2006 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

AFTER COMPLETING REFUELING, GAS WILL FLOW OUT OF THE NOZZLE UNDER PRESSURE (ABOUT ONE OR TWO CUPS) AND SPILL ON THE CAR AND CONCRETE. THIS OCCURS ABOUT 1/2 TIMES. *TR

WHILE FILLING MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO EVERYTIME I FILL IT FULL THE NOZZLE KICKS OFF AND WITHIN 1-2 SECONDS GAS COME BACK OUT OF THE TANK COVERING THE NOZZLE AND ANYTHING WITHIN 1-3 FEET IN FRONT OF THE TANK. DROPPING ABOUT 1/2 GALLON OF GAS EVERYWHERE. *TR

JUST PURCHASED A 2006 DURANGO AND FILLED WITH GAS. GAS SPRAYED ALL OVER THE VEHICLE AND GROUND. ONLINE POSTINGS SHOWS THIS TO BE COMMON BUT THAT ONLY 2005 MODELS WERE RECALLED, THOUGH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. AS A VEHICLE OWNER WITH A YOUNG FAMILY THIS CONCERNS ME. AS AN INSURANCE INVESTIGATOR THIS DISTURBS ME. I WILL BE TAKING TO A DEALER IN THE NEXT WEEK OR TWO IN SIOUX FALLS, SD. CAN ANYONE ADVISE ME OF WHAT I SHOULD SAY, SINCE I ANTICIPATE THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING GIVEN IT'S NOT PART OF THE RECALL--IT BEING AN 06 AND NOT AN 05? AS AN INVESTIGATOR MYSELF, I'D LIKE TO KNOW IF I CAN ASSIST IN GATHERING MORE INFORMATION ON THIS SAFETY/ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE? THANK YOU. *TR

FUELING PROBLEM. AT THE END OF FUELING, EXCESS FUEL GUSHES OUT ONTO PERSON AND GROUND. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME VEHICLE IS FUELED. THIS CREATES A FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD. DEALER STATES THAT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. *TR

WHEN PUMPING GAS THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AND THEN THE GAS SHOOTS OUT ALL OVER ME AND THE SIDE OF THE CAR. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I GET GAS AND COVERS ME AND THE SIDE OF THE CAR WITH THE SPILLAGE. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD BECAUSE I BOUGHT IT USED IT WAS NOT SOMETHING THE COMPANY WOULD FIX. I HOPE A FIRE DOES NOT OCCUR BECAUSE OF THIS OVERFLOW PROBLEM. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP GAS TANK GAS OVERFLOWS CREATING A HUGE MESS, AT-LEAST HALF A GALLON COMES GUSHING OUT. THIS HAS DAMAGED THE PAINT AND HAS DOWSED ME WITH GASOLINE NUMEROUS TIMES. *TR

PURCHASED A USED 2006 DODGE DURANGO WITH 21,000 MILES ON IT IN 2008. LAST YEAR 2009 WITH APPROX. 30,000 MILES THE GAS WOULD START SHOOTING OUT OF THE FUEL NECK WHEN I WOULD FILL UP. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL THE TANK UP. IT GETS ON THE CAR, MY CLOTHES AND THE GROUND. NOW I CAN ONLY FILL THE TANK UP PART WAY OR GET SOAKED WITH GAS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THEY NEED TO FIND A WAY TO GET IT FIXED. *TR

FUEL TANK OVERFLOW I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT HAS IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS DEVELOPED A PROBLEM. EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS (EVEN AT DIFFERENT STATIONS), MY GAS TANK OVER FILLS AND GAS IS "GUSHING" OUT AND A GOOD AMOUNT IS LOST. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION DUE TO EVERY TIME I FILL UP GAS RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF MY TRUCK AND CREATES A PUDDLE ON THE GROUND WHICH COULD CATCH ON FIRE! I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND DISCOVER A RECALL ID# 58886 WHICH SEEMS TO DESCRIBE THE SAME EXACT SITUATION I AM HAVING. UNFORTUNATE FOR ME, THIS RECALL WAS FOR 2005 DODGE DURANGO'S AND NOT 2006. I BELIEVE A RECALL SHOULD BE INITIATED FOR THE 2006'S AS I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF POSTINGS IN FORUMS OF MANY 2006 DURANGO'S EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, IT APPEARS TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT AS IT JUST STARTED TWO MONTHS AGO AFTER ABOUT 70,000 MILES. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO UP WITH GAS, IT OVERFLOWS AND SPEWS GAS EVERYWHERE. IT SPILLS APPROXIMATELY 1 PINT OF GAS ONTO THE GROUND AND WHOMEVER IS PUMPING THE GAS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL WOULD OVERFLOW FROM THE FUEL TANK BEFORE THE PUMP SHUT OFF WHENEVER HE FILLED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN INSPECTED OR REPAIRED AT THE TIME OF THE COMPLAINT. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 56,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 54,500.
