2006 Dodge Durango complaints

WHEN FILLING GAS TANK AFTER NOZZLE CLICKS OFF WITHIN SECOND A GUSH OF FUEL SHOOTS OUT OF TANK. WE ARE ONLY OWNER OF VEHICLE AND THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR YEARS. WE HAD FUEL TANK REPLACED ONCE AND IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AND IS GETTING REALLY BAD AGAIN. TODAY SO MUCH FUEL SHOT OUT THAT IF SOMEONE WAS STANDING THERE IT WOULD OF SOAKED THEM. IT WAS SO OBVIOUS AND SO MUCH THAT THE OTHER PEOPLE AT THE STATION SAW IT AND WERE IN DISBELIEF. THIS IS GETTING TO BE REAL DANGEROUS. *TR

WHILE FILLING UP MY VEHICLE WITH FUEL, THE VEHICLE TOPPED OFF AND SHUT OFF THE FUEL NOZZLE, THEN FUEL CAME RUSHING OUT OF THE VEHICLE'S FILLER TUBE ONTO THE VEHICLE, MY HAND AND LEG, AND THE GROUND. THIS IS AN ONGOING MISHAP WITH THIS VEHICLE AND OTHER 2006 DURANGO'S AS INDICATED BY REVIEWING HISTORICAL EVENTS ON THIS WEBSITE. IT SHOULD NOT TAKE A MAJOR MISHAP OR FIRE TO GET THE APPROPRIATE ATTENTION THIS DESERVES,. CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS AN ISSUE, HOWEVER THE 2005 DURANGO WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. *TR

THE VEHICLE SPEWS GAS ONCE FUELING BEGINS. IT OVERFLOWS THE GAS TANKS AND A LOT OF FUEL SPILLS ON THE GROUND. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH EVERY REFUEL OF THE VEHICLE WHICH BEGAN IN OCTOBER 2010. *TT

EACH AND EVERY TIME I'VE LET THE GAS PUMP AUTO-FILL THE TANK, GAS COMES SPURTING BACK OUT. I NO LONGER FILL UP THE TANK COMPLETELY AND HAVE TO MANUALLY STOP THE GAS PUMP, IN A SENSE, GUESSING AS TO WHEN THE TANK IS ALMOST FULL. *TR

WHILE REFUELING MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS BETWEEN PENSACOLA FLORIDA AND SAN ANTONIO TEXAS, FUEL COMES SPEWING OUT OF THE REFUEL NOZZLE ONCE THE PUMP CUTS OFF AND THE TANK IS FULL THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 60 TIMES SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE, AND AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS ACROSS AMERICA. MY WIFE HAS REUINED A PAIR OF SHOES AND A DRESS BECAUSE FUEL CAME SPEWING OUT AND GOT ALL OVER HER, THE TRUCK AND THE GROUND. THIS IS A SAFETY AND FIRE HAZARD. THE 2005 DURANGO WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT THE 2006 IS BEING IGNORED. YOU CAN SEE A VIDEO OF THIS HAPPENING ON YOUTUBE BY LOOKING FOR 2006 DURANGO FUELING PROBLEMS. CHRYSLER HAS CONTACTED ME CONCERNING TH EPROBLEM, BUT WANT ME TO PAY FOR THE DIAGONOSIS, AND IF PARTS ARE FOUND DEFECTIVE, THEY WILL PAY FOR THE REPAIR. I AM A RETIRED MILITARY WAR VETERAN AND DISABLED VETERAN, I CANNOT AFFORD $400+ TO DIAGNOS A PROBLEM THEY MAY NOT COVER REPAIRS ON I HAVE GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM AND ALSO BELONG TO TWO DODGE DURANGO WEB GROUPS AND MULTIPLE OWNERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS BEFORE A MISHAP OCCURS. IN THE MEANTIME, I ONLY PUT 19 GALLONS IN MY DURANGO AND STOP FUELING. EVEN WHEN I DO THIS, FUEL COMES BACK UP TH ETUBE, BUT NOT ALL THE WAY OUT. *TR

