AS I BRAKED TO PARK THE DURANGO, THE ENGINE ABRUPTLY STALLED. NOT SURE WHY IT STALLED, BUT I KNOW THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE 2004-2005 DURANGOS WHERE THE ENGINE WOULD STALL DURING SHARP TURNS WHILE BRAKING.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 22, 2015
WHEN I FILL THE GAS TANK, THE PUMP DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AND GASOLINE SPEWS ALL OVER THE PLACE. I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR LESS THAN A WEEK AGO AND HAVE HAD IT HAPPEN EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 10, 2015
WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR A RECALL I WAS INFORMED THAT THE RIGHT MANIFOLD STUDS WERE BROKEN AND THE REPAIR WAS GOING TO COST $765.00. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO MY REGULAR MECHANIC TO DETERMINE IF I WAS BEING INFORMED CORRECTLY. HE ADVISED THAT THE CHRYSLER DEALER SHIP DID NOT REMOVE THE HEAT SHIELD TO VERIFY THAT THIS WAS ACTUALLY THE ISSUE. THE MECHANIC MENTIONED HE COULD DETERMINE THIS BY LOOKING AT THE FASTENERS OF THE HEAT SHIELD. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THIS HAPPENS A LOT TO CHRYSLER PRODUCTS. HE SAID THAT IS WHY THEY DID NOT NEED TO REMOVE THE HEAT SHIELD. WHEN THE STUDS ARE BROKEN IT ALLOW THE EXHAUST SYSTEM TO LEAK. MY QUESTION IS IF THIS IS A REGULAR PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL. I CALLED CHRYSLER TO SEE WHAT THEY WOULD DO ABOUT PAYING FOR A REPAIR FOR A CONSTANT ISSUE. THEY SAID THERE HAS NOT BEEN MANY PROBLEMS OF THIS NATURE. CAN THIS BE INVESTIGATED BY HAVING CHRYSLER MAIL OUT S SURVEY TO ACTUALLY DETERMINE IF THIS IS A MATERIAL DEFECT IN THEIR STUDS?

THIS DURANGO HAD SPEWED GAS DURING FILL UP EVER SINCE PURCHASED 11/2006, SO I JUST TRIED TO BE CAREFUL WHEN FILLING. APRIL 2012, I HAD SOME RUST FIXED AROUND THE REAR WHEEL AREA ON THE GAS TANK SIDE. DID NOT REALLY THINK TOO MUCH ABOUT IT AT THE TIME. 1/29/14 I HAD AN INLET CHECK VALVE REPLACED AT THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO NOTIFICATION FROM CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID THIS COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. THOUGHT THEN THAT THIS DEFECT IS PROBABLY WHAT CAUSED MY RUST ISSUE BUT I HAD HAD THAT FIXED SO DID NOT THINK ANYTHING ABOUT IT....UNTIL IT STARTED TO RUST AGAIN IN THE SAME AREA. THIS IS A WITHOUT A DOUBT CAUSED BY THE FAULTY INLET CHECK VALVE. I BELIEVE CHRYSLER INTENTIONALLY DID NOT NOTIFY THEIR CLIENTS UNTIL THE 100,000 MILE RUST WARRANTY WAS UP. THEY WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THE RESULTING DAMAGE FROM THE FAULTY INLET CHECK VALVE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE POWER TRAIN ERRONEOUSLY SWITCHED TO THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE LOW POSITION AND THE TRACTION CONTROL AND 4 WHEEL DRIVE SENSOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. WHILE STUCK IN THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE POSITION, THE VEHICLE BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE NORMALLY. WHEN REFUELING THE VEHICLE, FUEL WOULD SPEW OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

WHEN I FILL UP MY GAS TANK, THE GAS DOES NOT STOP FLOWING WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. THE INDICATOR DOES NOT WORK, THEREFORE GAS SPILLS OUT ONTO THE GROUND EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK.

