2005 Dodge Durango complaints

WHEN FUELING CAR IF ALLOWED TO FILL IT FULL FUEL SPILLS OUT BACK AT YOU EVERYTIME. *TR

I OWN A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHENEVER THE VEHICLE RUNS THROUGH A MODERATELY SIZED RAIN PUDDLE AND WATER IS SPRAYED UP UNDER THE CAR THE POWER STEERING FAILS BUT RETURNS TO SERVICE A SHORT TIME AFTER. THIS HAS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY AND THE DEALER HAS BEEN CALLED AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM BUT SAY NOTHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT IT. IT IS TRULY A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ALONG WITH MY WIFE AND SONS. I LIVE IN TAMPA, FL AND RAINFALL IS QUITE ROUTINE (APPROX 52 INCHES/YR) AND PUDDLES CANNOT BE AVOIDED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE ADDING FUEL TO THE GAS TANK HE NOTICED THAT THE GAS WOULD SPILL BACK OUT. HE THOUGHT HE WAS ADDING MORE FUEL TO THE VEHICLE THAN IT NEEDED. SIX MONTHS LATER, HE NOTICED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED MORE FREQUENTLY. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND THEY STATED THAT THE GAS TANK NECK COULD BE DEFECTIVE. HE NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER AND THEY ADVISED HIM THAT HIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL 09V003000 FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO STATED THAT HE COULD TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED AND THEY WOULD PAY FOR THE REPAIR, AS LONG AS HE PAID THE DEDUCTIBLE. THE VEHICLE WILL BE REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

WHEN FUELING MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO JUST AFTER FUELING IS COMPLETE AND PUMP SHUTS OFF, FUEL SPRAYS BACK THROUGH FILLER NECK. THERE IS A CURRENT RECALL THAT IS TO REPAIR THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON OTHER 2005 DODGE DURANGO, HOWEVER, THE DEALER SAYS MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. THERE IS EVEN A CASE NUMBER LISTED ON YOUR SITE. RQ08005. I HAVE CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AND CHRYSLER AND THEY HAVE OFFERED TO DO NOTHING MORE THAN CHARGE ME TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL OVERFLOWS WHEN FUELING MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO. IT USED TO HAPPEN ONCE IN A WHILE BUT NOW IT HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL BUT MY DEALER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING HE CAN DO SINCE MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. *TR

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO HAS GAS SPILL OUT WHEN IT IS FILLED UP. THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT IS TO NOT COMPLETELY FILL THE TANK. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL GAS STATIONS. WHY IS DODGE NOT HONORING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THERE IS A FIRE AND SOMEBODY DOES GET HURT? *TR

I PURCHASE MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO SXT IN EARLY DECEMBER OF 2009. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 52,663 MILES ON IT. I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WHEN FILLING MY DURANGO WITH GAS. WHEN I FILL IT UP IT DOESN'T SHUT OFF CAUSING GAS TO SHOOT OUT EVERYWHERE, OVER MY CAR, GROUND AND MYSELF ONCE GETTING IT IN MY FACE. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THAT IT MAY HAVE BEEN JUST A PUMP ISSUE AT THE GAS STATION, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT 3 OTHER STATIONS AS WELL. I READ ON MANY DIFFERENT FORUMS THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. I WAS WONDERING WHAT INFORMATION OR STEPS I NEED TO TAKE AS THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. I APPRECIATE ANY INFORMATION YOU COULD HAVE FOR ME. *TR

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO HAS GAS SPILL OUT WHEN IT IS FILLED UP. THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT IS TO NOT COMPLETELY FILL THE TANK. THE DEALER IS GOING TO DIAGNOSE IT AND IF THEY SUGGEST REPLACING THE FUEL TANK THEN I WILL HAVE TO PAY A $100 DEDUCTIBLE SINCE I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE STATED MY VIN WAS NOT IN THE RECALL AND REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT IT IS THE SAME ISSUE THEY RECALLED 18,000 2005 DURANGO'S FOR THEY SAID IT SHOULD BE DONE AT MY EXPENSE. THIS ISSUE OCCURS AT ANY GAS STATION I GO TO ANY TIME I TRY TO FILL THE TANK. WE HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALER IN THE PAST FOR THIS ISSUE WHEN IT OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY AND NOTHING WAS DONE AT THAT TIME AS IT DID NOT OCCUR WITH THE DEALER. *TR

