2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING THE FUEL TANK, GASOLINE WOULD SPILL BACK OUT FROM THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THEY ADVISED HIM THAT THE FUEL TANK FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACTS VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMAPIGN 05V034000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP) PRIOR TO THE RECENT FAILURE HOWEVER, THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 120,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 176,000.

EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK, THE GASOLINE SPIT OUT AT THE END OF FILLING. *TR

THIS IS GETTING RIDICULOUS AND IT SEEMS THAT NO ONE IS WILLING TO TAKE OWNERSHIP FOR A FAULTY SYSTEM THAT IS OBVIOUSLY DANGEROUS. WHAT I FOUND TO BE ABSURD IS HOW MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE POSTED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, RECALLS HAVE BEEN MADE FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND STILL NO ACTION. I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO AND EACH AND EVERY TIME I FILL MY TANK THE PUMP WILL STOP BUT AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF GAS WILL OVERFLOW. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS MUST BE ENTERED BEFORE SOMEONE TAKES ACTION OR ARE MANUFACTURERS WAITING FOR A CATASTROPHIC MISHAP TO GET THEIR ATTENTION. FUMES COULD EASILY GET UNDER THE VEHICLE, AND FIND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND IGNITE. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE, THE TIME IS NOW. TAKE RESPONSIBILITY! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH AND COMPLETING A RIGHT TURN, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING.

WHEN I FILL MY GAS TANK I GET A VERY STRONG GAS SMELL, THE CAB FILL WITH GAS FUMES. YOU CAN ONLY SMELL GAS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE I BROUGHT IT IN 3 TIMES TO BE LOOKED AT BUT NOT ISSUES CAN BE FOUND. THE ODOMETER SAYS "GAS CAP" BUT THE DEALER FINDS NO CODE ISSUES. THERE IS CLEARLY A ISSUE WITH MY DURANGO BUT NO ONE IS WILLING TO HELP ME WITH IT!! DODGE SAID THAT MY DURANGO IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL NOTICE AND THEY ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO HOOK IT UP TO THERE COMPUTER FOR $100.00 BUCKS! I HAVE HAD THIS DURANGO SINCE 12/2212 AND HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE PRIVATE DEALER THAT SOLD IT TO ME HE IS NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I AM ONLY GETTING 7-10 MILES PER GALLON THAT IS CRAZY. IM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. *TR

MY GAS TANK HAS OVERFLOWED TWICE SINCE DECEMBER 22ND WHEN I WAS FUELING THE VEHICLE . WHILE FUELING THE GAS CAME POURING OUT WHERE YOU FILL IT . I HAVE READ THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY INFO ON THIS NOR DO I KNOW IF IT WAS EVER ADDRESSED I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS. AND WHERE I BOUGHT IT IS NO LONGER IN BUSINESS. *TR

UPON FILLING THE GAS TANK, IT HAS STARTED TO OVERFLOW AND SPRAY GASOLINE ONCE IT GETS FULL. *TR

THE MECHANISM ON THE SEATBELTS THAT LOCKS THE SEATBELT DURING A SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH IS MADE OF PLASTIC. THEY BREAK EASILY ESPECIALLY AFTER A FEW YEARS OF USE. THERE ARE 7 SEAT BELTS IN MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THREE OF THEM BROKEN IN THIS FASHION. I CONTACTED DODGE WHO REFUSED TO ASSIST ME IN HAVING THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. *TR

WHILE FUELING VEHICLE, THE GAS TANK WILL OVERFLOW AND SPRAY FUEL ALL OVER THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, AND ON PERSON IF CLOSE. WHEN PUMP KICKS OFF, THE FUEL WILL OVERFLOW FROM FILLER NECK. *TR
