1 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 09/27/2018

Gas leak on the top of the gas tank, when is almost full.

2 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 05/22/2017

Van idles roughly and stalls immediately following refueling. We do not "top off" the tank but the van stalls within a minute of leaving the gas station. Stalling seems to occur less in colder temperatures but the rough idle is consistant. This seems like the same problem that was covered for 2004-2005 model years by an extended warranty. This poses a safety hazard as the van could stall in traffic causing an accident.

3 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 07/13/2015

Car will stall after putting fuel in. It doesn't matter how much fuel, car will stall with no warning. Usually when pulling into traffic. This has happen several times at different gas stations. Real safety issue since you will not have any power to steer to a safe place. You have to turn car off, than start car for it to restart. Dealership has replace several items but car still stalls. Now I'm told it's the fuel tank which is a costly repair. The problem is a design flaw. The water/ fuel purge value is bad and the only way to fix it, is to replace the fuel tank. I'm looking for a fuel tank but cannot fine one. Even the auto shop I use regularly cannot fine one, only at the dealership which costs three time more than what they would charge. Conspiracy?.

4 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 12/09/2014

When attempting to fill the tank with gas, even on near-empty tank, gas pump clicks off and gas spills out and runs down the body of the car onto the ground. Dodge issued a recall for durango and other Chrysler vehicles for a faulty check valve in the tank but not for my car (caravan). I'd like to lodge a complaint. Dodge tells me that fixing this problem will cost me $1720 for a new gas tank. I believe Dodge should fix it for me because it is dangerous to have gas spill out when attempting to fill.

5 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2012

When I fill the gas tank up, the van stalls after a couple of minutes of driving. At first, I thought that I had gotten some gas with water in it at the gas station. But then it happened again. Then I thought that maybe it had something to do with topping the tank off. So, I don't top it off anymore, but I am still having the same stalling problem.
