Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2007 Dodge Durango

Fuel is sprayed on the vehicle, floor, person's upper and lower body while refueling. The vehicle is turned off, in park, at the gas station. The fuel spray occurs every time the fuel tank is filled near full. Followed with a strong fuel odor inside the cabin that lasts for about an hour. The problem started around 2010.

I just purchased a 2007 Dodge Durango and noticed that every time I fill up the truck at a gas station, instead of the gas pump automatically shutting off once the gas tank was full, gas would spit/back out of the nozzle area and run down the side of the truck. I at first thought it might have been the gas station, but it has occurred three more times at different gas stations. Needless to say, this is very dangerous and apparently, this is a very common problem with other Dodge owners. I called the dealership and they said that because I purchased the extended warranty, I'm responsible for the deductible. This problem should have been a recall on Dodge behalf. I'm afraid that because I have to wait to come up with the deductible, a more serious accident could occur in the meantime. Please contact me at your earliest convenience and thank you for your attention to this letter.

The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that when the vehicle was being refueled, it failed to stop when the tank was full. As a result, the fuel spilled back out the filler neck. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 56,000.

When we fill the fuel tank, the pump clicks and we stop fueling. Problem after that is that the vehicle stops running at various times. Could be making a turn and it will die or stopped or driving. Very dangerous. Looked up this problem and there is a NHTSA bullitin for this problem for other vehicles, there is a valve on top of the tank that fails and allows fuel into the vapor canister causing the vehicle to stop running. Please extend the recall to this vehicle as well. Thank you.

If I filled tank with gas completely it would overflow, so I would never fill all the way. Now I can barely put any gas in it without it overflowing, even at the slowest rate.

Whenever I fill the tank with gas, when the pump clicks off, and then gas spews out all over the place. There is a "technical service bulletin" describing this problem on my vehicle, but when I went to the local Chrysler dealer for the airbag recall and asked if they would fix the gas problem, they said that the "technical service bulletin" was just "courtesy information" and if I wanted to "fix" it, I would have to pay for it. I've seen online that many others have had their vehicle fixed at their dealership for free. I don't know if I was lied to, or if the drivers I read about online just have better dealerships than I do here. I love the Durango - it's a great vehicle, but the gas fill problem is a mess. I wish I could get Chrysler to do something about it.

Every time that I fill the fuel tank it spits out about 1/4 of a gallon of fuel. It is very costly and very dangerous. We are a family of 7 and this is our family car. Having this much fuel spill out is a danger, not only to my family but to the others at the gas station. This is a major problem that needs to be taken care of by the manufacturer.

Every single time we fill up the tank on my 2007 Dodge Durango 4x4 limited gas overflows. There is enough force that it usually sprays out. I estimate that 1/4 to 1/2 gallon of gasoline sprays out of the tank onto the body of the car and the ground. This is not only extremely inconvenient but also very dangerous to myself and other gas station patrons! although none is noticeable yet, there will surely be eventual paint damage on the affected are of the body.

When fueling you have to shut off gas before full because gas will not shut off and spray out. The vehicle is stationary when putting in fuel. This happens at every fueling I have to make sure and shut off before the tank is full.
