FUEL OVERFLOWS FROM THE INLET WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO ACTUALLY FILL THE TANK (WHICH I ONLY GET 20 GALLONS INTO A 27 GALLON TANK EVEN WHEN THE LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES ON), THE FUEL WILL OVERFLOW OUT OF THE INLET AS SOON AS THE HANDLE CLICKS OFF. IT'S NOT A SMALL AMOUNT OF OVERFLOW EITHER, IT'S ENOUGH THAT THE FUEL ENDS UP DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND INTO A PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. THIS HAS CAUSED THE ONLY SURFACE RUST ON THE ENTIRE VEHICLE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING REFUELED, FUEL SPILLED TO THE GROUND AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE FAILURE. THE 02 SENSOR WAS REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE FUEL CONTINUED TO SPILL TO THE GROUND WHEN REFUELING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

AS WITH THE 2005 DURANGOS & THE MANY 2007 DURANGO COMPLAINTS, I TOO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE FUEL SPEWING OUT FROM THE FILLER NECK AFTER THE PUMP HAS SHUT OFF. THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF (FUEL INTAKE CHECK VALVE) IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY & ALLOWS QUITE A BIT OF FUEL TO SHOOT OUT FROM THE VEHICLE. THIS IS NOT ONLY A SAFETY CONCERN, BUT IT HAS ALSO CAUSED THE PAINT ON MY VEHICLE TO BEGIN BUBBLING UP, WHICH WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE A RUSTING ISSUE. I HAVE TO USE THE WINDSHIELD CLEANER BRUSH AT THE PUMP STATION TO WIPE THE EXCESS FUEL OFF MY VEHICLE TO PREVENT ANY FURTHER BUBBLING. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS REPORTED & A RECALL ISSUED. IT'S RIDICULOUS! *TR

FUEL SPEWS OUT OF FILLER NECK WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED
Fuel system, Gasoline, Jan 7, 2012
I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW AND NOTICED WITHIN THE FIRST 1000 MILES WHEN FILLING UP AND USING THE AUTO SHUT OFF, GAS WOULD SPILL OUT OF THE TANK ON THE SIDE OF THE CAR. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE PUMP ITSELF AND TRIED OTHERS. I WAS TOLD BY LOCAL DODGE DEALER THERE WASN'T A PROBLEM AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS WOULD EVER COME ON INDICATING AN ISSUE. MY FUEL CAP HAS BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES BUT I CAN'T USE AUTO SHUTOFF ANY MORE WITH THIS VEHICLE. I'VE GOTTEN USE TO NOT FILLING UP BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD BY OTHERS THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS. MY CAR GOES IN THE SHOP TUES 1/9/12 UNDER WARRANTY AND WONDERING WHAT THEY WILL SAY. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Jan 2, 2012
EVERYTIME I TRY TO FILL THE GAS TANK, IT SPEWS GAS BACK OUT AT ME. THE AUTOMATIC PUMP SHUTOFF WILL TRIP FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY A BUNCH OF GAS SQUIRTING BACK OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS CANNOT BE SAFE. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Dec 28, 2011
WHEN FUELING MY DURANGO, THE GAS PUMP WILL KICK OFF BUT A SHORT TIME LATER GAS WILL SPILL/SPRAY OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. I HAVE TRIED VARIOUS GAS PUMPS AND PUMP RATES ALL RESULTING IN THE SAME ACTIONS, USUALLY A GAS SOAKED SLEEVE, GAS RUNNING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, AND A PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. IT IS TO THE POINT MY WIFE IS SCARED TO FUEL OUR DURANGO. I HAVE CALLED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SEEM TO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SUCH PROBLEMS. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE NOTE OF THIS AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BEFORE IT RESULTS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Dec 27, 2011
