Fuel system, Gasoline, Mar 31, 2009
EVERYTIME I COMPLETELY FILL UP THE FUEL TANK ON MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO, I GET GAS SPRAYED ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT HAS STARTED OCCURRING IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS, AND IT WILL OCCUR EVERYTIME UNLESS I FILL IT AT THE SLOWEST PUMP SPEED, AND THEN SOMETIMES IT STILL OCCURS. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Mar 24, 2009
EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO, THE GASOLINE NOZZLE SHUTS OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL BUT THE VEHICLE STILL "SPITS" OUT ROUGHLY A HALF GALLON OF GASOLINE ALL OVER THE GROUND, VEHICLE AND THE PERSON FILLING THE TANK. I HAVE TRIED MANY GAS STATIONS TO BE SURE THAT IT IS NOT THE PUMP AND HAVE VERIFIED THAT IT IS THE VEHICLE. IN MY RESEARCH AND DISCUSSIONS WITH DODGE DEALERS, IT SEEMS THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR 2005 MODELS FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, BUT THEY FAIL TO ISSUE ONE FOR THE 2006 MODEL. I CALLED DAIMLERCHRYSLER AND THEY REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE MECHANIC SAYS THAT IT WILL COST ROUGHLY $800 TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK REPLACED AND GET THE PROBLEM FIXED. I FIND THIS UNREASONABLE AS THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. AS A FIREFIGHTER, I HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH FUEL SPILLS AND THE DEFINITE POTENTIAL FOR A LARGE FIRE AS A RESULT OF A SMALL FUEL SPILL SUCH AS THIS. IN ADDITION TO THE DANGER OF FIRE THERE IS ALSO A POTENTIAL FOR ASPIRATION OF GASOLINE LIQUID OR FUMES AS A RESULT OF THE GASOLINE SPEWING OUT AT THE PERSON FILLING THE TANK. THIS COULD CAUSE POTENTIAL DEATH IF IT OCCURRED. I PERSONALLY HAVE HAD THE GASOLINE SPEW OUT AND GOT A DROP IN MY EYE, REQUIRING ME TO RUN TO THE BATHROOM AND FLUSH MY EYE OUT. THE SPILLS HAVE ALSO RUINED ARTICLES OF MY CLOTHING AND WILL EVENTUALLY RUIN THE PAINT ON MY VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL TANK OVERFLOW I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT I ABSOLUTELY "LOVE" EXCEPT THE FACT THAT THE PAST 2 MONTHS HAS DEVELOPED A PROBLEM. EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS (EVEN AT DIFFERENT STATIONS), MY GAS TANK OVER FILLS AND GAS IS "GUSHING" OUT AND A GOOD AMOUNT IS LOST. MY CONCERN IS NOT SO MUCH THE EXPENSE IN WASTE OF EXTRA GAS I NEED TO PAY FOR. BUT, I HAVE GAS DRIPPING DOWN THE SIDE OF MY TRUCK AND IN BETWEEN MY BUMPER FASCIA. AND, THIS ALSO CAUSES A GREAT SCENT OF GASOLINE THAT ALSO SOMEHOW GETS INTO THE VEHICLE, AND LINGERS FOR QUITE A BIT OF TIME AFTERWARDS. I HATE THE SMELL OF GAS. I NOW FILL UP WHEN I DO NOT HAVE MY3 KIDS IN THE TRUCK DUE TO THE SMELL AND GAS FUMES ARE KNOWN TO CAUSE CANCER. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND DISCOVER A RECALL ID# 58886 WHICH SEEMS TO DESCRIBE THE SAME EXACT SITUATION I AM HAVING. UNFORTUNATE FOR ME, THIS RECALL WAS FOR 2005 DODGE DURANGO'S AND NOT 2006. I HAVE ALSO BEEN ON THE PHONE WITH DODGE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM MANY TIMES THEY KEEP TELLING ME THEY NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM KEEP TELLING THEM SAME PROBLEM AS THE O5. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THIS SITUATION INVESTIGATED. I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST A RECALL FOR 2006 DODGE DURANGO'S BE CONSIDERED AS WELL. IT DOES MAKE ME FEEL A LITTLE BETTER KNOWING I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS STILL A CONSISTENT PROBLEM THAT REALLY, FOR SAFETY REASON MUST BE RESOLVED. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE MANY INCONSIDERATE PEOPLE THAT I HAVE COME ACROSS AT GAS STATIONS THAT TAKE PLEASURE IN DISCARDING THEIR LIT CIGARETTES ONTO THE GROUND. AND, I WILL BE VERY UPSET (IF I WAS TO LIVE) IF THAT IGNITED LIGHT CAME IN CONTACT WITH GAS THAT HAS SPILLED OUT OF MY VEHICLE. I GREATLY THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ MY CONCERN. AND, I REALLY AM HOPING THAT YOU CAN HELP TO RESOLVE MY SITUATION, AND OTHERS IN MY AREA. *TR

Fuel system, Gasoline, Mar 22, 2009
WHEN FUELING MY VEHICLE, THE FUEL OVERFLOWS AT THE END OF THE FILL-UP SPITTING APPROXIMATELY 1 PINT OF GAS EACH TIME. THE CONDITION OCCURS WHEN THE TANK IS SHOWN AS EMPTY OR PARTIALLY EMPTY (I.E. 1/2 TANK). IN ADDITION, THE ISSUE OCCURS WHETHER I MANUALLY HOLD THE GAS PUMP LEVER OR PLACE THE PUMP LEVER ON ITS AUTOMATIC LATCH. THE PROBLEM HAS BECOME CONSISTENT OVER THE PAST 2-3 MONTHS WHILE IT ONLY OCCURRED A FEW TIMES IN THE PAST 2 YEARS THAT I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. I JUST TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR REVIEW AND THEY HAVE INDICATED THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE, 3/19, AND ON 3/22 THE FUEL SPITTING OCCURRED DURING FILL-UP ONCE AGAIN. *TR

I HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE MAINLY FOR THE SAFETY AND SECURITY IT HAS GIVEN ME WHILE DRIVING MY 4 YEAR OLD SON. HE HATES THE SMELL OF GAS. I NOW FILL UP WHEN I DO NOT HAVE HIM IN THE TRUCK. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND DISCOVER A RECALL ID# 58886 WHICH SEEMS TO DESCRIBE THE SAME EXACT SITUATION I AM HAVING. UNFORTUNATE FOR ME, THIS RECALL WAS FOR 2005 DODGE DURANGO'S AND NOT 2006. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THIS SITUATION INVESTIGATED. I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST A RECALL FOR 2006 DODGE DURANGO'S BE CONSIDERED AS WELL.

THE FUEL TANK ON MY DODGE DURANGO SPEWS GAS OUT ONTO THE VEHICLE AND PAVEMENT AT THE END OF FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. THIS BEGAN OCCURRING ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO AND HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP.
