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

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

I CHECKED FOR RECALLS REGARDING THIS AND FOUND THAT CHRYSLER HAS ONE FOR THIS, WHICH IS H45 OR 09V003000. I NOTIFIED CHRYSLER AT THE NUMBER GIVEN (REF #18975878) AND WAS ADVISED THAT EVENTHOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS NOT IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, I COULD GO TO A CERTIFIED DEALER AND PAY THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND IF THEY FOUND THAT I HAD THE DEFECT DESCRIBED, THEY WOULD COVER THE REPAIR.

WHEN THEY CONTACTED CHRYSLER, HOLDEN DODGE WAS ADVISED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WAS THE 3RD OWNER AND THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE REPAIR. IT SHOULD NOT MATTER IF I WAS THE 50TH OWNER, IT IS THEIR DEFECT!! I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS RECALL WAS FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED IN OCTOBER 2004 AND MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN JANUARY 2005. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THEY CORRECTED THIS MALFUNCTION IN 3 MONTHS SINCE I AM EXPERIENCING THIS DEFECT. I WANT CHRYSLER TO HONOR THE TANK REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY SINCE A CERTIFIED DEALER HAS CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS MY PROBLEM. I OAID THE $80.00 DIAGNOSTIC FEE AS ADVISED AND CHRYSLER DID NOT HOLD TO THEIR PROMISE WHEN I ORIGINALLY CALLED. WAS GIVEN A QUOTE OF $669.00 TO REPLACE HE TANK, WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD. SO RIGHT NOW, I DO NOT FILL THE TANK WITH GAS. PLEASE HELP ME TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED AND HAVE CHRYSLER HONOR THEIR DEFECT!!!! *TR
