2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

2005 DODGE DURANGO SLT 5.7L HEMI... WHEN FILLING UP WITH FUEL, CHECK VALVE DOES NOT SEEM TO CLOSE PROPERLY CAUSING FUEL TO SPRAY OUT ALL OVER THE TRUCK, PUMP, AND PERSON REFUELING. IT OCCURS AT EVERY FILL UNLESS YOU FILL THE TANK ONLY TO 3/4 FULL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO FILL THE GAS TANK, FUEL WOULD SPILL BACK OUT. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE FAILED. THE DEALER STATED THAT HIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 09V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY). THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 51,000.

PERTAINING TO THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO: WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, IT JUST SHUTS OFF, THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, YOU LOOSE POWERSTEERING, WHICH PUTS YOU IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. I'M NOT SURE IF ITS ELECTRICAL OR MECHANICAL RELATED. I HAVE VISITED A FEW RECALL SITES AND VARIOUS PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN CHECKED OUT FOR MANY THINGS TO INCLUDE SPARK PLUGS. I THINK IT MAY BE THE ELECTRIC CONTROL MODULE, BUT THAT'S JUST AN OPINION. I FEEL THIS SITUATION NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY DODGE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR EVEN KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT. *TR

CLICKING NOISE UNDER HOOD, WAS TOLD BY DODGE DEALERSHIP THAT IT HAD TO DO WITH THE EXHAUST OR EXHAUST MANIFOLD. WAS TOLD AT TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS THAT IT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. ACCORDING TO SEARCHES, IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. NOISE GETS LOUDER THE MORE YOU ACCELERATE. *TR

FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS AND DOES NOT SHUT GAS PUMP OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. EVERYTIME WE FILL THE GAS TANK UP, GAS SPEWS OUT VIOLENTLY ALL OVER THE GROUND AND ONTO THE PERSON FUELING THE VEHICLE. SEEMS PRETTY DANGEROUS TO ME. GAS TANK RECALL IS PARTIALLY IN EFFECT FOR CERTAIN VIN NUMBERS BUT NOT ALL.

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO IS SPILLING FUEL FROM THE FILLER NECK UPON FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT MY DURANGO IS NOT INVOLVED WITH A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE USING MY VIN#. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNFAIR. MY DURANGO HAS A MANF DATE OF 10/04. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT DODGE NEEDS TO FIX REGARDLESS IF AFFECTED TANK RELIEF VALVE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED AT A CERTAIN DATE. DODGE NEEDS TO EXPAND THE MANF DATES FOR THESE RECALLS AFFECTING THE TANK RELIEF VALVE ISSUE. IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX AN ISSUE SUCH AS THIS DUE TO THE SAFETY, FIRE AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS THAT OCCUR EACH AND EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK. *TR

ENGINE STALLS RANDOMLY AND IN DIFFERENT DRIVING CONDITIONS BUT MOSTLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP RPM WILL DROP OFF ALL THE SUDDEN THEN ENGINE DIES IT ALSO LOOSES POWER WHEN ACCELERATING AND SURGES PRETTY HARD WHEN THIS HAPPENS THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE ON 2/25/09 FIRST TIME WAS ON 3/11/09 AND THE SECOND TIME WAS 3/21/09. *TR

WHENEVER I FILL UP THE GAS TANK THE GAS WILL COME SPEWING OUT AFTER IT FILLS UP. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED IT GOT ALL OVER MY CLOTHES, SHOES AND SIDE OF THE CAR. THOUGHT IT WAS A FLUKE WITH THE STATION, BUT IT HAPPENS EVERYWHERE I GO. HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL UP. TOOK IT TO A DEALER BECAUSE I HEARD ABOUT A RECALL BUT WAS TOLD MINE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AND WOULD COST NEARLY 800 DOLLARS TO FIX. I DON'T THINK SO. THIS KIND OF PROBLEM SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. PHONED "CUSTOMER SERVICE" AT DODGE/CHRYSLER AND WAS ALSO GIVEN THE SAME STORY ABOUT IT NOT BEING IN THE RECALL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP GAS TANK FUEL BACKFLOWS OUT , SPLASHING ON MY FACE AND CLOTHES. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS EVERY TIME YOU TRY TO FILL THE TANK FULL. I HAVE NOT YET FIXED THE PROBLEM WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT WAS A INLET CHECK VALVE/ FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY. THE COST OF THE REPAIRS IS AROUND $1000 . I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY CHRYSLER!!!! *TR

GAS GUSHES OUT OF THE FILL NOZZLE OF MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO LTD SPRAYING THE VEHICLE, GROUND, GAS PUMP AND MYSELF WITH GASOLINE. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED , JAN. 3, 2009, AND THIS HAS OCCURRED EVERYTIME THAT I FILL UP WITH GAS, NO MATTER HOW SLOWLY THE DELIVERY RATE OF THE PUMP. I CONTACTED DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS TOLD THAT SINCE THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED IN DECEMBER OF 2004 AND MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BY ANY SUBSEQUENT INCIDENTS AND WERE NOT INTERESTED IN ANY ENVIRONMENTAL OR SAFETY ISSUES THAT I WAS HAVING. *TR