WHILE REFUELING MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED AT THE AAFES GAS STATION ON RANDOLPH AFB, FUEL CAME SPEWING OUT OF THE REFUEL NOZZLE ONCE THE PUMP CUT OFF AND THE TANK WAS FULL THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 60 TIMES SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE, AND AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS ACROSS AMERICA. THE GAS STATION ATTENDANT WAS VERY ANGRY WITH ME SAYING THAT I OVERFILLED THE TANK UNTIL I EXPLAINED TO HIM WHAT IS GOING ON WITHTHE VEHICLE. HE GOT A MOP HAZMAT KIT AND CLEANED UP THE MESS BEFORE I LEFT. THIS IS A SAFETY AND FIRE HAZARD. THE 2005 DURANGO WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT THE 2006 IS BEING IGNORED. YOU CAN SEE A VIDEO OF THIS HAPPENING ON YOUTUBE BY LOOKING FOR 2006 DURANGO FUELING PROBLEMS. THERE ARE TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE FOR NOTHING TO BE ACCOMPLISHED FOR US OWNERS OF THE 2006 DURANGO. WHAT WILL IT TAKE, A FIRE AND SOMEONE INJURED OR KILLED TO GET THE MESSAGE?

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT HAS A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I FILL UP, THE GAS PRESSURE BUILDS UP IN THE TANK AND SPURTS OUT ALL OVER. I CAN ACTUALLY HEAR IT START GURGLING IN THE TANK. I HAVE BEEN COVERED WITH GASOLINE ON A SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE FIRST FEW TIMES, I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS SOMETHING I HAD DONE, OR THE GAS PUMP WHERE I WAS FILLING. BUT I RECENTLY WENT ON 2 TRIPS FROM FL TO NY AND BACK AND IT HAPPENED ALMOST EVERY FILL UP ON BOTH TRIPS WITHIN A MONTH, AS WELL AS FILL UPS IN BETWEEN AND AS I STATED, SOME PRIOR TO. THIS CREATED SEVERAL HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS. GASOLINE ON MY PERSON AND CLOTHING, INHALATION OF THE FUMES CAUSING ILLNESS, GASOLINE ON MY VEHICLE, GASOLINE ON THE PAVEMENT AT THE GAS PUMPS. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL POSTS ONLINE ABOUT MY EXACT PROBLEM SINCE IT HAPPENED. ONE PERSON IS PERSONALLY DOCUMENTING CASES. HE HAS OVER 120 + CASES HE IS AWARE OF, NOT INCLUDING MINE, THIS YEAR ALONE. THIS IS THE FIRST STEP I HAVE TAKEN AT THIS POINT, AS I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE IF IT IS HAPPENING WITH SUCH FREQUENCY. THESE ARE THE DOCUMENTED CASES JUST THROUGH ONE PERSON ONLINE, WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER CASES NOT DOCUMENTED. NOT TO MENTION PEOPLE WHO DON'T FILL THEIR TANKS ALL THE WAY WHO MAY HAVE THE ISSUE AND DO NOT EVEN KNOW IT. DOES SOMEBODY HAVE TO BE BURNED OR OTHERWISE INJURED, OVERCOME BY THE FUMES FIRST? HOW MANY INSTANCES MUST OCCUR BEFORE IT BECOMES A TRUE SAFETY CONCERN? DOES MY CHILD NEED TO FILL THE TANK AND MAYBE SWALLOW THE

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO AND RECENTLY IT HAS STARTED DYING WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT ILLUMINATES AND THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. STEERING AND BRAKING BECOME VERY DIFFICULT AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. MY MECHANIC USED A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL AND SAID IT SHOWED A CODE FOR THE CAM SHAFT SENSOR, AND IT WAS REPLACED. HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER. THE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL SHOWED A CODE FOR THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR, AND IT WAS REPLACED. IT IS STILL HAPPENING. VEHICLE NEVER FAILS TO START AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE STOPPED BUT DUE TO THE DIFFICULTY IN STEERING AND BRAKING WHEN IT STALLS, I HAVE NEARLY HAD ACCIDENTS. PLEASE HELP! *TT

EVERY TIME I REFUEL MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO (LIMITED), AT LEAST HALF A GALLON OF GASOLINE SPEWS BACK FROM THE FILL NOZZLE AND ONTO THE SIDE OF THE SUV AND GROUND (AND SOMETIMES MYSELF OR MY WIFE).

