36 Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 12/28/2009

2007 Dodge Durango overflows fuel when filling gas tank. The vehicle has begun doing it each time it is filled up with fuel, regardless of gas station. This began happening about 1 month ago. The spilled fuel on the ground presents fire and environmental hazards.

38 Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2009

I have a 2007 Dodge Durango limited vehicle. At about 45,000 miles when filling up the gas tank at any gas station and letting if fill up to the automatic cut-off, gas spills out with great force right after the pump's auto cut-off. It spurted as far out as about 2-3 feet from the car and then continues to come out and go down the side of the car. I would estimate that there is probably at least 8-12 ounces of fuel spillage everytime this happens. This is a fire, safety, and environmental hazard. It is my understanding from doing research that there are many people that have this problem in Chrysler vehicles. Many years 2005-2009 Durangos, Jeep wranglers, and Jeep cherokees. It is clear that Chrysler continues to put faulty filler tubes and gas tanks on their vehicles even after they knew they had a problem. I have seen over 200 complaints of this problem on various model years of Durango's just in this past year. Chrysler gives the run around expecting people to pay anywhere from $200-$1500 to fix this problem that should be fixed by them for faulty equipment. There are also plenty of videos on the internet showing this problem. I urge you to open an investigation on the 2007 Durango and other models and institute a recall to force Chrysler to fix this problem. You all investigated Toyota only after 32 complaints which ended up being more user error than anything. I know that NHTSA has got a lot more than 32 complaints on this issue. Please be consistent with your investigations and start one for this problem.

39 Tank Assembly problem

Fuel sprays out of fill hole when tank is filled and pump shuts off. This has been doing this for years, and I just learned this was a common problem to Dodge vehicles. To correct, I never fill the vehicle up.
