2007 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

2007 DODGE DURANGO OVERFLOWS FUEL WHEN FILLING GAS TANK. THE VEHICLE HAS BEGUN DOING IT EACH TIME IT IS FILLED UP WITH FUEL, REGARDLESS OF GAS STATION. THIS BEGAN HAPPENING ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO. THE SPILLED FUEL ON THE GROUND PRESENTS FIRE AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS. *TR

GAS COMES OUT OF TOP OF GAS FILL AFTER THE AUTOMATIC PUMP CLICKS OFF. THIS WAS A SIMILAR ISSUE ON THE 2005 DODGE DURANGOS WHICH HAD A LIMITED RECALL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR THE GAS SPEWS OUT OF THE FILL INLET ALL OVER ME AND THE GROUND. *TR

TIRE PRESSURE EXTREMELY LOW SEVERAL TIMES AND THE SENSOR NEVER DETECTED CHANGE IN AIR PRESSURE. MAJOR PROBLEM OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AND TIRE WAS COMPLETELY FLAT AND SENSOR NEVER DETECTED PROBLEMS. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS BLOW OUT AND CAR CRASH. *TR

I OWN A 2007 DURANGO. ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO, I NOTICED THAT WHEN FUELING UP, WHEN THE TANK WAS FULL, GAS WAS BLOWING OUT OF THE FILL VALVE WHILE THE GAS NOZZLE WAS STILL IN THE FILL VALVE. I TALKED TO THE DEALER ABOUT IT, BUT THE SERVICE MANAGER BASICALLY BLEW ME OFF, LIKE IT WAS MY FAULT. I STARTED WATCHING WHETHER THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE TANK UPON FILLING UP MATTERED--IT DID NOT. THE FUEL WOULD SPILL OUT NO MATTER IF THE TANK WAS ON EMPTY, 1/4 FULL, 1/2 OR 3/4 FULL. I TRIED FUELING UP FIRST THING IN THE MORNING THINKING HEAT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT--IT DIDN'T THE FUEL STILL SPEWED OUT. THESE THINGS WERE TRIED AS A RESULT OF STATEMENTS MADE BY THE SERVICE MANAGER. *TR

WHEN YOU PLACED THE SIGNAL ON IT CLICKS VERY QUICKLY AND SOUNDS AS IF SOMETHING IS FRYING, THEN IT SHUTS OFF. WHEN YOU TRY THE SIGNAL AGAIN, IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. *TR