WHEN FILLING TANK WITH FUEL, THE PUMP WILL CLICK OFF WHEN "FULL". THEN APPROXIMATELY 0.5 SEC AFTER PUMP KICK OFF FUEL WILL FLOW OUT FROM AROUND PUMP NOZZLE AND OVERFLOW HOLE IN THE PUMP HANDLE BOOT. WHEN IT FIRST OCCURRED IT WAS VERY LITTLE FUEL. NOW IT WILL SPILL OUT APPROXIMATELY 2 CUPS OF FUEL. *TR

2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT/HEMI. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, THE PUMP HANDLE WILL STOP, THEN THE TANK FILLS AND ABOUT 1 OR 2 CUPS OF GASOLINE BLOWS OUT OF THE TANK THROUGH THE FILLER NECK ONTO ME, THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. YOUR WEBSITE SHOWS A RECALL FOR THIS, HOWEVER DODGE AND THE DEALERSHIPS SAY IT IS NOT FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIRED YET DUE TO THE COST. I HAVE BEEN COVERED IN GASOLINE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO MY VEHICLE AS WELL. THE GAS TANK RECALLS ARE EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON W/ MY VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL MECHANICS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE. IN ADDITION TO SAFETY A FUEL SPILL IS NOT LEGAL AND MUST BE CLEANED. *TR

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO MFG DATE 9/04 WAS NOT PART OF THE E01 RECALL AND HAS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH FUEL 'WELL BACK". *TR

GAS DOES NOT STOP WHEN FILLING TANK. THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF AND THEN GAS POURS OUT OF THE CAR'S TANK SPILLING ON THE GROUND. *TR

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE TO FULL, FUEL WILL SPILL OUT CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER ABOUT A POSSIBLE RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE, AND I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CURRENT SAFETY RECALL. THE OVERFLOWING HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FUELED. *TR

2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT/HEMI. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, THE PUMP HANDLE WILL STOP, THEN THE TANK BURPS AND GASOLINE BLOWS OUT OF THE TANK THROUGH THE FILLER NECK. YOUR WEBSITE SHOWS A RECALL FOR THIS, HOWEVER DODGE AND THE DEALERSHIPS SAY IT IS NOT FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIRED YET DUE TO THE COST. I HAVE BEEN COVERED IN GASOLINE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO MY VEHICLE AS WELL. THE GAS TANK RECALLS ARE EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON W/ MY VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL MECHANICS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE AND SOME DEALERS WILL TAKE CARE OF IT AND SOME WILL NOT DEPENDING ON IF IT FITS IN THE RECALL RANGE. *TR

FUEL GUSHES FROM FILLER WHEN PUMP HANDLE CLICKS OFF AFTER FILLING. *TR

UPON FILLING UP AT A GAS STATION. MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT WILL SPIT FUEL BACK APPROX 5 SECS AFTER CLICKING OFF AT THE PUMP. MY TRUCK WAS BUILT JAN 2005, 1 MONTH OUTSIDE OF THE ORGINAL RECALL WINDOW AND SUBSEQUENT NEW WINDOW. I HAVE CHECKED THE WWW AND IT SEEMS ALOT OF OWNERS HAVE SIMILAR ISSUES. I WOULD SUGGEST THAT THE ORIGINAL CLEAN/ DIRTY POINT PROVIDED BY THE TEIR 1 SUPPLIER WAS INCORRECT AND INFACT DID NOT CAPTURE ALL VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A HUGE SAFTEY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE CHANGED TO ENCOMPASS ALL 2005 DURANGOS AS IT IT OBVIOUS THAT THE CURRENT CLEAN POINT WAS INEFFECTIVE.

FUEL SPIT-BACK FROM 2005, DODGE, DURANGO (MANUFACTURERED 03/2005). ACCORDING TO NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V003000, THIS PROBLEM WAS SOLVED ON ALL VEHICLES MANUFACTURED AFTER 11/30/04 AND THE COMPLAINT CLOSED. IT IS TIME TO REVISIT THIS PROBLEM, AS INDICATED ABOVE, MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED AFTER THAT DATE. I AND FUEL STATION ATTENDANTS ARE "DODGING'" THE VIOLENT ERUPTION OF FUEL FROM THE FILLER NECK. SEEMS TO ME A NEW RECALL IS NECESSARY. *TW

