    Engine And Engine Cooling · Filler Pipe And Cap · Frontal · Rear Window Wiper/Washer · Tank Assembly

    When filling up the gas tank, the fuel tank filler tube inlet check valve does not function properly. It does not close and gas always spills out. I am afraid that gas spills out while driving. At times,with the keys in the ignition, the car will turn off by itself if i am moving slowly. I bought this truck in 2006. The first year, i brought the car in for stalling on its own. The dealership told me that there was…

    Frontal

    I t-boned a drunk driver who ran a red light with my 2006 dodge durango. I hit hard enough to brake the frame of the vehicle in two places and i hit the dash, but my airbags did not go off. Chrysler said since the airbag light was not on there were no faults in the system. If they did not go off in this accident what would it take for the air bags to go off?
