GAS OVERFLOW SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN FILLING UP THE TANK, THE SAFETY VAVLE IN THE GAS TANK FAILS AND DOES NOT SHUT THE PUMP OFF. DUE TO THIS, GASOLINE SPURTS OUT OF THE TANK. APPROXIMATELY 5 CUPS OF GASOLINE SPURTS OUT. MOST RECENTLY, MY DAUGHTER FILLED UP OUR TANK AND THE GAS SPURTED OUT ON HER. THIS IS BOTH A SAFETY ISSUE AND AN ENVIROMENTAL ISSUE. *TR

AROUND AUGUST 10, 2011, AS I WAS GETTING FUEL IT SPRAYED FUEL EVERYWHERE AFTER THE NOZZLE HAD STOPPED. I HAVE EVEN TRIED TO SLOW THE RATE OF FUEL AND THAT DOES NOT MATTER. EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK, IT SPRAYS EVERYWHERE. I TRIED DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND STILL NO LUCK. THIS POSES A SAFETY HAZARD AS ALL OF THE FUEL SPILLED ON THE VEHICLE, THE GROUND, AND ON MY CLOTHES. *TR

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE OF FUEL OVERFLOW WITH 2ND GENERATION DODGE DURANGO THAT DODGE REFUSES TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL TO FIX. AT THE CONCLUSION OF REFUELING APPROXIMATELY 0.25 GAL WILL GURGLE TO FORCEFULLY EJECT ITSELF FROM THE FUEL FILLER NECK OF THE DURANGO. SPILLING FUEL EVERY FILL UP IS A PERSONAL SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION CONCERN WHICH NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

ONE LITER OF GAS ON MY HAND, SLEEVE, RIGHT LEG, RIGHT SHOE, AND THE FENDER/BUMPER OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND THERE IS NO WARNING FROM DODGE THAT THIS MAY OCCUR. THIS WAS A RECALL ON 2005'S AND DODGE REPRESENTATIVES TOLD ME WHEN I ASKED ABOUT AN ASSIST, "IF IT WAS A RECALL BEFORE AND ISN'T NOW, THE ISSUES WOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED ON THE ASSEMBLY LINE".

I HAVE FILLED UP MY VEHICLE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED. EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP THE GAS TANK BUBBLES AND IS SHOOTS A DECENT AMOUNT OF GAS OUT OF THE TANK ONTO THE GROUND AND DOWN THE SIDE OF MY CAR. THIS CAUSES MY CAR TO SMELL LIKE GASOLINE AND LEAVES A PUDDLE OF APPROX 1 CUP OF GAS ON THE GROUND. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A PARTICULAR GAS STATIONS NOZZLE, BUT AFTER GOING TO MULTIPLE DIFFERENT STATIONS, I HAVE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE NOT CONTACTED DODGE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, BUT I WILL BE SOON. I KNOW THERE CURRENTLY IS NO RECALL FOR THIS, BUT THERE SHOULD BE, THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD TO HAVE GAS FLYING OUT OF THE GAS TANK. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Dec 2, 2011
DURING FUELING OPERATIONS THE VEHICLES FUEL TANK WAS ALMOST FULL WHICH TRIGGERED THE FUEL PUMP TO SHUT OFF, AND THEN IMMEDIATELY FUEL BEGAN RUSHING OUT OF THE FUELING NOZZLE OF THE VEHICLE GETTING ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, MY HAND, FOOT AND THE GROUND. THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN 60 TIMES SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE IN 2006, AND NOW HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK TO FULL. THERE WAS A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THE 2005 DURANGO THAT JUSTIFIED A RECALL, AND THE SAME PROBLEM EXISTS WITH THE 2006, ALTHOUGH THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL. I HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T TAKE A MAJOR INCIDENT, FIRE OR DEATH BEFORE CHRYSLER TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY AND DOES THE RIGHT TYHING BY REPAIRING THE BAD VALVE IN THESE TANKS. *TR
