2007 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL SPILLED FROM THE FUEL TANK WHEN FILLED TO CAPACITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THAT THE CHECK VALVE IN THE TANK WAS BROKEN AND CAUSING FUEL TO SPILL. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 33,000.

WHILE FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK AND RELYING ON THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF, GAS WILL SPEW OUT COVERING THE PERSON STANDING THERE, THE GROUND, AND THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. EVEN WHEN APPROXIMATING THE TANK BEING FULL AND TRYING TO CONTROL THE FLOW BY HAND, GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOW JUST NOT WITH THE SAME FORCE. BESIDES THE ANNOYANCE OF BEING COVERED IN AND SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE, THIS DEFECT POSES MAJOR SAFETY RISKS. MAN UP DODGE AND HELP US GET THIS FIXED. *TR

TURN SIGNALS BEGAN MALFUNCTIONING, AND STILL ARE. WHEN APPLYING THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL, NOTHING COMES ON. WHEN APPLYING THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL, THE LEFT COMES ON. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON SPORADICALLY, AND WILL ONLY GO TO A MAXIMUM SPEED OF ABOUT 2 WIPES PER MINUTE WHEN THEY WORK AT ALL. BRIGHT LIGHTS WILL NOT COME ON AT ALL, AND WHEN I DEPRESS THE LEVER TO TURN THEM ON, THE WIPER FLUID SQUIRTS ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THE DOOR LOCKS ALSO INTERMITTENTLY LOCK AND UNLOCK TEN OR FIFTEEN TIMES IN A ROW BY THEMSELVES AT RANDOM TIMES, BOTH IN IDLE AND WHILE IN DRIVE AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. *TR

THE WIPER/TURN SIGNAL MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH FAILED NOT ALLOWING WIPERS TO TURN ON DURING A RAIN STORM AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE TURN SIGNAL NOW ALSO DOESNT WORK PROPERLY. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ACCORDING TO MY GOOGLE SEARCHES ON THIS. *TT

WHEN REMOVING THE NOZZLE AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK TO FULL, QUITE A BIT OF FUEL SPLASHES OUT OF THE TANK. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, NEARLY EVERY TIME I HAVE FILLED UP THE CAR. *TR

WHILE TRYING TO FILL THE FUEL TANK, THERE WAS A GAS OVERFLOW SPEWING GASOLINE ALL OVER MYSELF AND VEHICLE. *TR

I JUST PURCHASED A USED DODGE DURANGO WITH 28,900 MILES ON IT. I DISCOVERED BEGINNING THE DAY I BOUGHT IT THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT GASOLINE INTO THE DURANGO WITHOUT IT DUMPING OUT APPROXIMATELY A LARGE AMOUNT AFTER THE HOSE SHUTS OFF. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER IF IT IS AN ATTEMPT TO FILL THE TANK OR JUST TO ADD ANY AMOUNT OF GASOLINE TO THE VEHICLE. IT ALWAYS DOES IT ABOUT 1 OR 2 SECONDS AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS OFF. THE GASOLINE GOES DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THERE IS ALWAYS A LARGE PUDDLE ON THE GROUND UNDER THE VEHICLE. I AM AFRAID THAT SOMEDAY IT WILL CATCH ON FIRE DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FUEL LOSS. THE IS ALSO ALWAYS A GASOLINE SMELL INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AFTER FILLING THE TANK. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND ALSO REPORTED TO THE NTSB REGARDING THIS ISSUE. WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER ADDING GASOLINE TO THE FUEL TANK, IT SPEW OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL VAPOR VALVE WAS DEFECTIVE, AS A RESULT THE GASOLINE TANK AND FUEL LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE TIE ROD DETACHED FROM THE STEERING KNUCKLE. THERE WERE NO PRIOR WARNINGS BEFORE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN INSPECTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 42,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE INLET CHECK VALVE DOES NOT FULLY CLOSE AT THE END OF REFUELING. IT ALLOWS SOME FUEL TO ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE FILLER NECK. NOW THE GAS CAP LIGHT MESSAGE STAYS ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON. THIS WAS A RECALL FOR THE 2005 DURANGO MINE IS A 2007 IS THIS RECALL STILL ACTIVE FOR MY VEHICLE?
