2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

GAS SPURTS AND/OR SPILLS BACK OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND WHEN TRYING TO FILL UP THE GAS TANK. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FILLER TUBE, BUT THAT HAS NOT ABATED THE PROBLEM.*AK

ONCE AGAIN WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 DURANGO SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN THE VEHICLE STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. ONCOMING TRAFFIC JUST MISSED COLLIDING WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. ALSO THERE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE ACCELERATOR STICKING CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO HAVE EXCESSIVE RPM. ALSO THE FRONT END SEEMS TO HAVE SOME TYPE OF PROBLEM, WHILE TURNING THE VEHICLE THE FRONT END KNOCKS AND FEELS AS IF THE WHEELS ARE GOING TO FALL OFF. DAIMLER CHRYLSER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE STALLING PROBLEM AGAIN. THIS IS MY SECOND DURANGO AS THIS WAS THE REPLACEMENT FOR THE 2004 (LEMON) DURANGO WHICH DAIMLER CHRYLSER BOUGHT BACK. CHRYSLER STILL HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE STALLING PROBLEM AS THIS SEEMES TO BE A BIG PROBLEM WITH THE 2004 MODEL YEAR AS WELL. THE DEALESHIP HAD A MECHANIC TEST DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND THE STALLING COULD NOT BE REPRODUCED. THEREFORE NOTHING WAS FIXED AND THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS, HOPEFULLY SOMEONE LOOKS INTO THE CRASH DATA STATISTICS OF HOW MANY DURANGO HAD CRASHES DUE TO VEHICLE STALLING. *AK

ON THE NEW 2005 DODGE DURANGOS V6 THERE COULD BE THE POSSIBILTY OF A ROLL BACK ON A HILL OR INCLINE THE CAR DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE THE GAS WHEN BEING ACCELERATED AND IT FELLS AS IF IT WOULD ROLL BACKWARDS AT ANY TIME I RETURNED MY NEW ONE AND HAD TO TAKE A BIG LOSS ON MY PURCHASE AND THEN I GOT A V8 INSTEAD THEY DID NOT EVEN ACKNOWLEGED THE CAR AS HAVING A PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY SAID IT WAS TO KNEW TO MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENT YET AND HAD TO WAIT AND SEE IF THE MANUFACTURER MAKES A AJUSTMENT OR A RECALL. I JUST WANT SOMEONE TO MAKE NOTE OF THIS PROBLEM IN CASE SOME WAS TO GET HURT BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THE DURANGO I WAS AFRAID AND SCARED WHEN I WENT UP A HILL AND IT DID NOT RESPOND RIGHT WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSE TO TAKE THE GAS AND IT WOULDNT AND I WAS NOT EVEN ON BIG HILL AND I WOULD HATE TO HAVE TO DRIVE IT AROUND ANY MOUNTAIN RESORTS IT COULD BE DANGEROUS IN MY OPION, BUT MY DEALERSHIP ACTED AS IF IT HAD NO PROBLEM AND THAT WAS VERY UPSETTING TO ME THEY ACTED AS IF IT WAS SOMETHING I WAS DOING WROUNG BUT I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY KIND OF PROBLEM OR EVERY EXPERIENCED ANY PROBLEMS LIKE THIS BEFORE. SO PLEASE MAKE NOTE OF THIS I MAY HELP SOMEONE IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE I TALKED TO CHRYSLER REPS AND THEY ACTED LIKE IT WAS NO BIG DEAL AND THAT WAS VERY WRONG TO BE BRUSHED OFF LIKE I WAS NOW I KNOW WHY PEOPLE DO GET HURT BECAUSE OF PEOPLE NOT WANTING TO DEAL WITH IT BECAUSE THEY DONT WANT TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM SO I TOOK A BIG LOSS IN MY PURCHASE BECAUSE I COULD NOT FIND ANY ONE TO HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM OR FIX IT AND I DID NOT WANT TO GET HURT THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME . *AK

RECALL CAMPAIGN 05V034000 CONCERNING FUEL TANK FILLER. FUEL SPILLED OUT OF THE FILLER NECK WHEN REFUELING TO FULL. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED. *AK

WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR SLOWING DOWN, WHILE TURNING THE VEHICLE IT STALLS OUT , DEALERSHIP FLASH A NEW PROGRAM IN THE COMPUTER, HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT A WEEK LATER AFTER THIS WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED , ALSO STALLS WHEN YOU FIRST START THE VEHICLE AND PUT IT INTO REVERSE. *JB

EACH TIME WE FILL THE FUEL TANK OF OUR 2005 DODGE DURANGO THE TANK OVER FLOWS AND FUEL COMES POURING OUT AROUND THE REFUELING NOZZLE AND SPILLS OUT ONTO THE CAR AND ALL OVER THE GROUND. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION IN THAT AT LEAST HALF A GALLON OF FUEL THAT SPIILLS OUT THAT COULD IGNITE AND SPREAD TO THE FUEL TANK AND CAUSE AN EXPLOSION. FORTUNEATELY IT IS WINTER NOW, BUT IN THE SUMMER THE CHANCES OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION ARE MORE LIKELY. THE CAR IS A NEW MODEL FOR DODGE AND I THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED IMMEDIALTEY. I PLAN ON CONTACTING THE DODGE TO IDENTIFY THE PROPLEM WITH THEM. I'M SURE THEY WILL NOT SHARE WITH ME IF OTHER DURANGO OWNERS ARE HAVING A SIMILAR PROBLEM.*AK
