    As i was refueling i noticed in the pump that it was at 29 gallons but it was still filling up and my tank wasn't empty so right away i knew something was wrong and looked on the bottom that it was spilling all the gas i'm thinking from the inside of the filler neck or hose but from under the car so something is wrong because it didn't stop filling up, thx *tr

    Problem when refilling the gas tank. When the tank gets full, fuel sprays out of the gas tank fill port. At first i thought it was faulty equipment at the gas station but it has happened consecutive times at different gas stations. Probably sprays out 8 or 12 ounces. *tr

    The shut off valve has not worked correctly for over the past year. When filling the gas tank gas is spit back on the car and driveway service. This happens even if i pause for a period during filling the tank to let pressure release. My dealer says they have never heard of this, had to believe with so many complaints all over the internet. I would like dodge to step up and take care of the problem. Help....... *tr

    When i filled my car with gas it the pump kicked off but fuel came spilling out from the tank. The fuel spilled over me, the car and the ground. At first i thought it was a one time thing but it has happened numerous times, even when i have not filled the tank completely. This has now caused serious rust around my tank and through the corner panel. It has now rusted through completely. I am afraid of the safety of…

    I bought my 2006 dodge durango used with 119,000 miles in november 2013. Every time i fill up, the gas overflows. I always fill-up when stopping for gas because i drive an hour, one way, into town and have to get gas often. Regardless of how i pump gas it always overflows. I have tried pumping fast, pumping slow, and putting the nozzle all the way in. I have a two year daughter and i am concerned this overflow may…

    Due to the faulty fuel check valve my vehicle has a line of rust straight down from the gas cap. Dodge repaired the check valve but will not cover any body work due to the mileage/date when the recall repair was performed. With dodge being at fault for faulty equipment they should also cover the damage caused to my vehicle from the equipment. I have contacted dodge on multiple occasions but have been turned down for…

    While filling the gas tank, the pump shuts off, then fuel pours out of the filler. This happens at any gas station, and almost every time we fill up the tank. This an an extreme hazard and a very costly inconvenience. Every time we fill up, gas is wasted, the car becomes a dangerous and horribly smelling hazard. Dodge recalled the 2005 durango for the same issue, but has yet to do the same for the following model…

    Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. The contact stated that after refueling, fuel spewed out of the filler neck. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the fuel tank was defective and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not offer any assistance since the vehicle was not included in any recalls. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure…

    When filling my vehicle at the gas station, the gas will overflow or spit out of the tank instead of stopping normally when the tank nears full level. This happens no matter how slowly i am refueling. There is already a recall for this exact issue on the 05 models but there still is not one for the 06 even though there are several complaints just like this. This is a very dangerous fire hazard that needs to be dealt…

    When trying to put fuel to fill up the car gas explodes out of tank. This happens any time when trying to put gas in the vehicle, it's probably at least a half gallon each and every time, it gets all over me the vehicle the ground. It's to the point were i can't even fill up, fuel shouldn't come out when filling a vehicle up and with the summer months upon us this is a great hazard. I would figure this is a major…

    I have two issues with my durango. During fueling the pump does not shut off causing an overflow of gas on the ground, on my shoes, etc. This is an ongoing issue that has been happening since we purchased the vehicle. My mechanic thinks it is a sensor issue but dodge has not recalled the vehicle to fix it. The second issue is i can take my key out of the ignition while the engine and ignition are in the run…

    Vehicle was purchased used in april of 2012 and the fuel overflow was noticed immediately upon purchase. Seller informed that it was a national problem with all durango vehicles and there was no fix. In the meantime, the fuel overflows at each refill and has caused me to immediately wash down the area (while fueling) to prevent fire and additional corrosion. *tr

    When filling fuel tank completely, fuel spits back out at the owner and down the quarter panel, every time. We purchased this vehicle used one month ago. We've tried different gas pumps at different gas stations owned by different companies. I feel this vehicle should be covered under the recall that covers earlier durangos. I rather lick a fat clown's [xxx] than buy another chrysler product. Information redacted…

With my 2006 dodge durango, fuel sprays out of the fill tube because of a check valve that has already been recalled two different times. No warnings, no letters to the owners of the durango now to advise them to use caution. Please open an investigation now and have this serious safety issue corrected for all of the durango…

    While fueling the car at the gas station i keep continuing to have back-flow of gas when filling up. It is happening every-time and i think this is not a safe thing to have gas coming flying back out and getting over the ground. This is a real safety hazard. I have found there is a lot of issues with the 2005 models and now the 2006's are having the same problem. The inquiry is rq08005 and the recall is 05v034000…
