Dodge durango 2008 with hemi 5.7 l engine stalls at low speeds after i fill up the gas tank. This happens every time i fill up the tank now. I have read on consumer forums that other dodge trucks and car owners have also reported this problem. It is dangerous, as the car stalls without any warning. This happens multiple times after fillup and after driving 20 miles or so the problem goes away. It is very dangerous…

Vehicle was stationary at a filling station fuel pump with engine off. When the filling pump nozzle shuts off back pressure from the vehicles fuel tank forces a stream of gasoline back out of the fill neck. This happens every time the fuel tank is filled. I have read that this is a common problem in several chrysler vehicles caused by a faulty check valve in the fuel tank.

It soaks the side of the car and your clothes and shoes are drenched in gasoline!! From my online research, this problem has been…
