2005 DODGE DURANGO: WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE TO FULL THE VEHICLE SPITS GAS BACK AT YOU AND THIS ISN'T A SMALL AMOUNT EITHER. THIS OCCURS MOSTLY WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE TO FULL. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN DECEMBER 2008. THERE IS A RECALL NUMBER: 09V003000 AND 05V034000; CHRYSLER CLAIMS MY VEHICLE HAD THE RECALLED PERFORMED, BUT I THINK THEY NEVER FIXED THE PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT I HAD 3 SEPARATE INCIDENTS, AT 3 DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS IN WHICH I WOULD GO TO FILL THE TANK AND GAS CONTINUES TO OVERFLOW. I CHECKED FOR RECALLS REGARDING THIS AND FOUND THAT CHRYSLER HAS ONE FOR THIS, WHICH IS H45 OR 09V003000. I NOTIFIED CHRYSLER AT THE NUMBER GIVEN (REF #18975878) AND WAS ADVISED THAT EVENTHOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS NOT IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, I COULD GO TO A CERTIFIED DEALER AND PAY THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND IF THEY FOUND THAT I HAD THE DEFECT DESCRIBED, THEY WOULD COVER THE REPAIR. I WENT TO HOLDEN DODGE IN DOVER, DE AND THEY FOUND THE VEHICLE TO HAVE THE EXACT PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL WHERE MY INLET CHECK VALVE STICKS OPEN. WHEN THEY CONTACTED CHRYSLER, HOLDEN DODGE WAS ADVISED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WAS THE 3RD OWNER AND THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE REPAIR. IT SHOULD NOT MATTER IF I WAS THE 50TH OWNER, IT IS THEIR DEFECT!! I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS RECALL WAS FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED IN OCTOBER 2004 AND MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN JANUARY 2005. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THEY CORRECTED THIS MALFUNCTION IN 3 MONTHS SINCE I AM EXPERIENCING THIS DEFECT. I WANT CHRYSLER TO HONOR THE TANK REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY SINCE A CERTIFIED DEALER HAS CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS MY PROBLEM. I OAID THE $80.00 DIAGNOSTIC FEE AS ADVISED AND CHRYSLER DID NOT HOLD TO THEIR PROMISE WHEN I ORIGINALLY CALLED. WAS GIVEN A QUOTE OF $669.00 TO REPLACE HE TANK, WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD. SO RIGHT NOW, I DO NOT FILL THE TANK WITH GAS. PLEASE HELP ME TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED AND HAVE CHRYSLER HONOR THEIR DEFECT!!!! *TR
