Fuel/Propulsion System
When i get gas it doesn't matter if i have a little gas or half a tank my gas as i'm pumping always comes out and backfires at me ....it just starts spitting out at me for no reason... Even when i'm empty and i start pumping gas it happens after about 10 seconds of pumping gas it just decides to come back at me.. So i'm wasting gas all the time it happens about every fourth time i get gas....

Gas gushes out of the fill tube when the tank becomes full. It doesn't seem to matter how fast or slow the tank is filled. When full, the automatic nozzle does shut off but only after gas has spurted out and runs down the fender. I need to emphasize that this is an ongoing problem that happens over and over again. The most recent date is listed below.

Fuel spits back at end of refueling. Dealer mentioned a recall on the inlet check valve but that my vin was not included in that recall. It should be. It is the exact same problem. It is a major safety issue when a gush of fuel splatters all over the attendant, my car and the ground every time i fill up.

Fuel/Propulsion System
When filling the tank up with fuel, rather than stopping automatically, the nozzle clicks and fuel burps out onto the vehicle and the ground. This happens when stationary at a gas station filling up with fuel. I believe this may be the common issue with the fuel tank filler inlet check valve or fuel tank filler. Each are common recalls found on the nhtsa website under this specific vehicle.

When fueling with fuel at the end if not stooped regulatory to allow the fuel to empty into the tank the fuel will come out of the filling hole and keep going until you stop the fuel pump. Once you stop the fuel p[ump it will take about 3 sec to stop coming out but until then you will have about 1 quart to half a gallon of fuel all over the side of the durango, tire, and ground

When attempting to re-fuel, immediate backflow/discharge of fuel causing hazard. This occurs even when fuel tank is below 1/4 tank level. Re-fueling must be done at a very slow rate to reduce number of backlow discharges that occur during a single re-fueling session.

Every time i fill my tank, fuel burps back out and spills all over the side of the suv and on the ground. I called dodge, and they said the recall for this was already performed, and that repairing it will cost me around $900! If a recall, has been fixed, and still the problem persists, then the recall should be re-performed!

Upon filling the gas tank since the first time on june 15, 2017, and every time since then, the fuel always spits back, and all over the place, including on the gas attendant, upon any one walking by, on the car, and of course, on the ground. It may or may not be the fuel tank inlet check valve (fuel filler tube), but the dangerous safety issue remains. I have read that 20,000 durangos have been recalled from 2005…
