1 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 10/28/2018

My vehicle had problems just after the 1 year mark. In October 2018 filled the gas tank and began to pull away from the pump, at this time the car was in "drive" but down-shifted into what felt like neutral. An error code ran across the dash saying "push p to park, select desired gear". I put it in park and turned it off then on again. This happened twice but it still did it. I parked the car, turned it off and had it towed- dealer said it was fine, and wasn't throwing any codes and let me drive away. Not 5 miles down the road and it started smelling of gas and was riding very rough and backfiring. I pull over to the nearest next dealership and they notice that gas is pouring out the back of the car. Diagnosed as an 'overfilled charcoal canister' stating that I overfilled the gas tank. Was repaired, I had to submit to have it covered under warranty. I get the vehicle back and not 2 months later the exact same issue after filling tank with gas. Gas is pouring out the back, gas gauge is going crazy rising and falling and finally dropping off as gas pours out the back. Had it towed again and repaired at a 3rd dealership. Given back to me and told it was covered under warranty but that we overfilled the tank. Happened a third time not 3 months later and finally the entire gas tank was replaced. Brought it home and was told I should be able to fill it, as the first two times it was likely a sensor in the gas tank causing the issues. The car smelled of gas again when I stopped to fill the tank on the way back from the dealership. My husband pulled the seats back and had to soak up the overflow from the canister himself- I don't fill the tank all the way anymore for fear of a fire. My daughter complains of headaches when in the car- wondering if its related to the pooling gas under her carseat. Very concerned that this is not being taken seriously by Dodge.
