Gasoline splashback on 2005 Dodge Durango, this has happened several times regardless of how the gas is pumped by hand or automatically shut off.

I own a 2005 Dodge Durango. On several occasions fuel spilled from the gas tank opening during the end of my regular fill-ups. I immediately thought it was because of the pump but none of the other customers had that problem. This has happened about 5 times. I will be calling the manufacturer concerning this problem and pray for a resolution I will not have to pay for.

On 03-08-2011 while putting fuel into my 2005 Dodge Durango I was soaked in gas at the end of the fueling. My wife advised me this has happened before at different gas stations, some fuel escaping through the filler neck at the end of refueling and spraying persons fueling the vehicle, as well as spilling on the vehicle and the ground. I checked with NHTSA and found out that there are 2 recalls on 2005 Dodge Durango for this exact issue (NHTSA campaign id numbers 09V003000 and 05V034000). Per insructions on those recall summaries I've contacted Chrysler at 1-800-853-1403 on 03-09-2011. I've advised them of the problem with my vehicle and the fact that there are two recalls on the same make, model, and year as my vehicle. Chrysler assigned me a case number 20513614 and a case manager identified as rosie with phone number 1-800-763-8422, ext. 66049. This case manager said that while 2005 Dodge Durango have been recalled due to the fuel spilling at the end of refueling, my vehicle didn't have the right VIN number to be recalled. The case manager told me to set an appointment with a Dodge dealer, steve white Dodge in hickory, nc, to see what was causing the fuel spill. On 03/15/2001 my vehicle was checked at the Dodge dealership. It was determined by this Dodge dealer that the fuel does escape at the end of the fueling and fits the description on NHTSA recalls 09V003000 and 05V034000. However, I would have to pay myself for the repair since my VIN doesn't match. I've contacted the Chrysler case manager. I've asked her specifically if the problem with my vehicle matches the ones that have been recalled. The case manager acknowledged that it was the same same problem, same make, model, and year, but not the right VIN. She offered to reimburse only $140 from my repair bill. Chrysler should reimburse the whole repair bill, since there are recalls on this vehicle.

I own a 2005 Dodge Durango VIN [xxx]. when refueling the vehicle, fuel over flows onto the vehicle and ground at the end of the fueling process every time you fill the tank. My research has shown there was a recall under NHTSA campaign id number: 09V003000 (fuel system, gasoline:storage:tank assembly). The manufacturer was contacted and advised that the VIN was not included in the recall and that I would need to bring the vehicle to an authorized service station and pay for the diagnostic charge without reimbursement. In addition, they would not guarantee to pay for the repair, only the possibility of helping with payment. Felt this was unsatisfactory due to Dodge already recalling some 2005 Dodge Durangos and the apparent continuation of this problem outside of the acceptable VIN number range. No further assistance was offered. The vehicle was not repaired. I am unable to fill the fuel tank with gasoline and could only refuel with small amounts of gasoline at a time. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Every time I fill up the fuel tank on my 2005 Dodge Durango, at least a gallon spills out of the filler neck when it has finished fueling. This could easily start a fire or explosion and could seriously injure people. Chrysler has refused to look at the vehicle stating that it is not covered in a previous recall for the exact same issue.

My 2005 Dodge Durango spills gas every time we fill it up. It has been doing this for three years. Dodge has a recall for this, but my vehicle is not part of it. This is very dangerous. If I fix it myself, it will cost over $700.

- Plainfield, IL, USA

I have a 2005 Dodge Durango and when the fuel tank is filled up, before the auto shut off engages on the fuel pump, the fuel tank spews fuel back out of the inlet on the vehicle. This occurs nearly every time the fuel tank is filled up where we rely on the auto shut off to signal when the tank is full. This causes fuel to spill onto the ground and down the side of my vehicle, and at times onto myself or my wife, which can be a safety hazard. No parts have been replaced as the dealer quoted several hundred dollars and stated although there is a recall for this exact issue, the recall is VIN specific and ours does not qualify.

- Martinsville, IL, USA

I have two safety concerns about our 2005 Dodge Durango. First, during the end of fuel filling, as the vapor lock on the pump engages and shuts the valve to the pump off, gas immediately spews from the filler neck, as if the tank depressurized. It has happened to me three (3) times now. This is a major safety concern! the result could cause a fire resulting in serious injury or worse! the other issue that I have a major concern with is that the vehicle stalls during low speed turning. If at an intersection and attempting a turn, the vehicle may stall and cause an accident. This has happened to me more than ten (10) times in the eight months that we have owned the vehicle. This too is a major concern as it can also cause serious injury or worse to not only myself, wife, young children, and others that may become involved in an accident if it where to happen! I have reported the issues to Dodge and their response to me is to have the vehicle diagnosed. I do plan on doing this however, while researching the issues online, I have found a many numbers of vehicles (same year, make, and model) with the exact same issues. This leads me to believe that this is not isolated and should be cause for safety concerns throughout the nation for the vehicles/owners.

While fueling the vehicle, gas leaks out onto the undercarriage without exiting out of the top of the fuel tank filler neck and well before the tank is full. It is as though something internal to the fuel neck is restricting the incoming fuel and forcing it out. The leaking only occurs during fueling. The fuel never comes out of the top of the filler neck, the only indicator of a problem to the person who is fueling the vehicle is a large pool of gas under the vehicle and the strong smell of gasoline.

- Manassas, VA, USA