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO HAS THE DEFECTIVE FUEL TANK FILLER INLET CHECK VALVE DESCRIBED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 09V003000. THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY PERFORMANCE DODGE THE DODGE DEALER IN LINCOLN, NEBRASKA. CHRYSLER CLAIMS MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL, HOWEVER THE NEEDED REPLACEMENT PART IS ON NATIONWIDE BACK ORDER DUE TO THIS RECALL. I HAVE CONFIRMED MY VEHICLE HAS THE DEFECTIVE PART AND CHRYSLER SHOULD REPLACE IT AT NO CHARGE. I HAVE NOTICED SPILLAGE WHILE REFUELING FOR SEVERAL YEARS BUT DID NOT REALIZE IT WAS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE PART. *CN *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT OBSERVED AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPILLING FROM THE FUEL TANK. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHENEVER FUEL WAS DISPENSED INTO THE FUEL TANK, FOLLOWED BY FUEL SPRAYING OUT OF THE TANK. THE FUEL NOZZLE STOPPED WHEN THE TANK WAS FULL WITH FUEL CONTINUOUSLY SPRAYING OUT OF THE TANK. THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL. THERE WAS CONCERN OF THE POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000. UPDATED 03/01/10 *BF UPDATED 05/05/10*JB

2005 DODGE DURANGO FUEL CHECK VALVE PROBLEM. GAS COMES BACK OUT OF THE FUEL TANK WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE. I'VE BEEN DRENCHED WITH GAS MANY TIMES, LUCKY THERE WAS NO STATIC DISCHARGE IN THE AREA! I WAS HIT THE EYE WITH FUEL ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. CHRYSLER KNOWS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS ONE RECALL AND AN EXTENSION OF THAT RECALL BUT REFUSES TO WARRANTY MY VEHICLE STATING THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT EFFECTED! OBVIOUSLY, I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE OTHER VEHICLES COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AND WITH 2 YOUNG CHILDREN I'M EVEN MORE CONCERNED. THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM ALSO AGREES THIS IS THE SAME DEFECT AS THE OTHER DURANGOS COVERED BY THE RECALL. CHRYSLER IS JUST IGNORING THE FACT THAT MORE VEHICLE ARE EFFECT BECAUSE THE INITIAL INVESTIGATION IS CLOSED BUT DOES NEED TO RE-OPEN, IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE! THE DATE BELOW IS NOT CORRECT, THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR WELL OVER A YEAR BUT IT IS GETTING WORSE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. HE STATED WHILE FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GASOLINE FUEL, IT WOULD SPEW BACK OUT SPILLING ALL OVER THE CONTACT. THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE AND HE HAD NOT TAKEN IT FOR REPAIRS, TO DATE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000 AND THE CURRENT WAS 70,000. THE VIN WAS NOT ACCEPTED.

RECENTLY, TOYOTA HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH SPONTANEOUS ACCELERATION. IT APPEARS THAT BOTH FOOT PEDAL AND ELECTRONICS ARE AT FAULT. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM MAY BE MORE WIDESPREAD. I OWN A 2005 DODGE DURANGO WHICH SUFFERED FROM SPONTANEOUS ACCELERATION. THE "BRAIN" HAD TO BE REPLACED TWICE. ONCE WHEN I GOT THE SUV AND LAST YEAR. IT WOULD BE INTERESTING IF THE ELECTRONIC COMPUTER PART OR PARTS WERE MADE BY THE SAME MANUFACTURER. IN BOTH OF MY CASES IT COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY. PLEASE PASS THIS ON SO IT WILL NOT GET LOST IN THE "SHUFFLE". *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT WITH THE 5.7L V8 HEMI. I JUST PURCHASED IT USED JANUARY 16TH OF 2010 WITH 80,000 MILES ON IT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEGUN TO STALL (THE STEERING LOCKS UP, BRAKES HARD TO PUSH, ENGINE CUTS OFF) WHEN MAKING TURNS OCCASIONALLY FROM THE STOPPED POSITION, OR WHEN ACCELERATING. IT VARIES AS TO WHEN THIS HAPPENS, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME 5 TIMES SINCE JAN. 16TH. THE LATEST INCIDENT WAS YESTERDAY (FEB 1ST) WHILE MAKING A TURN OFF OF ROCKPORT ROAD ONTO HIGHWAY 37 NORTH IN BLOOMINGTON, INDIANA. THE SPEED LIMIT IS 60 IN THIS STRETCH OF THE HIGHWAY, AND AS I WAS TURNING ONTO THE HIGHWAY THE DURANGO QUIT WORKING. I IMMEDIATELY PUT IT IN PARK AND STARTED IT BACK UP AND FLOORED IT IN REVERSE TO GET BACK ONTO ROCKPORT ROAD. I HAD GIVEN MYSELF AMPLE SPACE TO PULL ONTO THE HIGHWAY TO AVOID TRAFFIC, HOWEVER AT THOSE SPEEDS, TWO VEHICLES HAD APPROACHED RATHER FAST. THIS MORNING I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH INTO THIS PROBLEM AT WORK, AND I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND ONE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. THE DEALERSHIPS SAYS THE ENGINES ARE GOING BAD, THE SENSORS NEED REPLACED. WELL I AM HERE TO TELL YOU THESE ARE ALL LIES. I WORK AS A SALES REPRESENTATIVE AT THE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP DEALERSHIP IN BLOOMINGTON INDIANA, AND OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT (THE SAME AS EVERY SINGLE ONE IN THE US) DIAGNOSES THESE PROBLEMS "TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITY", ABILITY THAT IS TERRIBLE IN MY EYES. THEY ARE THERE TO MAKE MONEY OF EVE

