Having 3 major issues that can be life threating. . 1) driving at any speed sometimes vehicle will completely shut off leaving me on the highway at 60mph no power steering 2) filling gas tank up no matter if I go slow will always spit lots of gas back out of the neck 3) 4x4 is engaging by itself. I can park it turn motor off and you can hear it going into 4x4 without me being in the vehicle or touching the 4x4 knob. This has cause me issue steering when it decides to go into 4x4 mode by itself. I need to know if their is current complaints about the above issues and how can I get them fix without me paying.

Problem when refilling the gas tank. When the tank gets full, fuel sprays out of the gas tank fill port. At first I thought it was faulty equipment at the gas station but it has happened consecutive times at different gas stations. Probably sprays out 8 or 12 ounces.

The shut off valve has not worked correctly for over the past year. When filling the gas tank gas is spit back on the car and driveway service. This happens even if I pause for a period during filling the tank to let pressure release. My dealer says they have never heard of this, had to believe with so many complaints all over the internet. I would like Dodge to step up and take care of the problem. Help. . . . . . .
Upon filling the fuel tank, the pump clicks off and gasoline spews back out of the fuel fill neck. This has happened serveral different times at different fuel stations. Approximatley a pint to a quart of gasoline quickly spews back out of the tank covering the side of the vehicle and pants and shoes of whomever is fueling the vehicle.