I AM CONSTANTLY HAVING TO WATCH AS I FILL MY TANK ON THIS CAR, BECAUSE THEIR IS NO WAY OF KNOWING WHEN THE GAS WILL SPILL OUT ONTO MY CAR. THE CONSTANT OVERFLOW HAS EFFECTED THE PAINT NEAR THE GAS TANK AS WELL AS RUN UNDER THE BODY OF THIS CAR. THIS IS AN ISSUE WHICH NO ONE WANTS TO ADDRESS BUT I HOPE SOON IT WILL BE RESOLVED. IT IS A HAZARD TO THE OWNER AND THOSE WHO ARE NEAR US WHEN WE ATTEMPT TO FILL OUR CAR. *TR
Structure, Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 19, 2015
THIS VEHICLE HAD A FUEL OVERFLOW PROBLEM. CHRYSLER HAS A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON FIXING THIS. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE GAS THAT WAS CONTINUOUSLY OVERFLOWING ON FILL-UP HAS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO RUST UNDER THE GAS TANK. CHRYSLER IS SAYING THIS IS NOT COVERED. ALSO ON THE LIFT GATE UNDER THE SILVER PIECE ABOVE THE HANDLE THERE IS RUST FORMING FROM DRIPPING ON EACH SIDE OF THIS SILVER PIECE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT, BUT CHRYSLER IS SAYING NONE OF THIS IS COVERED. *TR

EVERYTIME I FILL UP OR COME CLOSE TO FILLING UP THE GAS WILL COME SHOOTING OUT OF THE TANK. IT GETS ALL OVER ME, THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. IT CAN SHOOT AS FAR AS 4 OR 5 FEET AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. I HAVE STOPPED PUTTING MORE THAN 1/2 A TANK AT A TIME IN IT BUT IT IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE TO HAVE TO STOP FOR GAS SO MUCH. *TR

THIS IS DEFINITELY A PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD. I BOUGHT MY USED DODGE DURANGO LAST OCTOBER 2014. EVERY TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK UP,THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF FROM A FULL TANK OF GAS ON MY VEHICLE, THEN THE GAS COMES GUSHING BACK OUT OF THE FUEL NECK OF THE DURANGO'S GAS TANK. THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS ON PREVIOUS YEARS BUT NONE ON 2006. THERE ARE MULTIPLE PEOPLE FILING COMPLAINTS BUT NO RECALLS? THIS CAUSES DAMAGE TO THE AUTOMOBILE PAINT, CLOTHES, PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT. HOWEVER, MOST CONCERNING IS THE SAFETY HAZARD OF A POTENTIAL FIRE OR EXPLOSION FROM THE OVERFLOWED GAS AND FUMES HAPPENING AROUND MULTIPLE CARS, PEOPLE AND GAS PUMPS AT GAS STATIONS WHEN 2006 DODGE DURANGO OWNERS FILL UP THEIR VEHICLES. THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM CAUSED BY ANY OWNER. THIS IS A MECHANICAL DEFECT IN THE DODGE DURANGO FILLER TUBE VALVE IN THE GAS TANKS. PLEASE HELP TO GET THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED BY THE DODGE COMPANY. *TR

THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS ON PREVIOUS YEARS BUT NONE ON 2006. DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. THERE ARE MULTIPLE PEOPLE FILING COMPLAINTS BUT NO RECALLS? THIS CAUSES DAMAGE TO PAINT, CLOTHES, PEOPLE STANDING IN THE WAY WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE IT HAPPENS. DOES IT TAKE AN ACTUAL INJURY OR FIRE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE? ITS RIDICULOUS AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!! I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT AND IT IS CLEARLY A DEFECT FROM THE FACTORY. HOPEFULLY SOMETHING IS DONE SO DODGE OWNERS CAN CONTINUE TO LOVE THE CARS THEY BOUGHT. *TR

AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE IN 2009, IT BEGAN SHUTTING OFF WHEN I DECELERATED FOR STOPS OR TURNS. NO ENGINE LIGHT WARNING. IN 2009, TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES. NO HELP. ISSUES HAVE CONTINUED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP IN 2010 3-4 TIMES FOR SAME ISSUE. SEEMS TO SHUT OFF MORE IN WINTER THAN SUMMER BUT IS VERY RANDOM. IN 2011, MORE EXPLORATORY WORK WAS COMPLETED AT DEALERSHIP. IS THERE A LEMON LAW? IN 2012, I HAD SOMEONE ELSE TINKER ON IT. STILL NO ASSISTANCE. THE ISSUES ARE LESS ANNOYING NOW AND BECOMING DANGEROUS AS IT NOW SHUTS OFF AT ANY TIME, AT ANY SPEED, IN ANY WEATHER. I'VE TRIED NEW BRAKES, COUPLE OF NEW BATTERIES, NEW COMPUTER CHIP, COMPLETE VISUAL OVERALL WITH COMPUTER ASSISTANCE AT DEALERSHIP. ONCE WHEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, O'REILY'S COMPUTER SAID THAT THE SENSOR BOX HAD MOISTURE IN IT. DEALERSHIP FOUND NO SUCH EVIDENCE. ALL MAINTENANCE LIKE OIL CHANGES ARE UP-TO-DATE. IN 2013 IN ADDITION TO THE SHUTTING OFF, THERE IS A BUMPING WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED AND NO ONE CAN CONTRIBUTE THAT ISSUE TO ANYTHING EITHER! NO HELP. SCARED TO DRIVE BUT NO $$ GET A NEW ONE. I FEEL ABANDONED WITH A LEMON. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE TANK FILLER HAD MALFUNCTIONED AND THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