GAS SPRAYS OUT WHEN FUELING 2005 DODGE DURANGO. STARTED ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO. I CONTACTED THE DODGE DEALER AT THAT TIME AND THEY SAID THEY'D NEVER HEARD OF A PROBLEM LIKE THAT AND THAT IT MUST BE FAULTY GAS PUMPS. PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN WORSE AND NOW OCCURS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. I CONTACTED THE DODGE DEALER AGAIN AND THEY SAID THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT THAT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY INDEPENDENT AUTO SHOP WHICH VERIFIED THAT THERE IS A FAULTY FUEL INLET CHECK VALVE AND THAT IT IS A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD. THEY ALSO VERIFIED THAT THE RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THIS SAME FAULTY PART BUT THAT THE DODGE DEALER TOLD THEM THIS VEHICLE WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL WHEN THEY CONTACTED THEM ON MY BEHALF. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO THE FUEL COMES SPILLING OUT OF THE FILL PIPE. IF I DO NOT STAND BACK IN TIME IT EJECTS FUEL ALL OVER ME, MY HANDS, MY CLOTHES, THE GROUND AND THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED DODGE OVER A WEEK AGO AND HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM. I CHECKED THE VIN FOR RECALLS AND IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THAT IS GOING ON WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE FILLING THE GAS TANK AND WHEN THE TANK IS FULL, THE FUEL FILLER NOZZLE CLICKS OFF BUT THEN GASOLINE OVERFLOWS OUT OF THE FUEL TANK FILLER NECK AND USUALLY SPRAYS INTO THE AIR. THIS HAPPENS 99% OF EVER REFUELING TRIP TO A GAS STATION. THE GAS USUALLY SPRAYS OUT AND GETS ALL OVER THE PERSON REFUELING. I HAD THE DODGE DEALERSHIP LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AT THE TIME OF THE FIRST INCIDENT BUT NOTHING WAS DONE TO FIX IT. THE DODGE DEALER WANTS APPROXIMATELY $700 TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE GAS TANK IN ORDER TO FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR

2005 DODGE DURANGO; GAS SPILLS OUT AFTER FILLING WITH GAS AT GAS STATION. DEALER SAID MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXISTING RECALL FOR OTHER 2005 DODGE DURANGO'S THAT ALSO SPILL GAS AFTER FILLING. I LOGGED A CASE WITH CHRYSLER AND THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR ANALYSIS AT THE DEALER, AND THEN THEY WILL DETERMINE IF AND HOW MUCH TO COVER; IF ANY. THEY SAID ITS NOT COVERED AND THAT THE SUPPLIER OF THE PART THAT HAS FAILED ON THE OTHERS IS DIFFERENT, THOUGH I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS ON DISCUSSION BOARDS THAT THEY ALSO ARE NOT GETTING COVERED REPAIRS UNDER A RECALL BECAUSE THEIR VEHICLE'S VIN IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I BELIEVE THAT THEY NEED TO ISSUE A NEW RECALL OR EXPAND THIS TO MORE VEHICLES, IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT MORE VEHICLES HAVE THIS SAME SAFETY HAZARD THAT THEY ARE ADMITTING TOO. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I HAVE TO PAY THE DEALER TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE. I WANT CHRYSLER TO REPAIR FOR FREE SINCE THIS IS COVERED UNDER RECALL FOR OTHER SAME VEHICLES. *TR

WHEN PUMPING GAS, SOMETHING IN THE GAS TANK WILL NOT SHUT OFF THE GAS PUMPING INTO THE TANK. IF YOU ARE ATTEMPTING TO FILL THE TANK, A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS SPILLS EVERYWHERE INCLUDING ON THE PERSON PUMPING GAS, ON THE CAR AND ALL OVER THE GROUND AS THE GAS STATION. THIS IS NOT ALLEVIATED FROM CONSTANTLY PUMPING IT BY HAND INSTEAD OF THE AUTOMATIC. OUR DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAVE SEEN SEVERAL OF THESE COMPLAINTS. THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT IS REPLACING THE ENTIRE GAS TANK. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE RISK OF FIRE DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF GAS JUST FROM FILLING TANK. THIS HAS OCCURRED SINCE WE PURCHASED OUR USED VEHICLE. *TW

