2005 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

I OWN A 2005 DODGE DURANGO - EVERY TIME I FILL-UP AT THE GAS STATION, FUEL SPURTS OUT WHEN THE PUMP FINISHES. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE VEHICLE THERE IS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF GAS THAT SPLASHES OUT BEFORE THE PUMP TURNS OFF. IT GOES ALL OVER THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. *TR

FUEL SPIT BACK OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER NECK WHEN FILLING UP GAS TANK. THIS BEGAN OCCURRING IN DECEMBER 2010 AND OCCURS 100% OF THE TIME THE TANK IS FILLED. ESTIMATED .5 - 1 GALLON OF FUEL IS SPILLED EACH TIME. THIS ISSUE IS SIMILAR TO EXISTING NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN 09V003000 / RECALL RECALL 09V-003 /RECALL 05V-034. I CALLED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER AND THEY STATED MY VIN # IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALLS STATED ABOVE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. MY DURANGO HAS A BUILD DATE OF MARCH 2005 AND THE RECALLS ABOVE ONLY COVERS DURANGOS BUILT THROUGH NOVEMBER 2004. I AM ASKING THE INVESTIGATION BE REOPENED TO DETERMINE IF THE EXISTING RECALLS NEED TO BE EXPANDED TO COVER ADDITIONAL BUILD DATES/VIN NUMBERS.

FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO FOR THIS PROBLEM HOWEVER MY VIN # IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. CHRYSLER STATES I MUST PAY TO HAVE THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED WHICH IS NON REFUNDABLE. *TR

THIS VEHICLE ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS SHUTS OFF WHILE MOVING DOWN THE ROAD. STARTED OUT ONLY DURING SLOW SPEEDS, BUT HAS STARTED TO DO IT WHILE ACTUALLY CRUISING DOWN THE ROAD. NO WARNING, JUST TOTAL LOSS OFF STEERING, BRAKES AND ENGINE. LUCKILY IT HAS CRANKED BACK UP AND ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE ROAD. I ALSO HAVE HAD ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE INDICATE THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND THE CAR WILL JUST REV UP AND LOSE POWER. I HAVE HAD EVERYTHING CHECKED (FLUIDS, OIL PUMP, RADIATOR, PLUGS AND WIRES ETC) AND FIND NOTHING WRONG. OF COURSE NOTHING WILL BE WRONG UNTIL THE ENGINE BLOWS, WHICH THEN CAN BE FIXED AT MY EXPENSE. ANOTHER PROBLEM TO ADD TO THE LIST IS THE LIFTGATE ACUATOR STOPPED WORKING WHICH HAS MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO OPEN THE REAR HATCH. THE PLASTIC GEAR IN THE MOTOR IS BROKE BUT YOU HAVE TO BUY THE WHOLE PART TO FIX IT. *LN

MY 05 DODGE DURANGO WITH 5.7 HEMI IS STALLING WITH NO WARNING. NO POWER STEERING, NO POWER BRAKES, NO CHECK LIGHTS COME ON, THE RADIO REMAINS ON BUT THATS IT. I CAN PUT IN PARK OR NUTERAL AND IT COMES BACK ON. THIS NORMALLY HAPPENS WHEN I AM TURNING, THIS IS SO DANGEROUS!! SEARCHING THE WEB I HAVE FOUND THERE ARE QUITE A FEW PEOPLE OUT THERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM I THINK ITS TIME DODGE FIGURES THIS OUT BEFORE SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENS. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS THE PUMP WILL KICK OFF AND GAS WITH SHOOT OUT ALL OVER. *TR

PURCHASE 2005 DURANGO 3 WEEKS AGO. FILLED THE GAS TANK 4 TIMES AND EACH TIME GAS SHOOTS OUT OF THE GAS TANK AFTER FUELING STOPS. GAS WENT ON THE VEHICLE, GROUND AND PERSON FUELING. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW SOON YOU STOP FUELLING. CONTACT CHRYSLER REGARDING THE ISSUE AND KNOWN SIMILAR RECALL FOR OTHER VIN NUMBERS. WAS TOLD IT WASN'T COVERED AND I WOULD NEED TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP AND PAY FOR DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND REPAIR FEE. DID STATE THAT IT MAY BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY THAT WE PURCHASED, BUT WOULD HAVE TO PAY 200 DEDUCTIBLE. I EXPLAINED THAT WE DIDN'T WANT TO PAY FOR A DODGE DEFECT AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WASN'T A DEFECT. I EXPLAINED THAT MANY OTHER VEHICLES - THAT WEREN'T A PART OF THE RECALL- WERE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND THAT IT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO BEFORE SOMEONE CATCHES ON FIRE OR CATCHES A GAS STATION ON FIRE. I WAS IGNORED AND TOLD THAT IF I WANTED IT FIXED, I SHOULD TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP AND BE HAPPY I HAVE A WARRANTY TO PAY FOR IT. *TR
