Chrysler did fix my intake valve for fuel.
I do have a problem though with the damage it has left behind from all of that spilled fuel.
I now have a huge rust problem just under the filler valve. Does no one else have this problem

I have a 2005 durango and have a problem with over flow of feul and now it takes about 20 minutes to feul up beacuase the pump turns off every five seconds. I have never recieved a recall about this problem the only recall I have recieved was for the brakes.

It is very dangerous filling this vehichle especialliy in the summer time, it spits out a large quanity of gas when it is filled every thime whether you fill it slow or fast. What can done about it?

my 2005 durango spills gas on me and the ground whenever i fill it all the way up, this is NOT ACCEPTABLE!! Do i have to burn to death or blow up a gas station all because Chrysler doesnt want to assume responsibility for a commom problem regarding their product? I'm not going away quietly until this serious gas problem is rectified. Shame on you Chrysler! Didn't we the "People" bail you out??

My 2005 Durango has the exact same fuel system overflow problem but is not covered by the recall which is unacceptable. I had to pay for the problem to be fixed. All of the Durangos need to recalled for this fire hazard problem.
