLACES INCLUDING THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THEY KEPT TELLING ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. AFTER OVER A THOUSAND DOLLARS AT THE DEALERS AND SEVERAL HUNDRED MORE AT THE OTHER TWO PLACES TO THIS DAY IT STILL CUTS OUT AND STALLS OUT WHEN I AM DRIVING IT. NOW BECAUSE IT IS A HAZARD WE DO NOT DRIVE IT AT ALL AND IT IS PARKED IN OUR BACK YARD WAITING FOR A MIRACLE TO HAPPEN...THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. SINCERELY VERY FRUSTRATED. *TR

WHEN I AM FILLING UP MY GAS TANK AT A GAS STATION, THE PUMP WILL KICK OFF WHEN FULL AND A FEW SECONDS AFTER YOU CAN HEAR FUEL RUSHING UP THE TUBE AND THEN SPRAYS OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND ON THE GROUND. THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE IS STARTING TO RUST BECAUSE OF THIS AND I HAVE BEEN HELD RESPONSIBLE TO FUEL CLEANUP AT A FEW GAS STATIONS. ITS MY UNDERSTANDING THERE WAS A RECALL ISSUED ON SOME VEHICLES BUT SINCE I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER, I AM NOT SURE IF THIS WAS TAKEN CARE OF. *TR

GASOLINE WAS EJECTED FROM MY FILL TUBE AT THE GAS STATION. AFTER FILLING THE TANK THE GAS NOZZLE CLICKED TO STOP AND FUEL SHOT OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE COVERING ME AND MY CAR IN GASOLINE. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME THE CAR IS FILLED. *TR I UNDERSTAND CHRYSLER/DODGE HAS RECOGNIZED THIS PROBLEM IN MANY VEHICLES BUT FOR SOME REASON MY VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED.

AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE. DID FILL UPS AT THREE DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND SAME RESULT.

FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED AT A LOW SPEED COMING INTO A TURN. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MOST DURANGO OWNERS HAD LUCK WITH FUEL SYSTEM CLEANING AND/OR EGR VALVE REPLACEMENTS. I DID BOTH, AND THE VEHICLE RAN FINE UP UNTIL TODAY (2 MONTHS LATER). THERE WERE PREVIOUS "INVESTIGATIONS" FOR RECALL SERVICES A FEW YEARS BACK, BUT THEY WERE CLOSED OUT. I HOPE DODGE DECIDES TO OPEN AN INVESTIGATION AGAIN.. I DO NOT WANT TO BE PAYING $200 EVERY 2 MONTHS FOR FUEL CLEANING SERVICES. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. *TR
