2007 DODGE DURANGO 4X4 Complaints

WHILE FILLING OUR 2007 DODGE DURANGO, IT ROUTINELY OVERFLOWS GASOLINE FROM THE FUEL TANK. WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE NEW (AUG. 2007) AND THIS ALSO HAS DONE THIS TO VARYING DEGREES. IT HAPPENS REGARDLESS WHAT STATION WE HAPPEN TO FILL UP AT. ONCE THE PUMP'S AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF KICKS OFF THE FUEL, APPROXIMATELY A 2 SECONDS LATER A GUSH OF FUEL COMES SPEWING OUT OF THE FILLER NOZZLE. UNTIL RECENTLY I THOUGHT THESE OCCURRENCES WERE DUE TO THE PUMPS, BUT I HAVE SEEN VIDEOS AND READ OTHER REPORTS OF EXACT OCCURRENCES ON OTHER LIKE-DURANGOS. THIS IS A VERY HAZARDOUS CONDITION THAT SO FAR DODGE HAS NOT CORRECTED FOR US. *TR

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

VALVE STEM ON WHEEL CORRODED AND THREADED PORTION BROKE OFF WHEN REMOVING PROTECTIVE CAP. INNER SPRING-VALVE THEN CAME OUT AND ENTIRE TIRE DEFLATED. 1 OF THE OTHER 3 ALSO LOOKS CORRODED. *TR

GAS SPEWS BACK OUT OF THE FILLER NECK WHEN FULL ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, THE UNAWARE PERSON FILLING, AND THE GROUND, CAUSING AN ENVIRONMENTAL AND FIRE HAZARD. *TR

WHEN YOU FILL UP THE GAS TANK AND THE NOZZLE SHUTS OFF, GAS SHOOTS BACK OUT OF THE FILL TUBE CONNECTED TO THE TANK. *TR

2007 DODGE DURANGO. ALL 4 VALVE STEMS, METAL IS CORRODED. ONE VALVE STEM BROKEN OFF AT THE THREADS WHEN FILLING TIRE WITH AIR. TIRE DEALER SAYS THEY KNOW OF ISSUES WITH CORRODING ON VALVE STEMS WITH TPMS BUT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL/TSB... I CANNOT PUT AIR IN ONE TIRE. *TR

2007 DODGE DURANGO (APPROX 42K) EQUIPPED WITH TPMS TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM. ALL 4 VALVE STEMS, METAL IS CORRODED. ONE VALVE STEM BROKEN OFF AT THE THREADS WHEN FILLING TIRE WITH AIR. DEALER SAYS THEY KNOW OF ISSUES WITH CORRODING ON VALVE STEMS WITH TPMS BUT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE. I CANNOT PUT AIR IN ONE TIRE. THIS COULD ALSO BE LEAKING AND WILL CAUSE TIRE TO BE FLAT OR BLOW OUT. REPLACEMENT OF TPMS UNIT IN ORDER TO FIX ALL 4 OR GO TO NORMAL VALVE STEMS WITH NO TPMS. *TR

WHEN FUELING, THE VEHICLE OVERFLOWS, THE GAS PUMP WON'T SHUT OFF AND GAS SPEWS FROM THE FILLER NECK. HAPPENS ALMOST ALL THE TIME WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK FULL. COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD AND ALSO BAD FOR THE PAINT. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHEN THE RIGHT FRONT TIE ROD BROKE AT THE KNUCKLE. THERE WAS NO WARNING, ABNORMAL TIRE WEAR OR DAMAGE PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS ON A EIGHT LANE HIGHWAY AND WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD WITH OUT A CRASH. THE WHEEL SUSTAINED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE FROM THE LOOSE TIE ROD END. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK THINKING THE PUMP WILL STOP ON ITS OWN, IT DOES NOT. GAS FLIES OUT OF THE TANK DOWN THE SIDE AND ALL OVER THE GROUND. NO WAY TO STOP THIS, NO MATER HOW FAST U FILL UP IT STILL DOES THIS. THIS IS DANGEROUS SINCE THEIR IS A STOP IN THE TANK FOR THIS PURPOSE SO IF YOUR IN A ACCIDENT FUEL DOES NOT SPILL. *TR
