2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

WHEN FUELING CAR IF ALLOWED TO FILL IT FULL FUEL SPILLS OUT BACK AT YOU EVERYTIME. *TR

I OWN A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHENEVER THE VEHICLE RUNS THROUGH A MODERATELY SIZED RAIN PUDDLE AND WATER IS SPRAYED UP UNDER THE CAR THE POWER STEERING FAILS BUT RETURNS TO SERVICE A SHORT TIME AFTER. THIS HAS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY AND THE DEALER HAS BEEN CALLED AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM BUT SAY NOTHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT IT. IT IS TRULY A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ALONG WITH MY WIFE AND SONS. I LIVE IN TAMPA, FL AND RAINFALL IS QUITE ROUTINE (APPROX 52 INCHES/YR) AND PUDDLES CANNOT BE AVOIDED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE ADDING FUEL TO THE GAS TANK HE NOTICED THAT THE GAS WOULD SPILL BACK OUT. HE THOUGHT HE WAS ADDING MORE FUEL TO THE VEHICLE THAN IT NEEDED. SIX MONTHS LATER, HE NOTICED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED MORE FREQUENTLY. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND THEY STATED THAT THE GAS TANK NECK COULD BE DEFECTIVE. HE NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER AND THEY ADVISED HIM THAT HIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL 09V003000 FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO STATED THAT HE COULD TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED AND THEY WOULD PAY FOR THE REPAIR, AS LONG AS HE PAID THE DEDUCTIBLE. THE VEHICLE WILL BE REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

WHEN FUELING MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO JUST AFTER FUELING IS COMPLETE AND PUMP SHUTS OFF, FUEL SPRAYS BACK THROUGH FILLER NECK. THERE IS A CURRENT RECALL THAT IS TO REPAIR THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON OTHER 2005 DODGE DURANGO, HOWEVER, THE DEALER SAYS MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. THERE IS EVEN A CASE NUMBER LISTED ON YOUR SITE. RQ08005. I HAVE CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AND CHRYSLER AND THEY HAVE OFFERED TO DO NOTHING MORE THAN CHARGE ME TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL OVERFLOWS WHEN FUELING MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO. IT USED TO HAPPEN ONCE IN A WHILE BUT NOW IT HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL BUT MY DEALER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING HE CAN DO SINCE MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. *TR

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO HAS GAS SPILL OUT WHEN IT IS FILLED UP. THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT IS TO NOT COMPLETELY FILL THE TANK. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL GAS STATIONS. WHY IS DODGE NOT HONORING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THERE IS A FIRE AND SOMEBODY DOES GET HURT? *TR

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO HAS GAS SPILL OUT WHEN IT IS FILLED UP. THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT IS TO NOT COMPLETELY FILL THE TANK. THE DEALER IS GOING TO DIAGNOSE IT AND IF THEY SUGGEST REPLACING THE FUEL TANK THEN I WILL HAVE TO PAY A $100 DEDUCTIBLE SINCE I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE STATED MY VIN WAS NOT IN THE RECALL AND REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT IT IS THE SAME ISSUE THEY RECALLED 18,000 2005 DURANGO'S FOR THEY SAID IT SHOULD BE DONE AT MY EXPENSE. THIS ISSUE OCCURS AT ANY GAS STATION I GO TO ANY TIME I TRY TO FILL THE TANK. WE HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALER IN THE PAST FOR THIS ISSUE WHEN IT OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY AND NOTHING WAS DONE AT THAT TIME AS IT DID NOT OCCUR WITH THE DEALER. *TR

I PURCHASE MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO SXT IN EARLY DECEMBER OF 2009. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 52,663 MILES ON IT. I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WHEN FILLING MY DURANGO WITH GAS. WHEN I FILL IT UP IT DOESN'T SHUT OFF CAUSING GAS TO SHOOT OUT EVERYWHERE, OVER MY CAR, GROUND AND MYSELF ONCE GETTING IT IN MY FACE. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THAT IT MAY HAVE BEEN JUST A PUMP ISSUE AT THE GAS STATION, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT 3 OTHER STATIONS AS WELL. I READ ON MANY DIFFERENT FORUMS THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. I WAS WONDERING WHAT INFORMATION OR STEPS I NEED TO TAKE AS THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. I APPRECIATE ANY INFORMATION YOU COULD HAVE FOR ME. *TR

WHEN FILLING TANK WITH FUEL, THE PUMP WILL CLICK OFF WHEN "FULL". THEN APPROXIMATELY 0.5 SEC AFTER PUMP KICK OFF FUEL WILL FLOW OUT FROM AROUND PUMP NOZZLE AND OVERFLOW HOLE IN THE PUMP HANDLE BOOT. WHEN IT FIRST OCCURRED IT WAS VERY LITTLE FUEL. NOW IT WILL SPILL OUT APPROXIMATELY 2 CUPS OF FUEL. *TR

2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT/HEMI. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, THE PUMP HANDLE WILL STOP, THEN THE TANK FILLS AND ABOUT 1 OR 2 CUPS OF GASOLINE BLOWS OUT OF THE TANK THROUGH THE FILLER NECK ONTO ME, THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. YOUR WEBSITE SHOWS A RECALL FOR THIS, HOWEVER DODGE AND THE DEALERSHIPS SAY IT IS NOT FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIRED YET DUE TO THE COST. I HAVE BEEN COVERED IN GASOLINE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO MY VEHICLE AS WELL. THE GAS TANK RECALLS ARE EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON W/ MY VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL MECHANICS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE. IN ADDITION TO SAFETY A FUEL SPILL IS NOT LEGAL AND MUST BE CLEANED. *TR