UPON FIRST PURCHASING AT A DEALERSHIP THE PURCHASE WAS AS A USED VEHICLE, SO NO WARRANTY IS OR WAS IN PLACE. A FEW MONTHS LATER WHEN FILLING THE TANK AT A GAS STATION THE FIRST INCIDENT OF PROPULSION OF GASOLINE FORCING OUT OF THE TANK, FIRST HAPPENED. THEN A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE THE MOTOR WOULD NOT START. USING AN OBD TO CHECK CODES THERE WAS NO ERROR CODES BUT STILL ENDED UP CLEARING IT ANYWAYS WHICH ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO START (WHICH MEANS ITS THE COMPUTER). NOW, THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW IS DOWN AND WILL NOT GO BACK UP, CHECKED THE MOTOR AND THE MOTOR FOR THE WINDOW IS FINE, BUT CHECKING THE SWITCH IT WOULD ONLY UNLOCK DOOR, NOT ALLOW LOCK AND ABSOLUTELY NO WINDOW CONTROL AT ALL FROM EITHER THE PASSENGER DOOR SWITCH OR DRIVER SIDE SWITCH. WHEN LOOKING AT THE SWITCHES TURNS OUT THAT THE CIRCUIT BOARDS ARE NOT SOLDERED. THE ONLY WAY TO GET ANY OF THE PROBLEMS FIXED FOR ANYONE NOW WOULD BE FOR A RECALL, BECAUSE THE YEAR BEING 2014 NO WARRANTY WILL COVER ANY PROBLEMS THAT I OR ANYONE ELSE IS FACING! *TR

1996 DODGE DURANGO. I HAVE 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED 5.7 LITER HEMI - I BOUGHT USED CAR SALESMAN IT IN DECEMBER 2012. IN FEBRUARY OF 214 WE STARTED HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING AFTER READING SEVERAL DIFFERENT INTERNET FORUMS I DISCOVERED THE ENGINE FAILURE WITH MY DODGE DURANGO WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. LIKE OTHERS I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO OUR MECHANIC'S BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD COME ON. WE ALWAYS GOT OIL CHANGES AND REGULAR MAINTENANCE DONE AT OUR MECHANIC'S BECAUSE WE THOUGHT THEY WOULD KNOW THE CAR BEST AND BE ABLE TO INFORM US OF ANY IMPORTANT RECALLS OR POSSIBLE PROBLEMS. I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE PROBLEM, HE IN TURNED TOLD ME THAT HE KNEW ABOUT THE DODGE DURANGO ENGINE FAILURE PROBLEM. HE ALSO SAID DODGE KNOWS ABOUT IT, BUT THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID THAT SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED ON THE ROAD BECAUSE THE ENGINE TURNS OFF AT ANY TIME. IT IS A SAME THAT DODGE IS PULLING THE SAME THING AS GENERAL MOTORS HAS DONE. PLEAASE LETS FIX THIS BEFORE SOMEONE DOES GET KILLED. SO I AM HERE WITH MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO PARKED IN MY DRIVE JUST WAITING FOR RECALL. IT IS GETTING CLOSER BECAUSE YESTERDAY THEY JUST RECALLED THE 2005,2006,2007 JEEP BECAUSE CHRYSLER SAID ON TUESDAY THAT IT WAS RECALLING AN UNDISCLOSED NUMBER OF OLDER JEEP S.U.V.S TO CORRECT AN IGNITION-RELATED STALLING PROBLEM SIMILAR TO THE DEADLY FLAW THAT HAS CONSUMED GENERAL MOTORS THIS YEAR. HOW ALSO OWNS DODGE SO I KNOW THEY KNOW ABOUT THE DODGES PROBLEMS. AT THIS POINT MY SENATOR RICHARD BLUMENTHAL OFFICE CAN NOT DO A THING, BECAUSE I HAVE NOT BEEN HURT OR KILLED AS OF YET.
