My 2005 Dodge Durango has a serious malfunction which causes excessive gasoline to spew from the vehicle during filling. This occurs at every fill up of the vehicle and is very difficult to prevent, even once I became aware of the issue. The gasoline exist the vehicle with considerable force the amount can vary but is typically equivalent to ~20 fl oz. Not only is this a obvious fire/explosion risk, but is also a hazardous chemical risk as the gasoline often makes contact with clothes and skin during refueling. I notified Dodge of this issue was given a case # however was notified that Dodge does not consider this an issue and will not fix the issue unless it is a recall. There is a very well documented evidence from the internet to support that this is not an isolated issue and that many other Durango owners are having the same issue. www.youtube.com/watch"V=kbwgvmyy3vm www.youtube.com/watch"V=fs5U63cn-II www.autoobserver.com/2011/02/Chrysler-fuel-spit-back-complaints-rise.html dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen-Durango/190747-gas-fill-overflow-on-my-06-Durango.html ireport.cnn.com/docs/doc-570725 please act on this widespread issue before someone is seriously injured or poisoned.

I bought a used 2005 Dodge Durango limited on 4/3/2012. After the purchase I went to the gas station to fill it up. Gas spilled out of the tank when I attempted to fill the tank. Since then, this has happened two more times. I contacted Chrysler and filed a complaint because this is a serious safety issue. I was told there was a recall on the gas tank filler tubes on some Durangos, but that the recall was not for 2005 models. This is a fearful situation as I bought this vehicle to Transport my grandchildren.

I just purchased this vehicle used from a certified Chrysler dealership. Before finalizing purchase, the dealership filled the gas tank for us. The sales manager noted that he needed to clean up the side of the vehicle--that the gas pump had overflowed. 2 days later when I went to fill up the tank, I had the same issue--the gas tank overflowed. I have looked this issue up online and it seems there was a recall for only a select set of VIN numbers. According to Chrysler, my vehicle was not a part of the recall. Clearly, my vehicle should have been included. It appears the fix to this issue is to replace the gas tank. Also, it is now clear to me that the 2 small rust bubbles near the gas tank are being caused by gas overflowing every time somebody fills up the vehicle. This is a safety issue and should be fixed by the Chrysler corporation.

When my Durango is filled with gas it will not automatically shut off the gas pump but instead gas comes spitting out the fuel opening. This occurs every time that I fill my vehicle up. I do not fill it up anymore because I don't want gas all over my clothes, shoes or down the side of my vehicle and not to mention the puddle of gas that accumulates on the ground. I notified my local Dodge dealer as well as daimler-Chrysler but was told by both that my Durango was not in the recall notice even though it was doing the same thing as what was described in the recall. They advised me that my fuel problem was probably something else all together without even checking it out. I am on a limited budget due to unemployment and I cant afford to have the fuel tank replaced. I don't feel like I should have to replace any part on the fuel system because I truly believe that my inlet valve is faulty due to manufacturers error. In reading over the recalls it states that the problem was fixed and no other vehicles were involved but Dodge doesn't even want to consider that maybe there was a problem with all of the 2005 inlet valves. I just want to feel safe again in my vehicle and not afraid to stop and get gas.

To whom it may concern, I have a 2005 Dodge Durango 5.7L. Recently after filling the fuel tank the fuel "spits back" out of the filler tube and down the side of the vehicle to the ground. I have read numerous complaints online for this exact problems on these and other Chrysler group vehicles. I started a case with Chrysler and took the vehicle to the dealership as they wanted. After the inspection they determined that my vehicle does not fall under a recall for the exact same problem. There is a tsb # 14-001-09 to repair this problem, but, my vehicle is not in the VIN range for the repairs. I feel it is more of a safety issue and an environmental issue than an inconvenience. The dealer states that the fuel tank needs replaced at a cost of over $800 for the tank and 2.5 hours of labor. The fuel tank does not take that long to replace. Is there anything that can be done to get these vehicles repaired" or should we just continue to spill raw gasoline on the ground after every fill up" if I were the only person having these issues I would take ownership of the needed repairs and fix it myself but, as we know there are thousands of vehicles with the same issue. Please contact me if there is any solution to this problem. Thanks.

When refueling, it causes the pump to stop sending fuel and then the fuel gushes out all over the vehicle, nozzle, and ground. Mine is much worse than this example: www.youtube.com/watch?V=B0-_9wg6dw4 I called the dealership in richmond, ky and they said my VIN did not fall in their tsb/recall for this very same symptom.

When I fill up with gasoline, if I do not stop 2 gallons shy of a fill or slow it to a trickle, it will spew about a 1/2 gallon of gasoline down the side of the vehicle. I have done an online search and found Chrysler is recalling close to 25,000 2005 Dodge Durango vehicles as the fuel tank filler tube inlet check valve may not fully close at the end of refueling. This could allow some fuel to escape from the vehicle through the filler neck at the end of refueling. I called and my particular 2005 Durango was no included in the recall while clearly having this same problem. I would like to see if Dodge would expand their recall to those experiencing this exact problem.

The fuel filler spits fuel back out of the tank while filling causing an overflow onto the truck, the ground, and the person filling the fuel tank. Dodge has issued selective recalls for this same issue, but apparently there aren't enough complaints about my particular year to do anything about the problem. (according to Dodge customer service) there are recalls for Durango's both newer and older than mine for the same issue. Apparently a health hazard and a fire hazard isn't a concern to Dodge unless enough people complain...what exactly is that cutoff point?
