After filling gas tank to completion and hearing the auto stop on the fuel pump engage I saw about a liter of fuel spill out from the gas tank. Fuel was all over the vehicle and ground.
Power train, Electrical system, Jun 30, 2021
I have had problems with the 4 wheel/ all wheel drive engaging on it's own. The problem exists even when the vehicle is turned off when using the key fob to lock the vehicle. I have on a two occasions have the transmission shift into four wheel low while doing over 55 mph which made the vehicle slow down skidding drastically and made the engine hit high RPMs. After checking online for some Information I've found that it's a problem with many owners of 2004, 2005 and 2006 Durango and Dakota owners and found that the body control module, 4 wheel module and shift actuator was part of the faults. They had disconnected the wire harness to the shift actuator to remedy the chance of having an accident. I have done the same and looked into replacing faulty parts but also found that the fix was also temporary many owners reported the same problem just days after repairs. Please look Into this, it's dangerous and it's well known that this problem exists with many owners why has Mopar not addressed it. It will kill someone.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jun 29, 2021
I cant put more then 10 dollars in my tank because the nosle keeps clicking and gas pours out all over me and the ground. There was a recall for this, but it is no longer happening. I just bought this car used and now my mechanic cant even find a gas tank to replace it. My legs have felt like they where on fire and became red from the gas pouring out on me, my husband has had to hose me down outside in my backyard from having fuel all over my legs. This is very dangerous, nerve racking and a total safety hazard.

No check engine lite on at all the engine just stalls and I can restart the engine almost all the time right away the repair facility has no idea what is going on.

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, VEHICLE JUST THREW ITSELF INTO 4LO 4WD AND STARTED GRINDING. I HAD TO SLAM THE BRAKES TO SAVE THE TRUCK AND COME TO A QUICK STOP FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS. HAD TO LIMP IT HOME AT 15 MPH. BEFORE LIMPING IT HOME, IT DECIDED TO THROW ITSELF INTO NEUTRAL AND I COULDN'T GET ANY MOTION. AFTER BEING AT A COMPLETE STOP FOR A WHILE, THE VEHICLE WENT BACK INTO ONE OF IT'S 3 MODES (I DON'T KNOW WHICH), AWD, 4HI OR 4LO. I LIMPED IT HOME AND PARKED IT. DODGE DEALER SAYS I NEED A NEW TRANSFER CASE AND ONLINE INFORMATION FROM OTHER USERS SHOWS THIS AS A "KNOWN ISSUE" WITH NO REAL RESOLUTION. I HAVE READ THAT OTHER FOLKS HAVE REPLACED THEIR TRANSFER CASE AND STILL HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO HAVE HAPPENED TO ME AFTER ALL THESE YEARS OF PEOPLE REPORTING THIS ISSUE IN THE PAST. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED AND I'M NOT HAPPY. I HAVE STAYED ON TOP OF ALL REPAIRS ON THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE HAD NO ISSUES. THIS WAS A SHOCK. WHERE IS THE RECALL FOR THIS?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HIS BATTERY HAD DIED UPON START OF HIS VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS ABLE TO RECHARGE THE BATTERY. MONTHS LATER, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SAME FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE JUMP STARTED AND TAKEN BACK TO HIS INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO CHARGED THE BATTERY AGAIN. DUE TO THE INEFFECTIVENESS OF THE CHARGE, THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE BATTERY. UPON RESEARCH, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE CHANGE OVER MOTOR LINKED TO THE FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE FEATURE COULD ENGAGE INDEPENDENTLY WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF. THE CONTACT THEN LINKED HIS FAILURE OF HIS VEHICLE DUE TO THE FACT THAT HE COULD HEAR AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE SVC 4WD SERVICE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY UPON START OF THE VEHICLE. GILL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1100 S MADERA AVE, MADERA, CA 93637) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED HIM THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE.

THE GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOW FROM THE FUEL FILLER PIPE AND CAP AND NOT SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. THIS HAPPENS WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE STATIONARY, WITH THE CAR OFF AT GAS STATIONS. IT HAPPENS VERY CONSISTENTLY, REGARDLESS OF THE FILL RATE OF THE GAS, THE STYLE OF GASOLINE DISPENSER, OR LOCATION OF THE GAS STATION. THE GASOLINE WILL CONTINUE TO SPILL OUT FROM THE FUEL NECK UNTIL SOMEONE MANUALLY INTERVENES AND TURNS OFF THE NOZZLE.

I WENT ON THE DODGE WEBSITE AND IT SEEMS THAT EVERYONE THAT OWNS THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THEM. SO ITS NOT JUST A RANDOM THING THAT HAPPENED. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND IT COULD END UP COSTING SOMEONE'S LIFE. RIGHT AFTER IT HAPPENED IT MADE A LOUD NOISE THEN WENT BACK TO 2WHEEL DRIVE. THEN THE LIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE FOR THE 4WHEEL HI AND LOW WAS GOING HAYWIRE. THEN LIKE NOTHING IT TURNED OFF.AND THE CAR DROVE GREAT. BUT AS I WENT FURTHER DOWN THE HIGHWAY IT DID IT AGAIN ABOUT 3 MORE TIME SO I PARKED IT. I.WAITED A COUPLE HOURS WENT TO OPEN THE DOOR AND THE CAR STARTED MAKING NOISES AS IF IT WAS ENGAGING AD DISENGAGING THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE. I CALLED THE DODGE DEALER AND THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO DO.
