IF I LEAVE IT ON THE AUTO FILL IT WILL CLICK OFF AND PUKE ALMOST A FULL QUART OF FUEL ON THE GROUND. IF I HAND FILL IT AT A SLOWER RATE IT WILL PUKE ONLY ABOUT A PINT. THIS LAST TIME IN A SNOWSTORM IT SPRAYED UPWARD AND NOT JUST OUT, HAD I NOT BEEN WEARING GLASSES I WOULD HAVE HAD FUEL IN THE EYES. POTENTIAL FOR LOST EYESIGHT FOR THE SHORTER PEOPLE. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO AND FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS EVERY TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK AND IT EVEN GETS REMOTELY CLOSE TO FULL IT SPRAYS FUEL AT ME EVERYWHERE AND SPILLS TONS ON THE GROUND. I CAN'T LEAVE IT FOR A SECOND AND IT CAN'T GET FULL OR IT'S HORRIBLE. I SEE THAT THE 2005 DURANGO'S HAD A BIG RECALL FOR THE SAME EXACT INCIDENT BUT NOTHING FOR THE 2006'S. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND I'M TOLD THAT THE WHOLE FUEL TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE DO TO THE AMOUNT OF GAS THAT SPRAYS OUT AND NOTHING CAN REALLY BE DONE TO STOP IT EXCEPT ME PAY TO REPLACE IT OR TO NOT FILL MY TANK WHICH IS A PAIN.