I JUST PURCHASED A USED 2006 DODGE DURANGO. EVERYTIME I FILL IT UP WITH GASOLINE, WHEN IT GETS FULL, GASOLINE OVERFLOWS FROM THE FILLER TUBE AND GETS ON THE GROUND AND ME. I HAVE READ ON DODGE FORUMS THAT THIS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG DURANGO OWNERS AND I FEEL IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TT

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED WITH THE 5.7L MOTOR. EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS IT SPEWS OUT EXCESS GASOLINE. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GAS STATION. THE VEHICLE HAS 72,500 MILES ON IT AND THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED FOR THE LAST 12,000 MILES. I HAVE CONTACTED VARIOUS DEALERS AND I GO THRU THE SAME ROUTINE: VIN REFERENCE, THEN THEY PROCEED TO TELL ME IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, AND THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE ISSUE, AND TO CONTACT DODGE CORPORATE FOR ASSISTANCE. WHEN I CONTACT CORPORATE I FOLLOW THE STEPS AND THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THEY CANNOT ASSIST ME AT THAT TIME. I CAN NEVER TALK TO A REAL PERSON. I HAVE A FAMILY AND I DO NOT WANT A FIRE LEADING TO MY FAMILIES ENDANGERMENT. *TR

WE HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO AND WE HAVE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH IT. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STOPPED WORKING ALONG WITH THE RADIO, A/C, WIPERS, WINDOWS AND EVERYTHING IN THE INTERIOR. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS FIXED DURING A RECALL. WE CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD US THAT IT WAS FIXED ONCE FOR THE RECALL AND THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT AGAIN.

MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE FUEL TANK ONE YEAR AGO. EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK, AFTER THE NOZZLE AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, GAS SPEWS BACK OUT OF THE CAR ONTO ME AND THE EXTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. MAY 2011 A SERVICE SHOP FOUND THAT A SOLENOID HAD FAILED AND REPLACED IT. THEY ALSO FOUND THAT THE SURGE CANISTER WAS HOLDING GASOLINE, AS IT LIKELY IS FILLED WHEN THE TANK SPEWS GAS BACK OUT. REPLACING THE SOLENOID DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM, AND THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN INFORMED ME THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL REPORTS OF THIS OCCURRING WITH OTHER DODGE DURANGOS, BUT THAT MY YEAR VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN RECALLED. ONLY 2005 DURANGOS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM. I REPORTED THIS TO CHRYSLER ON MAY 24, AND THE CASE MANAGER CONTACTED ME ON MAY 31 TO REPORT THAT CHRYSLER WAS CHOOSING NOT TO ASSIST IN REPLACING THE FUEL TANK, AND AT THIS TIME HAS NOT RECALLED FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

WHEN FUELING MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO; THE PUMP WILL CLICK OFF AUTOMATICALLY THEN GAS WILL OVERFLOW FROM THE TANK. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AND HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM SINCE DAY 1 OF OWNERSHIP. DODGE RECALLED THE 2005 MODEL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I CONTACTED DODGE; AND TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. $1043 PLUS TAX FOR PARTS AND LABOR TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK REPLACED. WHY DID THEY RECALL THE 2005 BUT NOT THE 2006 FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD !!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELP 2006 OWNERS GET THIS RESOLVED. *TR

