On any number of occasions (regardless of outside temperature or whether or not the vehicle was at normal operating temperature) while the vehicle is at a slow speed (in forward or reverse) the engine will stall without warning. With the loss of engine power comes the normal loss of power steering and power brakes. It appears to be most frequent when pulling into or out of a parking lot, stop sign, etc. The slow…

I was driving in my apartment complex and as i slowed down to turn my truck just shut off. Steering wheel locks and i am not able to turn. I have to press hard on the brake for it to stop and i can then put it into park and turn the key to turn it back on. I have two small children of the age of 1 & 2. Having them in the car with me when this happens is nerve wrecking. It's happened at least once or twice every 2-3…

When you fill the tank up with gas and the nozzle shuts off a lot of gasoline spills out of the tank onto the durango and on the ground. I'm the second owner. The first owner warned me of this before hand. He said it has always done this and never did anything about it. I called chrysler and they said "my vin number is not covered under the recall." the recall was for the check valve. They also said "bring it in to…

When you fill the fuel tank and the pump shuts off the gas always comes gushing out all over the vehicle and the ground. Dodge has recalled some of the 2005 durango's for this problem and replaced the fuel tanks, but my vin is not on the list even though it has the same problem. I have contacted dodge and they have confirmed that they will not cover this problem. I have researched this and many people are having the…

When filling the tank, the pump shuts off and gasoline continues to spill out. This has happened on numerous occasions and we have to avoid topping off the tank in order to avoid the spill. When doing some research, we found that there was a recall in 2009 for the fuel system/gasoline storage tank assembly. Today (4/8/13), we contacted and spoke to our dodge/chrysler dealer and they stated that there was indeed a…

My 2005 dodge durango had the completed recall h45 worked done on 4/27/2009. The dodge dealership replaced the gas tank per the h45 recall. The dodge dealership considers the matter closed but the issue has now occurred with this new installed tank. The vehicle had 28,994 miles when this work was done. Now the vehicle has 68,000 miles on it and the same issue occurs while filling the gas tank up. Upon shut off of…

Each time i fill the vehicle with fuel it spits back up through the filler tube and all over the side of the vehicle. The pump then shuts off. I have notified two fuel stations of this at the time i filled the vehicle thinking it might be a pump problem, but i researched and many vehicles of this model have reported this to be a problem. There is a strong odor of fuel in and around the vehicle at the time of fill up…

I received a letter recently from my local dodge dealer indicating my 2005 dodge durango would require repair for something causing the fuel to spill out during fill up. This has happened to me several times in the past as i was unaware that there was a recall for this. After receiving this letter a few weeks ago i inspected the quarter panel underneath the gas tank more closely noticing bubbling of the paint with…

When you fill the vehicle with gas, the pump will not shut off. This is resulting in gasoline spraying out of the opening. This sprays gas all over the person filling the vehicle, down the side of the vehicle and the ground.

Recently purchased used vehicle. Every time you fill up the fuel tank, when the pump automatically shuts off fuel sprays past the nozzles vapor recovery boot and out of the fuel filler neck. This is vaporized/atomized gasoline, which leads to an extreme fire hazard. I notified dodge of this situation, but they responded only by saying that there are no open recalls or campaigns regarding my vehicle. *tr

This is getting ridiculous and it seems that no one is willing to take ownership for a faulty system that is obviously dangerous. What i found to be absurd is how multiple people have posted numerous complaints about the same issue, recalls have been made for the same issue and still no action. I have a 2005 dodge durango and each and every time i fill my tank the pump will stop but an excessive amount of gas will…
