Fuel System, Gasoline
While pumping gas into my 2006 dodge durango limited, the fuel hose shut off sensing that the tank was almost full however the fuel came spewing out of the tank from the vehicle. Approximately 1/4 of a gallon of fuel spilled out onto me, the vehicle, tail pipe and the ground. This has happened now five times in a row. This could be a fire hazard, and definitely a chemical burn on my hands and uncovered feet. There…

There is a problem with the fuel filling in 2006 dodge durango's. When filling, fuel backwashes out of the fuel opening after the pump stops fueling. This overspill occurs every time, and also times when i try to stop fueling before the tank is full. It is dangerous, and needs to be addressed. It started a few months ago. I don't fill the durango very often (i don't drive it much), but started to occur last year. *tr

This gasoline is sprayed over anyone and anything within approximately three feet of the vehicle in direct line with the fuel door, as well as spilling down the side of the vehicle itself and onto the ground. Several other 2004-2006 dodge durango owners i…

Gas station fuel pumps do not automatically shut off when refueling vehicle resulting in fuel gushing out the filler pipe and spilling down the side of the vehicle. This occurs regardless of the gas station used and therefore appears to be a problem with the vehicle. *tr

When fueling my vehicle and the pump clicks off, fuel just spews from the tank all over the ground which angers me due to the environmental factor. This happens every time even at the lowest refuel speed. I noticed many complaints from other 2006 durango owners. Those that had it diagnosed at a dodge dealer say that the gas tank needed to be replaced which solved the problem but costs $600.00 or more. This is the…

When i fill my truck with gas it spews out. I have gotten to where i never completely fill my truck. When is someone going to investigate this and issue a recall? I have a feeling that the only way we dodge owners get this problem fixed is if someone is hurt while trying to fill their truck. All it would take is one spark when the gas spills out. Please, force dodge to fix this issue before we hear on the news that…