MY 2007 DODGE DURANGO 4X4 LIMITED OVERFLOWS GASOLINE AT THE FUEL FILLER NECK EACH TIME I ALLOW THE AUTO-SHUTOFF TO FILL THE TANK. THIS PROBLEM STARTED AT APPROXIMATELY 55,000 MILES. THE FUEL SHUTOFF ALWAYS WORKS, BUT A SECOND OR SO LATER, A LARGE SPRAY OF PRESSURIZED FUEL SQUIRTS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK FROM AROUND THE FUEL NOZZLE. AGAIN, THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED, NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION AND NO MATTER WHAT TEMPERATURE OR PRIOR FUEL LEVEL. IT HAS HAPPENED CONTINUALLY FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS. I CAN PREVENT THE OVERSPRAY BY SHUTTING OFF THE FUEL BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL AND ALLOWING THE NOZZLE TO STAND FOR 20 SECONDS BEFORE REMOVING IT. THE DODGE DEALERSHIPS I HAVE TALKED TO DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS HAPPENING. THIS IS A FIRE-SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Dec 27, 2011
THIS TRUCK WAS PURCHASED USED IN NOVEMBER 2011 WITH 45000 MILES. I HAVE FILLED THE TANK 3 TIMES AND EVERY TIME THE PUMP AUTO SHUT-OFF CLICKS AND A FEW CUPS OF FUEL OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE 2005 MODEL YEAR WAS RECALLED WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM, BUT 2007 HAD NOT YET BEEN RECALLED. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Dec 27, 2011
MY DURANGO IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT I SEE COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE PLACE FOR. I HAVE THE FUEL SPEWING BACK OUT OF THE TANK WHEN I AM PUMPING GAS...THE NOZZLE WILL CLICK OFF, THEN A GEYSER SHOOTS OUT AND IT'S A LOT! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RECALL/FIX THIS PROBLEM. HOW LONG OR HOW MANY VEHICLES IS IT GOING TO TAKE BEFORE ANY ACTION WILL TAKE PLACE. ARE YA'LL WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE...A FIRE...ETC?? THIS IS A HAZARD, NOT ONLY FOR THE PERSON WHO IS FILLING UP THE TANK, BUT FOR THE GAS STATION AS WELL. WHEN THIS HAPPENED TO ME, MY HAND BURNED FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE DAY, AND THIS WAS AFTER I WASHED IT SEVERAL TIMES....NOT TO MENTION MY SCRUBS WERE RUINED. SOMETHING SERIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURTS! *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Dec 22, 2011
WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK EXTRA GASOLINE IS SPIT OUT OF THE TANK WHICH IS A FIRE ISSUE FOR THE GAS STATION. IF WE ARE FILLING THE GAS TANK, WHEN THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOPS GAS POURS BACK OUT OF THE TANK. ALSO THE GAS CAP LIGHT CAME ON RECENTLY & THE GAS CAP WAS REPLACED BUT LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I BELIEVE THIS WOULD BE THE SAME RECALL AS THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO FUEL SYSTEM GASOLINE STORAGE TANK ASSEMBLY. WE ARE TAKING THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER IN LITTLE FALLS, NJ ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 26, 2011 FOR THE REPAIRS TO BE MADE. IF YOU SEARCH THE INTERNET YOU WILL FIND OTHER DODGE DURANGOS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THERE IS A YOUTUBE VIDEO OF A 2007 DODGE DURANGO DEMONSTRATING WHAT HAPPENS AT THE END OF FILLING THE TANK. HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=FS5U63CN-II. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Nov 28, 2011
UPON NORMAL FUELING OF THE VEHICLE, GAS WILL SIGNIFICANTLY EXPEL FROM FUEL INLET WHEN THE GAS STATION FUEL PUMP SHUTS OFF. THIS CAUSES DANGEROUS FUEL TO BE IN CONTACT WITH PEOPLE, VEHICLE, OBJECTS AND GROUND AT FUEL STATION. THIS IS A CONDITION THAT WAS NOT CAUSED BY THE OWNER OR FROM NORMAL OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. THIS OBVIOUS FUELING DEFECT IS CAUSE FOR GENERAL PUBLIC CONCERN FOR MANY REASONS; EXCESSIVE SKIN CONTACT WITH CHEMICALS, THREAT OF MAJOR FIRE OR EXPLOSION THAT COULD INJURE, HARM OR KILL INDIVIDUALS AND IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD TO THE COMMUNITY. *KB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WOULD SPEW OUT OF THE FUEL TANK WHILE REFUELING. THE CONTACT DID NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER OR A LOCAL MECHANIC FOR INSPECTION OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND A COMPLAINT WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 33,000.
