    I had my 2005 durango into the local dealership due to fuel shooting out of my gas tank when i filled it up with gas. I was told after diagnostic tests that it was a faulty inlet check valve and that the fuel tank needed to be replaced. I was quoted $1200 to have the tank replaced. I don't believe that i should have to pay for the tank replacement. After much online research, i see that this has been an ongoing…

    While filing up with gas, when the pump clicks off when it is full gas spews out of the filler neck while the gas nozzle is still in there.. Apparently this is a widespread problem and a recall has been issued on 2006-2007 models but not 2005's like mine.. It would be nice to be able to fill my truck up with gas and not have it spew out all over the side of my truck and the ground.. *tr

    When filling with gas, fuel will spill back out of the filling tube, some times when it gets full, other times it will do it all the time. Dodge has had recalls on some of these 2005 for similar issues, but for some reason ours does not fall into the range. Every time will fill fuel there is gas everywhere. *tr

    When filling with gas fuel will come back out the filling spout and spill gas all over the car and ground, and sometimes the person filling it. Dodge has had recall on some of the 2005 for the same problem but ours does not fall into their range. This seems to be a big safety concern with fuel going on me, the car, and the ground. *tr

    When filling up gas tank, the tank spews gas back. I received a recall notice when it first came out in 2009. I did have my vehicle checked at that time (then i was not having problems.) the dealership said it was taken care of. Now, my durango is having problems with it. The tank even spews gas when filling slowly. *tr

    When i fill up with gasoline, if i do not stop 2 gallons shy of a fill or slow it to a trickle, it will spew about a 1/2 gallon of gasoline down the side of the vehicle. I have done an online search and found chrysler is recalling close to 25,000 2005 dodge durango vehicles as the fuel tank filler tube inlet check valve may not fully close at the end of refueling. This could allow some fuel to escape from the…

    When fueling, approx. 1 to 2 quarts of gas burps out of the fuel filler tube. This occurs regardless of how fast or slow the fuel is dispensed. Seems to not be venting properly. I see daimlerchrysler recall # e01 and h45 have been issued, however my manufacture dates do not fall within range. Can my vin info be checked and/or are there any other options available to have this repaired by the dealer without cost? *tr
