I have a 2005 Dodge Durango that was manufactured 03/2005. I have a fuel tank that is malfunctioning just like what was referenced in your case #: 09V003000. I have been in contact with the local dealership and the national Dodge website and they tell me that the recall does not effect my vehicle. However, the recall is for the exact same thing. They are wanting 400 to replace this tank. I feel that it is a huge hazard. Everytime I get gas it spits back at me and all over the ground some times a very large amount.

NHTSA recall # 09V003000 / 2005 Dodge Durango / my Dodge Durango has exhibited the same problems as vehicles covered under recall # 05V-034. The problem is related to fuel spilling out of the filler neck after the pump has shut off. I discovered that Chrysler had expanded the recall to include additional vehicles built between 10/13 and 11/30/2004. The recall states that process modifications were implemented on 11/24/04 to address the spit back problem and they believe that the process changes would have been incorporated in all vehicles built at the assembly plant as of 11/30/04. I checked my VIN number and the date the vehicle was manufactured (01/05), upon discovering it did not include vehicles built after 11/04, I contacted a local dealer and explained the problem I was encountering. Contacted Chrysler directly, after explaining the issue with the first level representative I was transferred to the next level (ref # 18546515). After discussing the issue in depth she finally agreed to have my local dealer evaluate the problem and if it was determined to be an issue with the fuel tank/check valve that Chrysler would assist in paying for the repairs. She stated that if that was the issue the cost could be close to $1000 for the repair and I would be responsible for approximately $400. I insisted that if it was the same issue as covered in previous recalls that Chrysler should cover the total cost of the repair. The dealer's invoice clearly states the problem was found to be the fuel tank check valve was not closing back. The dealer also stated that the diagnosis and repairs were exactly the same as covered under the recalls. They replaced the fuel tank, check valve and O-ring. My portion of the repair was $326. I feel Chrysler should reimburse me for my out of pocket the repair.

Engine stalled about 5 different times while slowing down. She started vehicle and it died while she was sitting still. Dealer did not know what the cause of the problem was, and they didn't know if it will be covered by the warranty. Manufacturer has not been contacted yet. Update 11/15/05.....contact complained about vehicle stalling. Manufacturer's recall of fuel tank, and airbag light problem. In regard to stalling, the contact was told by the dealership that the stalling problem could not be repeated by service technicians and that no codes were available after computer diagnosis.

Also, they told the contact that the idle wasn't correct and they adjusted it appropriately. Concerning the fuel tank recall, after recall service was performed, the fuel tank was replaced. Finally the driver's side airbag light would come on and stay on during vehicle operation. The dealership investigated it and found a wire problem which they repaired.

Ever since I purchased my 2005 Dodge Durango in may, 2005, I have been unable to completely fill the gas tank. While attempting to fill the tank, the gas gets backed up in the stem to the tank, and it shuts off the gas pump. This makes it virtually impossible to tell when the gas tank is truly full or if it is just backed up in the filler stem to the tank. I brought the vehicle in for service to the dealer where I purchased it, and was told there was an "E-vamp" leak in the tank. This was fixed and I was told the tank was also fixed and ready for normal filling. As soon as I left the dealer, I tried to fill the tank, but it was not fixed. I immediately informed the service person, who was still there. I again brought the vehicle in for service, and the fuel tank was replaced. (after bringing the service technician for a ride to the gas pump so he could see what the problem was.) the vehicle was given back to me with a new fuel tank, and the problem still exists.