I PUCHASED A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHEN I FUELED UP THE VEHICLE FUEL SPILLED OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE ON TO THE FLOOR NO MATTER HOW CAREFULLY I FUELED THE VEHICLE. I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND DISCOVERED A FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE SAFETY RECALL FOR THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHEN I CONTACTED DODGE I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL WAS VIN# SPECIFIC AND MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. THE PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL IS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM I AM HAVING WITH MY VEHICLE YET DODGE REFUSE TO MAKE THE REPAIR BECAUSE THEY CLAIM IT IS A WARRANTY ISSUE AND THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD.*CW

WE JUST BOUGHT A 2005 DODGE DURANGO WITH 32000 MILES THAT SPITS GASOLINE OUT OF THE FILLER NECK WHEN THE TANK HAS BEEN FILLED. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES BUT DODGE WON'T RECALL THEM. AND THEY WANT $900 TO REPLACE THE TANK CAN YOU HELP STOP THIS SAFETY PROBLEM?*CW

2005 DODGE DURANGO PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF .... SO WHEN NO ONE IS IN THE SEAT AT THIS POINT I DON'T FEEL THE AIRBAG WILL GO OFF DURING A CRASH .... AS IT MAY BE SENSING A POSSIBLE CHILD'S WEIGHT IN THE SEAT. *TR

STARTING ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO EVERY TIME I FILLED MY GAS TANK A LARGE VOLUME OF GAS WOULD SPLASH OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AS THE TANK APPEARED TO BE APPROACHING FULL. IN ADDITION, THE "GASCAP" LIGHT WOULD CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATE. THERE APPEARS TO BE AN UNBELIEVABLE FIRE HAZARD WITH THIS SITUATION.

ABOUT A WEEK AGO, MY HUSBAND WAS FILLING THE GAS TANK AND ONCE THE TANK WAS FULL, THE FUEL BEGAN TO SPEW OUT OF THE TANK. GAS LEAKED ALONG THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. THEN JUST YESTERDAY, I FAILED TO REMEMBER THAT THE VEHICLE WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE FUEL TANK AND FILLED IT AGAIN. JUST AS I WALKED TOWARD THE VEHICLE, THE GAS METER STOPPED AND THERE WAS A CLICK AND GAS SPEWED ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND ONTO THE GROUND. I CONTACTED DODGE AND WAS TOLD THAT ALTHOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE, MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE PERSON TOOK MY CLAIM AND SOMEONE THAT DID NOT GIVE ME HIS NAME CALLED AND TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF THE CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE AND THEREFORE WOULD NOT INSPECT OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. I AM TAKING THE VEHICLE IN TO BE DIAGNOSED ON 1/13/2010 AT CARMAX, WHICH IS WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. *TR

MY VEHICLE SPITS BACK FUEL EVERYTIME I FILL UP. I BELIEVE IT IS BEING CAUSE BY STUCK INLET CHECK VALUES IN THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBES. THERE IS A RECALL ON MY MODEL VEHICLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL IS RQ08005. BUT I AM BEING TOLD BY THE DEALER THAN MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL, HOWEVER I AM HAVING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO THAT SPEWS GAS VIOLENTLY FROM THE GAS TANK ONCE YOU FILL IT UP. THIS IS A KNOW RECALL FROM DODGE BUT MY VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

I OWN A 2005 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED. RECENTLY, EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK, THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL, BUT IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER, A GREAT DEAL OF GASOLINE ERUPTS FROM THE FILLER TUBE OF THE DURANGO. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME I FILL THE VEHICLE AND WITH DIFFERENT GAS PUMPS. RESEARCH REVEALS THAT CHRYSLER ACTUALLY ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM FOR A LIMITED NUMBER OF VIN'S FOR 2005 DODGE DURANGO'S, BUT SINCE MY DURANGO'S VIN DOES NOT MATCH THE RECALL, CHRYSLER WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS A SAFETY ISSUE, POTENTIALLY REQUIRING ME TO PAY A $700 REPAIR BILL. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, BUT CHRYSLER IS FAILING TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S INITIAL RECALL SHOULD BE BROADENED TO COVER ALL DODGE DURANGOS. *TR
