2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

WHEN GASSING THE VEHICLE, GAS TANK OVERFLOWS AS THE TANK FILLAS OR WHEN I STOP ADDING GAS. *TR

WHEN MY WIFE FILLED UP THE VEHICLE THE GAS SPLASHED BACK ALL OVER HER. HIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME . WE TOOK IT TOO A DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS ALREADY FIXED BUT IT STILL HAS THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE REVERSED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AT 5 MPH AND AS SHE SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND FUNCTIONED AS NORMAL. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

WHEN FILLING MY TANK, AS SOON AS THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF, FUEL SPEWS OUT OF THE CAR, ON TO GROUND, AND MYSELF IF STANDING NEARBY. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP THIS FROM HAPPENING IS TO NOT FILL THE TANK ALL THE WAY. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING, FUEL EMITTED FROM THE TANK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THE FUEL FILTER CHECK VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND ADVISED THAT THE VIN FAILED TO QUALIFY FOR REPAIRS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V003000 ( FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE UNKNOWN.

EXPERIENCING SAME ISSUE AS REPORTED IN NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER 09V003000 - FUEL-SPIT BACK PROBLEMS CAUSED BY STUCK INLET CHECK VALVES IN THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBES. WHEN FILLING UP THE TANK THE FUEL SPITS OUT. THIS ISSUE OCCURS REGULARLY UPON FILL UP. THE FUEL SPITS OUT ONTO VEHICLE, GAS STATION PAVEMENT, AND CLOTHING. THIS IS AN EXTREME HAZARD TO MYSELF AND TO MY PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE DURING REGULAR FILL UPS. I'VE HAD TO REFRAIN FROM FILLING UP THE VEHICLE TO FULL CAPACITY TO AVOID THIS OCCURRENCE. I CHECKED MY VIN [XXX] FOR RECALL INFORMATION ON DODGE.COM AND MY VEHICLE WAS ERRONEOUSLY NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

WE HAD OUR GAS TANK REPLACED ON OUR VEHICLE ON 7/24/08 AND CHRYSLER THEN HAD A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE FUEL INLET VALVE ISSUE, WHICH WAS THE PROBLEM THAT WE WERE HAVING. WE HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT REIMBURSING US THE COST OF THE GAS TANK DUE TO THE RECALL AND THEY WILL NOT REIMBURSE THIS MONEY, STATING THAT THEY HAVE REVIEWED OUR CASE AND WILL NOT REIMBURSE US. WE WERE NOT AWARE OF THIS RECALL, AS WE DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE. WE HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE FEBRUARY OF 2008. WE JUST BECAME AWARE OF THE RECALL AND THEREFORE CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS SITUATION. DOES THE COMPANY HAVE TO COVER THIS COST DUE TO THE RECALL OF THE GAS TANK AND IF SO IS THERE A TIME LIMIT ON THE RECALL? *TR

THE BOLTS USED ON THE MANIFOLD ARE DEFECTIVE AND BREAK OFF INTO THE HEAD OF THE ENGINE CAUSING DAMAGE. DUE TO THIS, THE MANIFOLD IS NOT TIGHT AND SECURE AND CAUSES EXHAUST FUMES TO BE RELEASED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LAMP ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHIFT HARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE SHIFT SOLENOID WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 110,000.

I HAVE A 2005 DURANGO AND LATELY IT HAS BEEN DYING WITH NO TYPE OF ANY WARNING. IT USUALLY WILL HAPPEN IF I AM TURNING A CORNER, COMING TO A STOP AND THEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE, OR GOING THROUGH PARKING LOTS. SATURDAY I HAD A CAR FULL OF KIDS LEAVING A BASEBALL GAME AND I STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN TO CROSS A BUSY HWY IN MY HOMETOWN AND WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE TO GO ACROSS THE INTERSECTION OF THE HWY MY DURANGO DIED RIGHT THERE WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC HEADED TOWARD US...I COULDN'T STEER AND HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HWY WITH THE KIDS IN MY CAR AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND FRANTICALLY TRY TO START THE CAR HOPING THIS WOULD HELP (WHICH THANKFULLY IT DID THIS TIME). THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE AND EACH TIME IS GETTING MORE AND MORE SCARIER. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR FOR FEAR ONE OF THESE TIMES MY FAMILY AND I WON'T BE SO LUCKY AND WILL END UP BEING KILLED DUE TO THE DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE REVIEWED MANY FORUMS ONLINE AND SEE MANY COMPLAINTS IN THE FORUMS WHERE THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO DODGE'S ATTENTION AND EVEN COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE WITH NOTHING DONE TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED BECAUSE OF THE STALLING OF THE VEHICLE. PLEASE LISTEN TO THE CONSUMERS AND HELP RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TR