When I filled my car with gas it the pump kicked off but fuel came spilling out from the tank. The fuel spilled over me, the car and the ground. At first I thought it was a one time thing but it has happened numerous times, even when I have not filled the tank completely. This has now caused serious rust around my tank and through the corner panel. It has now rusted through completely. I am afraid of the safety of the tank and filling the tank with gas. Not to mention the cost of lost gas.
Upon first purchasing at a dealership the purchase was as a used vehicle, so no warranty is or was in place. A few months later when filling the tank at a gas station the first incident of propulsion of gasoline forcing out of the tank, first happened. Then a couple of times when trying to start the vehicle the motor would not start. Using an obd to check codes there was no error codes but still ended up clearing it anyways which allowed the vehicle to start (which means its the computer). Now, the front passenger window is down and will not go back up, checked the motor and the motor for the window is fine, but checking the switch it would only unlock door, not allow lock and absolutely no window control at all from either the passenger door switch or driver side switch. When looking at the switches turns out that the circuit boards are not soldered. The only way to get any of the problems fixed for anyone now would be for a recall, because the year being 2014 no warranty will cover any problems that I or anyone else is facing!.
Everytime I fill up or come close to filling up the gas will come shooting out of the tank. It gets all over me, the vehicle and the ground. It can shoot as far as 4 or 5 feet away from the vehicle. I have stopped putting more than 1/2 a tank at a time in it but it is a huge inconvienence to have to stop for gas so much.
Fuel spills out when filling the tank.
When you are filling up the gas tank and the nozzle shuts off when it's full. The tank or check valve doesn't close and a lot of gasoline flows back out onto the side of the Durango and on the ground. This could potentially be very dangerous.
The first time it happened, the transfer case went into neutral, on it's own, while driving on a devided hiway, with no shoulder. It kind of created a traffic jam. Long story short. A friend towed me home. I reset the transfer case per the instruction manual, and it went back into gear. Still do not know why it went into neutral in the first place. Now, when you open the doors, the transfer case motor operates like crazy, for up to 30 seconds, and some times longer. I got on line and have found out that is a problem experienced by many Durango awd owners. I bought it used and the previous owners claimed that it never did it before. Also, when filling the tank up, the filler neck will "purge" fuel out onto the ground and your feet. This is listed as a dealer recall, and mine was looks to have been done, but the problem is still there.
When filling the fuel tank up, the gas pours out and goes everywhere the car, ground, and me.
We were filling the fuel tank at a gas station, after the tank was filled it sprayed fuel on my wife. I have investigated this issue online and found this recall. I will also contact Dodge ,but I also have read a few instances where they are resistant to this safety issue so I decided to also report it here.
This is my 2nd 2005 Dodge Durango that has the exact same issue as described in NHTSA campaign number: 09v003000. Chrysler recall h45. When filling the tank, gas spits back at you. Gasoline hits your pants, shoes, and all over the gas station pavement. This happens everytime you fill the tank. The workaround is not fill the tank all the way but that is a hit or miss issue. I call Chrysler and they said they don't see this issue with my 2nd Durango. I'd typically accept it but seeing how both my Durangos had the exact same issue it is a little bit hard to swallow. This vehicle has had the issue for at least a year and I am ready for Chrysler to fix it before there is a fire or other epa issue. Thanks.
When filling the tank, the pump shuts off and gasoline continues to spill out. This has happened on numerous occasions and we have to avoid topping off the tank in order to avoid the spill. When doing some research, we found that there was a recall in 2009 for the fuel system/gasoline storage tank assembly. Today (4/8/13), we contacted and spoke to our Dodge/Chrysler dealer and they stated that there was indeed a recall in 2009 and apparently our vehicle VIN was not covered under the recall and that there were no extensions. We are just in awe, that a potential fire hazard and something this dangerous would not continue have an extension under the recall. Had we known there was a recall, we would have had the situation addressed sooner.
My 2005 Dodge Durango had the completed recall h45 worked done on 4/27/2009. The Dodge dealership replaced the gas tank per the h45 recall. The Dodge dealership considers the matter closed but the issue has now occurred with this new installed tank. The vehicle had 28,994 miles when this work was done. Now the vehicle has 68,000 miles on it and the same issue occurs while filling the gas tank up. Upon shut off of the gas pump, fuel will spit up out of the inlet fuel tube and leave fuel on the side of my SUV and leave a puddle of fuel below the car. I wanted to report this issue ASAP due to the fact that recall h45 was completed on this vehicle but problem is occuring again. Under the recall h45 the dealer will replace the fuel tank, but what about the inlet fuel check valve? was the tank inlet check valve replaced when the fuel tank was replaced? was the fuel tank replaced on my SUV a newer unit that passed all safety checks or did I get an older unit that still had the issues with the inlet check valve failing? this issues needs further investigation to meet the safety recall h45 completed work done by the dealer and to help others that may have the same issue occuring once again with there Durangos under this recall.
I recently purchased a 2006 Durango with some rust bubbles below the gasoline fill up door. On research of this issue I found 372 complaints regarding the fuel/propulsion system - spitting out gasoline when being filled at a gas station out of 553 total complaints via NHTSA. I have only had my vehicle a week and have not yet filled the tank. Now very leery of filling the tank for fear of being covered with gasoline, polluting the environment, causing an explosion, injuring/killing nearby innocent bystanders, including myself. In the case of a potentially dangerous situation such as this, there is liability as with any safety hazard. Besides the numerous complaints, there are videos on popular sites demonstrating the gas spit back yet there are no investigations reported regarding this complaint and only 2 service bulletins regarding this complaint. It makes me sick to think that I or some other Durango owner could accidentally cause a mass fatality at a gas station if some unsuspecting person uses their cell phone or lights up. What about the health of the person pumping the gas? last I heard gasoline showers are very toxic. Why is there no investigation on this concern?.
2007 Dodge Durango slt 4x4, stalling and engine failure without warning while driving down the road. The first few times the engine stalled it would lose all power and stop in the intersection with little to no way of controlling the vehicle. Once the vehicle stalled and several more times in an attempt to get safely out of the road the engine would no longer start. The dealership has had the vehicle for several days with no luck in finding the issues. I also have issues with the fuel system when filling the vehicle with gas it shoots out of the tank everytime it is filled up. This started at approx 45k miles. I was unaware that this is a safety issue, since it is a know problem with Dodge it should be addressed.

When filling up the vehicle with fuel the pumps do not shut off when it is full and the gasoline spills outside of the vehicle, sometimes violently. This happens almost every time I fill the vehicle and is extremely dangerous! luckily the first time I was inside of the gas station when it happened and it shot out everywhere and soaked a 3-4 foot radius from the gas tank. This last time I filled up it sprayed a fine mist everywhere and it spilled all down the side of the vehicle.
After filling fuel tank a lot of fuel sprays out of top of filler neck and spills down the side of the vehicle. Sometimes it sprays out a few feet away and can get all over you. It happens every time the tank is filled up. There is a recall for this exact problem with the 2005 model but not one for the 2006 model.
While filling vehicle with gasoline the tank overflowed when the pump clicked off. Gasoline ran down the side of the truck and onto the ground. Has now happened several times, same issue as found in earlier model gen 2 Durango's.

