Other Fuel System Tank Mounting Problems of Dodge Durango

On July 2, 2020, I was driving my Dodge Durango up an isolated steep mountain road in the sierra nevada at about 20 mph when it suddenly stalled on a steep grade in the road. I was able to apply the emergency brakes to prevent the car from rolling backwards. There were no engine warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel and the car had been operating at normal temperature. After trying to the restart the car, the engine at first began to operate, then almost immediately hesitated and died. I tried again with the same results, and even attempted to apply the gas pedal to no avail. As someone with some previous mechanical experience, it seemed to me that it was a fuel delivery problem. The car had nearly half a tank of gas however. I popped the hood and observed nothing out of the ordinary that would indicate any problems. There was oil in the crankcase and ample coolant. My wife and I decided to wait and let the engine and vehicle cool down since it was over 90 degrees outside air temperature. After about 20 minutes, I restarted the car without problem and continued on my way. The car had previously been in automatic mode but had shifted to the lower gears. I decided to put the transmission in manual mode and keep the car in 1st and 2nd gear due to the steep terrain. We had no problems the rest of the way. We were beyond cell phone range on a very isolated road and it would have been very difficult to obtain a tow, so I am very grateful the car continued to operate after our initial problem. However, we would like to know if this problem will occur again or whether having the transmission in automative mode on a steep grade played any role.

When filling the fuel tank up the gas will spurt back out , you can fill it slow or fast it will do the same, it's not a small amount, it's a large amount.

There was indeed a recall for the 2005 and 2006 model years of my vehicle from Chrysler for a fuel safety issue of massive amounts of fuel spilling out of the tank during fuel ups. They acknowledge, the recall was cut off exactly one day prior to this particular vehicle's manufacturing date. The part identified was a fault with the fuel inlet check valve. Dodge identified the only recourse for this vehicle is to petition the NHTSA and hope they recall it to replace it by Dodge, or pay for a repair myself out of pocket for a known and acknowledged defect. This is a major safety hazard with the vehicle and I am noticing the same issue on all Dodge Durangos I observe on the road now, with rusty quarter panels due to fuel spill and saturation issues in the same spot.

I was unable to add fuel to the vehicle within a reasonable amount of time until Dodge replaced the fuel filler neck assembly. The fuel would pour out onto the ground or the pump would keep shutting off before the tank was full.

The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Durango. While attempting to fuel the vehicle, the contact was unable to insert the entire fuel pump nozzle into the fuel filler neck. The fuel filler neck would only allow a certain amount of fuel to enter at a time. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel filler neck and fuel tank parts needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 129,494.

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.

Large amount of fuel spills when filling tank, comes out when fuel hose is removed from the filler tube every time when filled.

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.

Gasoline overflows from filler neck when filling fuel tank. A considerable amount of gasoline overflows after gasoline pump shuts off.

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.

Fuel overflows from the inlet when fueling the vehicle. If you attempt to actually fill the tank (which I only get 20 gallons into a 27 gallon tank even when the low fuel light comes on), the fuel will overflow out of the inlet as soon as the handle clicks off. It's not a small amount of overflow either, it's enough that the fuel ends up down the side of the vehicle and into a puddle on the ground. This has caused the only surface rust on the entire vehicle.

Beginning with the first time I filled the tank, when the fuel fuller nozzle is set to auto fill, when the filler clicks off, fuel gushes back out of the tank and down the side of the car and all over the ground. I was standing too close and my pants leg got soaked to the point that my skin burned from the presence of gasoline. [I'm glad that I quit smoking in 1984 now for an additional reason. ] the next time I filled the tank, I watched the volume delivered and stopped the flow about two gallons before full and gently pumped the last amount in. When it was full, it burped out about a pint and a half anyway. This is a real safety hazard. I can't believe they recalled the 2005 for this issue and didn't fix the real problem! this problem needs to be addressed before someone bets burned.