Fuel system, Gasoline, Oct 28, 2011
WHILE FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK AND RELYING ON THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF, GAS WILL SPEW OUT COVERING THE PERSON STANDING THERE, THE GROUND, AND THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. EVEN WHEN APPROXIMATING THE TANK BEING FULL AND TRYING TO CONTROL THE FLOW BY HAND, GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOW JUST NOT WITH THE SAME FORCE. BESIDES THE ANNOYANCE OF BEING COVERED IN AND SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE, THIS DEFECT POSES MAJOR SAFETY RISKS. MAN UP DODGE AND HELP US GET THIS FIXED. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Sep 12, 2011

I JUST PURCHASED A USED DODGE DURANGO WITH 28,900 MILES ON IT. I DISCOVERED BEGINNING THE DAY I BOUGHT IT THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT GASOLINE INTO THE DURANGO WITHOUT IT DUMPING OUT APPROXIMATELY A LARGE AMOUNT AFTER THE HOSE SHUTS OFF. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER IF IT IS AN ATTEMPT TO FILL THE TANK OR JUST TO ADD ANY AMOUNT OF GASOLINE TO THE VEHICLE. IT ALWAYS DOES IT ABOUT 1 OR 2 SECONDS AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS OFF. THE GASOLINE GOES DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THERE IS ALWAYS A LARGE PUDDLE ON THE GROUND UNDER THE VEHICLE. I AM AFRAID THAT SOMEDAY IT WILL CATCH ON FIRE DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FUEL LOSS. THE IS ALSO ALWAYS A GASOLINE SMELL INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AFTER FILLING THE TANK. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND ALSO REPORTED TO THE NTSB REGARDING THIS ISSUE. WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL? *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Aug 31, 2011
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER ADDING GASOLINE TO THE FUEL TANK, IT SPEW OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL VAPOR VALVE WAS DEFECTIVE, AS A RESULT THE GASOLINE TANK AND FUEL LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE INLET CHECK VALVE DOES NOT FULLY CLOSE AT THE END OF REFUELING. IT ALLOWS SOME FUEL TO ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE FILLER NECK. NOW THE GAS CAP LIGHT MESSAGE STAYS ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON. THIS WAS A RECALL FOR THE 2005 DURANGO MINE IS A 2007 IS THIS RECALL STILL ACTIVE FOR MY VEHICLE?
Fuel system, Gasoline, Jul 18, 2011
2007 DODGE DURANGO. WHEN REFUELING THE AUTO, FUEL SPEWS FROM THE TANK EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND FIRE HAZARD. THIS HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF THE FLOW OF GAS INTO THE TANK. PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE A SERIOUS EVENT TAKES PLACE AND LIVES ARE LOST OR SERIOUS INJURY TAKES PLACE. *KB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE DURANGO 4X4. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CONTACT DROVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE WHEEL WAS POINTNG OUTWARD, AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CONTRIBUTED TO A LOOSE TIE ROD. THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REPAIRED. THERE WAS A RECALL POSSIBLY RELATED TO THE FAILURE UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 06V386000 (STEERING); AND THE CONTACT PLANNED TO NOTIFY THE DEALER TO VERIFY WHETHER THE VIN WAS INCLUDED. IN ADDITION, WHENEVER REFUELING, A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF FUEL WOULD SPRAY OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