WHEN FUELING, IF ALLOWED TO FILL UP, AT THE POINT OF FULL/PUMP CUT OFF, GASOLINE WILL SPRAY OUT OF THE FILL TUBE AROUND THE NOZZLE AND CREATE A LARGE PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. THIS WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST, BUT HAS SINCE BECOME AN EVERY TIME OCCURRENCE. NOT ONLY AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD, THIS POSES SERIOUS RISKS TO THE PASSENGERS (ESP. CHILDREN)

GAS OVER FLOWING AT THE FUEL PUMP WHEN FILLING UP. THE PUMP WOULDN'T AUTOMATICALLY STOP TILL AFTER IT WAS OVER FLOWING. GAS SPILLED ON THE PAINT AND HANDS, CLOTHS IF YOUR STANDING THERE AND ON THE GROUND CAUSE A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. TOOK TO DEALER SAID IT WAS THE GAS TANK. THEY REPLACED IT AND NO MORE PROBLEMS.

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE AUTOMATIC FUEL SHUT-OFF VALVE, LOCATED INSIDE THE FUEL TANK, DOES NOT WORK. THIS ALLOWS FOR FUEL TO SPLASH OUT OF THE TANK EACH TIME YOU FILL THE TANK. FROM THE RESEARCH THAT I'VE DONE, THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM FOR CHRYSLER PRODUCTS, WHICH RESULTED IN THE RECALL OF SEVERAL THOUSAND 2005 MODEL YEAR DODGE DURANGOS. THE PROBLEM PERSISTS IN MODEL YEARS 2006 AND 2007 FOR DODGE DURANGOS, CHRSYLER ASPENS, JEEP WRANGLERS AND JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AS THE FUEL SPLASH UNEXPECTEDLY. *TR

THE FUEL LINE CHECK VALVE STICKS ALLOWING GASOLINE TO SPIT BACK OUT WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. THIS IS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO, BUT THE PROBLEM IS IDENTICAL TO THE 2005 MODEL RECALL ON THE SAME ISSUE, AND WHICH APPEARS WELL DOCUMENTED ELSEWHERE, INCLUDING THIS WEBSITE WHICH SHOWS THE SAME ISSUE. HTTP://WWW.SAFETYRESEARCH.NET/2011/03/23/FUEL-SPIT-BACK-CONTINUES-TO-PLAGUE-CHRYSLER-VEHICLES/ MY LOCAL DEALER QUOTED ME $1,200 TO REPLACE THE VALVE, AND CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE SAID THAT THEY "MIGHT' PAY A GOODWILL PAYMENT TO REIMBURSE ME IF I GOT IT FIXED. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO ESPECIALLY IF IT IS RECALLED LIKE IT SHOULD BE IF THE 2005 MODEL WAS FOR THE SAME REASON. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE LAST 5 TIMES I'VE FILLED IT UP, THE GAS HAS OVERFLOWED EVEN THOUGH THE AUTO SHUT-OFF CLICKED ON THE PUMP HANDLE. THE FIRST TIME I THOUGHT IT MUST BE THE PUMP, BUT NOW THAT IT'S HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES, I'M AM VERY WORRIED AND WOULD LIKE THIS FIXED BY DODGE. MY VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST BUT IS DOING THE SAME AS THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED.

WHEN I REFUEL MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO AFTER THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF THERE IS A BURST OF FUEL THAT WILL FLOW OUT OF MY GAS TANK AND LEAK ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR. THIS CAN BE EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS TO MYSELF AND THE CHILDREN IN THE CAR IF A SPARK IS PRESENT. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS EVERYTIME I REFUEL MY VEHICLE ALL THE WAY AND HAS NOW CAUSE THE PAINT TO ALSO TO START COMING OFF UNDER THE GAS TANK. *TR

AT ABOUT 58,000 MILES MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO BEGAN TO OVERFLOW OR SPIT BACK A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL WHEN TOPPING OFF THE TANK. THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IS ABOUT 1/2 TO 1 GALLON IN SIZE AND SPITS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK IN A FLOWING SPRAY. IT DOES THIS EVERY TIME I FILL IT TILL THE PUMP AUTO SHUTS OFF. *TR