I have 2007 Dodge Durango with the 5. 7l hemi. Approximately 2 years ago we began having issues when fueling the vehicle. When filling the tank, the fuel nozzle will automatcially shut off normally when the tank is full. However, when removing the pump nozzle gas spews back out of the filler neck all over whomever is filling the vehicle or onto the ground. From what I have seen this has been an on going issue with several Dodge vehicles and of course all after the warranty has expired. Seems lliek you have enough compalints about to force a recall but choose not to. With fuel prices still at an elevated level, this is costing me money as there is wasted fuel on the ground. Please force Dodge to issue a recall.
When filling with gas to capacity fuel sprays out of the gas tank all over the car, the ground and me. Obvious safety and environmental hazard.
I was filling my car and once it was filled the gas forcefully came back out of the tank and covered my coat pants and shoes. I am so angry, this has happened on other time that I completely filled my tank. The gas should not be coming back out of the tank. # 1 - I am now covered in gas, this is a huge safety issue, # gas is all over the side of my vehicle, huge safety issue, #3 gas is all over the ground at the service station, huge safety issue. This problem has been recalled in the 2005 Dodge Durango and I feel that my car is experiencing the same issues. I think that if Dodge does not want a law suit they would fix the problem.
Upon filling up the tank the fuel will spray out all over the place.

Every time I fill the gas tank, the gasoline spitted out at the end of filling.
Any time I go to the gas pump to fill up fuel spills out of the tank. I have asked Dodge about this and they say to change the fuel cap. I dont know how the fuel cap has to do with filling the tank. This has happened on several occassions covering myself kids and husband in gasoline. I now have to watch the fuel guage while im filling up and listen for the tank to be full. This is a hazard and needs to be corrected by Dodge.
When filling gas tank (topping it off) I'll hear 1 click and the gas will instantly start spewing out. Normally it'll run down the vehicle (which has caused paint damage/rust). However, last week I was pumping gas and I received absolutely no warning that it was full so the gasoline starting blowing back at me. I was saturated from my arms to my feet in gas. It was absolutely terrifying, not to mention extremely dangerous, and humiliating. Something needs to be gone before something tragic happens to someone.
I have a 2006 Dodge Durango, when filling the fuel tank gas spews out of the filler neck when approaching full. I have researched this problem and have found that there was a recall on numerous Chrysler makes and models,indicating the problem is with a faulty inlet check valve in the fuel tank. Only certain specific VIN numbers are covered under the recall despite the fact that thousands of documented complaints have been recorded. Chrysler has denied that this is an ongoing manufacture defect, I assume to keep from having to spend potentially millions of dollars to correct the problem. This not only a fire hazard, but an environmental hazard a well. Please take the appropriate steps to require the Chrysler corporation to include any vehicles with this defect in an updated recall. Thank you.
Upon filling the gas tank, it has started to overflow and spray gasoline once it gets full.
Over the last 12 and 1/2 months, it has been an issue with filling the gas tank. Each time that I fill up my tank, the gas will either spill back out from under the car, spout out like it is spraying in the air or it will just come back out and roll down the sides of the truck. This has become a continuing issue and when I called the Dodge place within my area, they claimed to not know of this being a problem or a recall. But as I started my research, I located many people in my same predicament.
Each time I fill the gas tank, if the nozzle is set to automatically shut off, the nozzle shuts off, however fuel overflows the filling tube. Often it runs down the side of the vehicle and/or splashes out. I contacted Chrysler about a recall in place for these symptoms, however, they said my vehicle is not included.
Upon filling fuel tank gas will emit from the filling area. Happens at all gas stations no matter the filling speed. I understand there is a recall for the 2005 model but why not the 2006?.
I am having an issue with the fuel tank when I am filling up the truck, when fueling, the pump handle will click off and then fuel will shoot out of the fuel tank all over the place. I have never seen or experienced this issue ever before and it is quite alarming when you gas up and end up covered in gasoline not to mention the fact I am spilling gasoline all over at the pump, I feel this is a liability because of fuel spills and the fact it could potentially start a fire. I have seen several recalls on this issue and also several reviews as to Chrysler/Dodge not helping to repair the problem, this is why I was told to start here with a formal complaint.
When filling fuel tank, gas spews out of filler tube posing fire risk, damaging clothing, and adding voc's to atmosphere. Many complaints of same thing and even recalls on various model years. Makes very little sense why Dodge or ntsb doesn't connect the dots and correct this problem in a comprehensive fashion.
When filling tank the fuel filler hose sprays fuel back everywhere. I am scared to fill my tank up as it is a risk that gas gets sprayed all over you. My vehicle is stationary at the pump turned off. In googling it seems multiple people have this problem.
