AT THE CONCLUSION OF FILLING MY VEHICLE WITH GASOLINE FOLLOWING THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF, APPROXIMATELY 8 OUNCES OF GASOLINE SPEWS FROM THE FILL NOZZLE ONTO THE GROUND. THIS BEGAN OCCURRING 9 MONTHS AGO. PRIOR TO THAT TIME IT NEVER OCCURRED. I HAVE HAVE DRIVEN THE VEHICLE SINCE IT WAS NEW. THIS IS NOT IN INTERMITTENT OCCURRENCE. ONCE IT BEGAN EXHIBITING THIS BEHAVIOR, IT DOES IT CONSISTENTLY EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED.

THERE IS NO PARTICULAR EVENT LEADING UP TO THE FOLLOWING FAILURE--IT HAPPENED AND THEN NEVER STOPPED HAPPENING. EVERY TIME MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO IS REFUELED, THE GASOLINE BACKWASHES OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE. A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FUEL GUSHES OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE REQUIRING THAT I DODGE THE FOUNTAIN OF FUEL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. MY RESEARCH REVEALED THAT A RECALL HAD BEEN PLACED ON THIS MODEL FOR THE SAME SYMPTOMS, BUT DODGE CLAIMS THAT MY VIN ISN'T WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THEY SUGGESTED I TAKE IT TO A LOCAL DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC, WHICH COST $70. THE DIAGNOSIS IS THAT THE CHARCOAL EVAP CANISTER IS FILLED WITH "LIQUID" CAUSED BY OVERFILLING THE TANK AND DODGE REFUSES TO COVER THE REPAIR. I CONTEND THAT THE EVAP ISSUE IS CAUSED BY THE VERY PROBLEM OF THE FUEL BACKWASH. MY VISIT TO DODGEFORUM.COM REVEALED THAT THE FUEL OVERFLOW IS A COMMON PROBLEM. GIVEN THE EXISTING RECALL, IT'S OBVIOUS THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT DODGE SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO CORRECT. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO VIN#[XXX] BUILT 09/04 THAT WHEN I FILL UP THE GAS TANK GASOLINE SPITS BACK BEFORE THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. THERE IS A CHRYSLER RECALL (E01 AND H45) AND MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THE RECALL DATES. CHRYSLER CONTINUES TO DENY THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL BUT HAS OFFERED A "GOOD WILL REPLACEMENT" WHICH COSTS ME $100 OUT OF MY POCKET. MY CHRYSLER CASE/REFERENCE # IS [XXX] . THE LOCAL DEALER VERIFIED THAT THE DEFECT WITH THE TANK WAS THE SAME AS THE RECALL. THE NHTSA ACTION # IS RQ08005. THERE IS A HIGH POTENTIAL OF FIRE, PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND DEATH OR INJURY TO WHO EVER IS NEAR THE VEHICLE WHILE FUELING.

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK ON MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE GAS DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF CAUSING AN OVERFLOW EVERY TIME. THIS IS THE EXACT THING THAT IS DESCRIBED IN A RECALL FOR '05 DURANGOS HOWEVER MINE DOES NOT HAVE A QUALIFYING VIN #. MY VEHICLE HAS 44,000 MILES ON IT. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER, DUE TO NOT BEING COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR THE RECALL THEY SAID IT WAS MY FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY TO GET THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED BY THE DEALERSHIP. CHRYSLER STATED ONLY AFTER THAT WAS DONE THEY WOULD LOOK INTO IF FURTHER BUT COULD NOT ASSURE ME THEY WOULD COVER ANY OF THE REPAIR BILL. I HAVE NOT HAD THIS DONE AS I CANNOT AFFORD THE UP FRONT EXPENSE. FOR THE MEANWHILE I DO NOT FILL MY TANK ALL THE WAY. *TR

HE WAS ABLE TO LOCATE A RECALL CAMPAIGN FOR HIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL DESCRIBING THE SAME FAILURE HE WAS EXPERIENCING (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 09V003000: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY) AND CONTACTED HIS DEALER.
