Fuel system, Gasoline, Feb 6, 2010
JUST PURCHASED USED 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED UPON FILLING THE FUEL TANK FOR THE FIRST TIME FUEL PUMP SHUT OFF AFTER ABOUT 4 GALLONS AND GASOLINE SPEWED FROM TANK AND FILLER NECK, CONTINUED TO DO THE SAME THING UNLESS I FILLED THE TANK VERY SLOWLY. THIS SEEMS TO BE PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE DURANGO AND IS POTENTIALLY A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD NOT ONLY TO THE PEOPLE FILLING THE VEHICLE BUT TO OTHERS AROUND, NOT TO MENTION POTENTIAL DAMAGE TO VEHICLE FINISH. *CN
Fuel system, Gasoline, Feb 6, 2010
EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK, IT SPEWS GAS OUT AT ME INSTEAD OF SHUTTING OFF THE PUMP. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I HOLD THE PUMP OR PUT THE STOPPER THING (NOT SURE THE CORRECT NAME) ON, UNTIL I PHYSICALLY LET GO OF THE HANDLE IT CONTINUES TO OVERFLOW. THE LAST FILL UP IT ACTUALLY WENT ALL OVER ME!! I CALLED CHRYSLER AND HAVE A REFERENCE # IF NEEDED. I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED, BUT I HAVE OWNED IT FOR LESS THAN 1 YEAR. IT HAS 70000 MILES. I HAVE CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL, BUT NONE EXIST YET. HOWEVER, THERE IS A RECALL ON THE 2005 DURANGO. I FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND I WOULD HATE TO SEE SOMEONE INJURED--MYSELF, MY CHILDREN, SOMEONE ELSE WHO PULLS UP AT THE GAS STATION AFTER I HAVE LEFT AND DROPS A CIGARETTE OR SOMETHING CAUSING AN EXPLOSION, ETC.....*CN

PURCHASED 2006 DODGE DURANGO NEW IN OCTOBER 2006. SOMETIME IN 2009 THIS BEGAN: WHEN YOU REFUEL THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK VALVE IN THE FUEL TANK DOES NOT CLOSE AT THE END OF REFUELING AND FUEL SPRAYS OUT FROM THE VEHICLE FILLER NECK. THIS OCCURS NEARLY EVERY TIME I REFUEL. CONSEQUENCES: FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE CAN RESULT IN A FIRE. I CONTACTED DODGE TO INFORM THEM OF THIS. I TOOK THE DURANGO TO MY DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT I HAVE TO ORDER A NEW FUEL TANK WHICH IS ABOUT $700.00 INSTALLED. THE DEALER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ALSO INFORMED ME THE FUEL TANKS WERE ON BACK ORDER DUE TO SO MANY BEING REPLACED. *TW

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK ON MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO, GASOLINE SURGES OUT OF FUEL TANK ONTO THE VEHICLE, THE GROUND AND THE PERSON FILLING THE VEHICLE IF THEY ARE STANDING TOO CLOSE. AS MUCH AS A 1/2 PINT OF FLUID MAY SURGE OUT ONCE THE TANK HAS BEEN COMPLETELY FILLED. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME UNLESS YOU ARE FILLING THE TANK VERY SLOWLY.
