EACH TIME I REFUEL MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO, FUEL SPILLS OUT THE FILLER NECK AND AND ONTO THE GROUND. I HAVE TO WARN THE PUMP ATTENDANT THAT FUEL WILL SPILL OUT ON THEM IF THEY ARE STANDING NEARBY. IF MY WINDOW IS DOWN THE VEHICLE WILL FILL UP WITH GASOLINE FUMES. OUR CHILDREN HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE FUMES IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE AFTER LEAVING THE GAS STATION. THE PUDDLE FROM THE SPILLED GASOLINE ON THE GROUND IS AB OUT 1.5 TO 2.5 FEET IN DIAMETER. *TR
