The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 129,494.

2 Other Fuel System Tank Mounting problem

Failure Date: 01/17/2017

When fillling the gas tank a large amount of gasoline spits out after the fuel nozzle clicks off. I first thought is was a defect with the fuel nozzle. But it continues to happen each time I fill up. This is very dangerous and could cause serious injury or death in the event of a fire or explosion. There are severa videos on ytube which clearly show this problem. When this occurs the vehicle is stopped at the service station with the engine and ignition is off. I have researched and found the Chrysler has a recall on this problem but VIN is not included. The recall should include all vehicles that have this problem. Pleas advise on what can be done to get Chrysler to rectify this dangerous problem at their expense. Thank you. This problem first occurred in November 2016 and has continued each time I fill up.

Fuel tank overflows when being filled- doesn't auto stop the pump like it should. This happens whenever the car's gas tank is filled unless the amount of gas needed is estimated lower and the pump is stopped manually.

4 Other Fuel System Tank Mounting problem

Failure Date: 11/16/2015

When filling the gas tank, a large amount of fuel always shoots out of the filler neck and spills onto vehicle, ground, and objects around vehicle. Also the vehicle does not come with tpms, however the tpms warning light on the instrument panel stays on all the time. Also if the rear lift gate is opened the cargo light indicator on the instrument panel stays on until you open and close the lift gate a total of two times.

5 Other Fuel System Tank Mounting problem

Failure Date: 12/04/2012

This is getting ridiculous and it seems that no one is willing to take ownership for a faulty system that is obviously dangerous. What I found to be absurd is how multiple people have posted numerous complaints about the same issue, recalls have been made for the same issue and still no action. I have a 2005 Dodge Durango and each and every time I fill my tank the pump will stop but an excessive amount of gas will overflow. How many complaints must be entered before someone takes action or are manufacturers waiting for a catastrophic mishap to get their attention. Fumes could easily get under the vehicle, and find the catalytic converter and ignite. Something must be done, the time is now. Take responsibility!.
