Fuel System, Gasoline
Beginning with the first time i filled the tank, when the fuel fuller nozzle is set to auto fill, when the filler clicks off, fuel gushes back out of the tank and down the side of the car and all over the ground. I was standing too close and my pants leg got soaked to the point that my skin burned from the presence of gasoline. [i'm glad that i quit smoking in 1984 now for an additional reason.] the next time i…

Filling gas tank at fuel pump; set the auto-fil on pump; handle clicked (as normal when a tank is full) as i reached to grab the handle to put away - right before i touch the handle gas is regurgitated and spewed all over me and the side o f the vehicle. I reported the issue to the gas station clerk as a faulty pump and he put an out of order sign on it. Then less than a week later it does the same thing and…

While filling gas tank the auto stop on the pump will kick off. After a few seconds fuel will begin to flow out of the tank. Tried to stop the pump on my own and still continues to do it. Sounds like the same recall they had on the 2005 durangos. *tr

I filled up gas tank on 2008 dodge durango using the auto lock on gas pump handle. When tank was filled and handle clicked gas began to spew out of the filler tube before i could remove gas pump handle. Total spillage was less than half a gal. *kb

The gas tank began burping upon filling. Once the auto cutoff clicks off, about 5-10 seconds later the tank burps a large puddle onto the ground that is well larger than my foot. Apparently this is an ongoing issue that starts with a recall in 2005. I found this while researching how to repair the issue. The issues have transferred into 2007 durangos and now to my 2008. Did dodge fail to accurately address the 2005…

Fuel spray from filler neck when tank reaches full. The shut off in the filler neck/gas tank fails causing fuel to spray from the filler neck towards the person filling and on the side of the vehicle, approx. A pint or so worth of gas. *tr

Fuel System, Gasoline
When refueling, after pump shuts off, a large volume of fuel will spray out of the filler neck. This fuel flows down the side of the vehicle, sprays on the person standing near the pump and puddles on the ground. After driving off, the odor of the fuel is very strong in the vehicle. This has happened many times in the last 5 months, and now occurs every time the tank is filled. *tr

I have a 2008 dodge durango with 28,000 miles on it. Just recently when i fill the gas tank up and the gas handle clicks off meaning the tank is full, upon removing the handle gas erupts from the tank and pours all down the side of my durango. Nothing has been done yet, but i know there are many other durango owners out there that have this problem. This is a great danger and a recall with a fix should be issued. *tr

Fuel System, Gasoline
Approximately a pint of gasoline spills/shoots from the gas tank filler neck onto the vehicle and the ground when the tank is full during refueling. It appears that the tank vent mechanism has stopped working correctly allowing fuel to shoot out. This is a safety, fire, and environmental hazard.

2008 dodge durango 4x4 slt w/5.7 engine... Gas blowback issue while filling the fuel tank.. Apparently this problem is check-valve related and can only be repaired by changing the tank. I also own a 2005 durango slt 5.7 and it had the same problem. The dealer finally honored the recall and fixed the problem. I am shocked to see the 2008 model still has this same dangerous issue. While dodge and the world know about…

Fuel system "spews" gasoline seconds after automatic shut off valve stops pump. Believe this to be an issue with the filler tube check valve referenced in 2005 dodge during recall. Extremely unsafe. This has happened numerous times. *tr

During the fuel filling of my durango, once the pump clicks off after the tank is full gas will then back flush out of the fill neck on the person filling the vehicle as well as on the ground causing a immediate fire hazard.

On my 2008 durango, the "fuel tank filler tube inlet check valve" has stopped working. This is the same problem that dodge recalled some 2005 durangos for in 2009 (nhtsa campaign #09v003000) at each fill-up, no matter what gas station, when the tank is filled up, and immediately after the pump automatically shuts off - a large amount (1 gal or so) of gas literally "spews" from the gas tank for the next 5 to 10…
