2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

2005 DODGE DURANGO, HOOD OF VEHICLE CAME LOOSE AND HIT THE WINDSHIELD. *BF OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT # 10-0282-90. *JB

2005 DODGE DURANGO: STARTING AT ABOUT 80,000 MILES, OR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO, WHENEVER WE TOPPED OFF THE FUEL TANK, GASOLINE WOULD SPURT BACK UP OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE AT THE END OF THE FILL WHEN THE PUMP KICKED OFF. THIS IS STILL HAPPENING EVERY TIME WE FILL UP THE TANK. FILLING UP OUR OTHER VEHICLE AT THE SAME PUMP DOES NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. FILLING UP OUR DURANGO AT ANY PUMP RELIABLY REPRODUCES THE PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS OR SLOW TURNS THE VEHICLE STALLS. HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS. *TR

FUEL FILLER NECK ON VEHICLE, SPRAYS GASOLINE DURING FILL UP- ABOUT 1- 2 CUPS EACH TIME. DODGE DEALER REFUSES TO FIX UNDER THE 2 RECALLS- CHRYSLER HAS BASICALLY SAID TOUGH. THIS IS A DANGEROUS AND RECURRING PROBLEM. *TR

WHEN COMPLETED PUMPING GAS INTO THE VEHICLE AND REMOVING THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE, THE GAS COMES SHOOTING BACK OUT OF THE TANK. SUV WAS TAKEN BACK TO PLACE OF PURCHASE AND A NEW GAS TANK WAS INSTALLED IN APPROX. BEGINNING OF OCTOBER 2009.. THE PROBLEM IS NOW OCCURRING AGAIN IN JUNE EACH TIME GAS IS PUMPED INTO THE VEHICLE.. LOOKED UP ONLINE RECALLS ON VEHICLE. THERE IS A RECALL ON VEHICLE FOR THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL FOR FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE: AND CAP.. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER PHONE # I WAS TOLD THE RECALL WAS VIN # SPECIFIC AND MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THAT RECALL. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO WHICH I BOUGHT NEW. ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO, IT STARTED SPILLING FUEL OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE EVERYTIME I FILL IT. THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF BUT A GREAT DEAL OF FUEL SPRAYS OUT ALL OVER EVERYTHING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID ALTHOUGH SOME 2005 DURANGOS WERE COVERED UNDER RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, MINE WASN'T. HE SUGGESTED I FILL THE TANK SLOWER. NOW I KNOW WHY THIS DEALER ISN'T A 5-STAR DEALER. THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE DURANGO WAS ELIMINATED WHEN DODGE DOWNSIZED. *TR

ANY TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK UP ON MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO WHEN THE TANK GETS CLOSE TO FULL THE FUEL DOESN'T STOP AND IT SPILLS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE TRUCK GROUND AND MYSELF. I T HAS HAPPENED AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS SO I HAVE ELIMINATED THE POSSIBILITY THAT IT IS THE PUMP. GAS STATION ATTENDANTS GET UPSET WHENEVER YOU SPILL GASOLINE BECAUSE OF THE CLEANUP PROCEDURE AND I AM ALSO UPSET AS IT'S GAS I HAVE PAID FOR BUT CAN'T USE. THE DEALER TELLS ME MY VEHICLE FALLS OUTSIDE OF THE RECALL H-45 AND THE COST TO REPLACE THE TANK IS IN EXCESS OF $650.00. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL SPILLED OUT WHENEVER HE ATTEMPTED TO FILL THE TANK. HE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL 09V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY) AND HE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIR COSTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE INLET CHECK VALVE WAS INADEQUATE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 98,000.

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGOS FUEL TANK SPEWS FUEL ALL OVER THE PLACE WHEN I AM FINISHING A FILL UP. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME THAT I FILL MY TANK FULL. I SEE THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR 2005 DODGE DURANGOS FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM, BUT THE RECALL DOESN'T INCLUDE MY VIN. IF A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM IT SHOULD TAKE CARE OF EVERY AFFECTED VEHICLE. IT IS NOT SAFE AT ALL! *TR
