2006 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

THE GASOLINE SPEWS OUT AT YOU BEFORE THE GAS TANK IS FULL. SO IF YOU ARE UNAWARE, NOT PAYING ATTENTION, OR JUST COMPLETELY FORGET YOU END UP IN A BATH OF GASOLINE. SO NOW POSSIBLY YOUR SHOES CLOTHES AND HANDS HAVE GAS ON THEM. HOPEFULLY YOU DON'T PLAN ON LIGHTING A CIGARETTE AFTERWARD. (I DON'T SMOKE) BUT I DO CARE NOT TO WEAR GASOLINE OR HAVE TO BREATHE THE FUMES IN MY REALLY NICE MOPAR. SUPER PROBLEMATIC FOR THE OWNERS AFFLICTED WITH THIS PROBLEM I HOPE CHRYSLER DOES THE RIGHT THING AND RECALLS THE AFFECTED VEHICLES.

BOUGHT A USED. 2006 DODGE DURANGO. FIRST TIME WIFE FILLED TANK FUEL ERUPTED FROM FILL SPOUT COVERING HER HEAD TO FOOT IN GAS. NEXT WEEK I TRIED FILLING TANK. AGAIN FUEL SPEWED FROM THE FILLER NECK. THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY THEN BOOM. 1/2 TO 1 GALLONS OF GASOLINE IS ON THE GROUND, SIDE OF VEHICLE AND MYSELF. WE CAN ONLY PUT PARTIAL TANKS OF GAS IN AT A TIME. AS WITH ALL REFUELING TRIPS THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, ENGINE OFF, SITTING BESIDE THE PUMP. THE 2005 DURANGOS WERE RECALLED. WHY NOT THIS YEAR ALSO. DEALER CLAIMS WARRANTY WORK WAS COMPLETED AND WILL ONLY LOOK AT VEHICLE IF THEY CHARGE A FEE. THIS IS A VEHICLE " CHECKED OUT " BY DEALER BEFORE SALE. APPARENTLY THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT OUR SAFETY OR THE HAZARD TO THE ENVIRONMENT WHEN CLOSE TO A GALLON IN FUEL GETS DUMPED ON THE GROUND EVERY TIME IT'S FILLED.

UPON FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL IT WILL SPIT BACK A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF FUEL AFTER PUMPING HAS STOPPED FULL. ITS AMAZING THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE 2005 DURANGO FOR THIS PROBLEM AND NOT THE 2006. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS THE SCALE OF THE CONTINUED FUELING PROBLEM ON DURANGOS. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN OCCURRING OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS.
