2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

MY VEHICLE SPITS BACK FUEL EVERYTIME I FILL UP. I BELIEVE IT IS BEING CAUSE BY STUCK INLET CHECK VALUES IN THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBES. THERE IS A RECALL ON MY MODEL VEHICLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL IS RQ08005. BUT I AM BEING TOLD BY THE DEALER THAN MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL, HOWEVER I AM HAVING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO THAT SPEWS GAS VIOLENTLY FROM THE GAS TANK ONCE YOU FILL IT UP. THIS IS A KNOW RECALL FROM DODGE BUT MY VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THIS RECENTLY STARTED HAPPENING WITH MY DODGE AND HAS HAPPENED THE LAST 5 TIMES WE PURCHASED GAS. THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE AND PUTS MY FAMILY AND OTHERS IN LIFE IN JEOPARDY. *TR

I OWN A 2005 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED. RECENTLY, EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK, THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL, BUT IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER, A GREAT DEAL OF GASOLINE ERUPTS FROM THE FILLER TUBE OF THE DURANGO. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME I FILL THE VEHICLE AND WITH DIFFERENT GAS PUMPS. RESEARCH REVEALS THAT CHRYSLER ACTUALLY ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM FOR A LIMITED NUMBER OF VIN'S FOR 2005 DODGE DURANGO'S, BUT SINCE MY DURANGO'S VIN DOES NOT MATCH THE RECALL, CHRYSLER WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS A SAFETY ISSUE, POTENTIALLY REQUIRING ME TO PAY A $700 REPAIR BILL. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, BUT CHRYSLER IS FAILING TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S INITIAL RECALL SHOULD BE BROADENED TO COVER ALL DODGE DURANGOS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. SHE NOTICED THAT THE HEAD AND TAIL LIGHTS WERE TURNING ON AND OFF ON THEIR OWN AND THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE HAD A MILDEW ODOR. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THE ODOR WAS IN A TUBE THAT WAS LOCATED ON THE SUN ROOF. THE DEALER STATED THE WATER DRAINED FROM THE TUBE INTO THE INSTRUMENTAL PANEL. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WOULD CLEAN THE TUBE BUT THEY WOULD NOT CLEAN THE MILDEW. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO WRITE A LETTER TO THE MANUFACTURER. SHE STATED THAT THE MANUAL DOES NOT ADVISE THE OWNER ABOUT THE TUBE LOCATED ON THE SUN ROOF; THEREFORE, THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ENTIRE COST OF REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT AT THE DEALER. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WERE 79,885. THE DRAIN TUBES THAT WERE COMING FROM THE SUNROOF WERE CLOGGED. UPDATED 01/12/10. UPDATED 03/18/10 *BF

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO WHICH WAS PURCHASED IN 2008. WHILE ADDING FUEL TO THE VEHICLE, THE FILLER TANK WOULD NOT SHUT OFF AND CAUSED GASOLINE TO SPEW OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THERE WERE NO OPEN RELATED RECALLS. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WOULD ASSIST WITH ANY LIABILITIES FOR THE FAILURE. NO REPAIRS HAD BEEN MADE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000. UPDATED 01/14/10

LOSS OF POWER WHEN GETTING ON FREEWAY. ENGINE CHUGS, ROUGH IDLE, NO POWER TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC ON FREEWAY. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. CHECKED CODES AND FOUND P0308 AND P2099. CHANGED ALL 8 SPARK PLUGS, PLUGS 4, 6, 8, 3, 5, AND 7 SHOW SINGS OF SETTING IN WATER. FOUND OUT DODGE HAS TWO SERVICE BULLETINS TO KEEP THIS FROM OCCURRING, SB 18-006-05 REV A AND 18-024-06. DO WE NEED CRASHES ON THE FREEWAY BEFORE WE CAN FORCE DODGE TO FIX THIS ON ALL 2004 AND 2005 DODGE DURANGO WITH THE 4.7 L ENGINE. *TR

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED (HEMI) SPEWS ABOUT 1 QUART OF GAS OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS. DEALER SAYS MY VIN # ( MFG. DATE 3/05) IS NOT COVERED BY THEIR 1ST OR 2ND RECALL. I CALLED CHRYSLER'S CUSTOMER CARE @ 1-800-853-1403 AND WAS TOLD ALTHOUGH I APPEAR TO HAVE THE PROBLEM ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL, THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING BECAUSE MY VEHICLE NOW HAS 150,000 MILES ON IT. THE PROBLEM STARTED APPROX. APRIL 2009. I HAVE LEARNED TO STAND TO THE SIDE WHEN I FILL UP SO I DON'T GET DRENCHED WITH GASOLINE WHEN I FILL UP ! *TR

ANYTIME I FUEL, MY J2005 DURANGO SPITS A LOT GASOLINE OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW FAST I FUEL OR WHETHER OR NOT I TOP OFF THE TANK. I CALLED DODGE AND WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER/DODGE WILL NOT INCLUDE MY 2005 DURANGO VEHICLE IN THE FUEL TANK RECALL AS NOTED IN YOUR CAMPAIGN NUMBER 09V003000 OR 05V3400, EVEN THOUGH I HAD THE SAME ISSUE THE RECALLS WERE TO FIX. I WAS TOLD MY MILEAGE WAS TO HIGH TO BE INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS IN FEB OF 09 & NOW IT IS EVERY TIME I FUEL. *TR

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE, AFTER THE PUMP HAS SHUT OFF, FUEL WILL SHOOT OUT OF THE FUEL FILL HOLE. THIS HAS DONE THIS REPEATEDLY, AND IS TO THE POINT WHERE IT DOES IT EVERYTIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED UP. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, FUEL IS ALL OVER THE GROUND, SHOES, PANTS AND ANYTHING ELSE NEAR THE FUEL CAP. THIS IS BEGINNING TO CONCERN ME AS THIS IS AN EXTREME FIRE HAZARD. RECALLS FOR THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO WERE RESEARCHED AND OUR PARTICULAR VIN# IS NOT UNDER THE RECALL LIST. NO REPAIRS WERE ATTEMPTED. DATE LISTED BELOW IS THE LAST TIME THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED. *TR