I just purchased the vehicle and went to fill up the fuel tank. When the gas station dispenser automatically shut off, I got a large spray of fuel back out of the filler pipe that sprayed out on me and also ran down the side of the vehicle. According to the fuel gauge, the tank was not completely full when it did this. I had a small amount of fuel in my eye and had to rinse it out.

Every time that I attempt to fill the gas tank, gasoline sprays out of the tank all over me. This was never a problem until the vehicle hit 60,000 miles. The problem started a few months ago and happens every time that I try to fill the tank up. The only solution is to limit the amount of gasoline that I put into the tank. There is approximately a quart or more of gas that sprays everywhere. I am going to contact the dealership tomorrow to see what type of remediation is available. This is a major safety and environmental hazard. We are supposed to be limiting gasoline emissions, so I am fairly certain that gasoline spraying all over the person pumping the gas as well as over the ground is a hazard. I have researched this online and see that more that just the 2005 is affected. I think that the Dodge dealerships should have to check each Durango from 2005 until when the problem was corrected. If any are affected, they should have to fix those that are a problem.

Was filling up with fuel when after about a gallon the auto shut off turned off and a large amount of fuel came shooting out of the vehicle. The tank was nearly empty when I began fueling so overfilling isn't the cause. I noticed many people having similar issues and Dodge has done some recalls with regards to this. Looks like my vehicles VIN isn't covered under the recall at this point.

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!.

Refueling the gas pump shuts off and then a large amount of gas sprays out the tank all over the gas pump handle, and down the car. About 2 cups of gas spew out almost every time we fill up - even if pumping slowly. This is a new problem (had the car since new in 2006) and just started last month. This should be recalled or at least fixed as it is very dangerous for my family sitting in the car as I refill, and dangerous in many other ways!.

Fill the gas tank and when stopped filling a large amount of gas backflows out of tank onto the ground and person pumping gas! this is a major hazard both for the person and the environment. Took to Dodge dealer and they said this has happened a lot and only way to fix is to replace gas tank which is very expensive. Called Dodge and they refuse to cooperate saying they never heard of this problem before must be the way I pump gas! this has happened everytime I fill gas. Very annoying and hazardous!!.

Tl-the contact owns a 2005 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while attempting to refuel, fuel spew back out of the filler neck spilling on the groung and on him. The contact stated that there was a large amount of fuel that spilled out. The incident occurred twice since he purchased the vehicle a few weeks ago. The dealer and the manufacturer were contacted who advised the contact that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign id number 05v034000 (fuel system, gasoline: storage: tank assembly: filler pipe and cap). The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was approximately 118,000. The VIN was unavailable. Pmb.

Each time I fuel, once the tank is full, it spews/gurgles a large amount of fuel back out of the filler neck. It happens at every kind of pump, and it happens whether I use the auto shut off or if I control the flow and slow it to a trickle. It still happens once the tank gets close to full. Each time I fuel, I spill at least 1-3 quarts of fuel onto the ground. This is very harmful to the enviornment, a waste of my money, and a safety issue. I have owned many new and old vehicles, and never in my life, have I experienced a problem fueling my car. This is a known problem from Dodge, because they recalled the 2005 Durango for this very problem. So why fix the 2005's and not the 2006????.

During refueling. Once the gas nozzle clicks and the tank is full a great amount of gasoline spews out of the tank. Does not matter what gas station is used. Happens every time and is a definite fire risk. Multiple searches online demonstrate hundreds of results and videos about this exact issue.

The gas tank sprays a large amount of gasoline back out of the tank every time it is filled. This is a flammable and environmental hazard. It is the same symptom as in the 2005 Dodge Durango recall, yet the '06s are not included. This is clearly a manufacturing defect, yet Dodge will not correct this, and it is a costly repair to the consumer.

Safety and environmental hazard. When fueling the vehicle and the fuel nozzle stops filling, a large amount of gasoline forcefully spews from the tank filler neck. Spraying on the person fueling, spilling fuel on the ground, and on the vehicle. At first it was annoying. Now I feel it has become a safety hazard and also an environmental hazard. I am not describing a small burp of gasoline, but a large amount, at least a cup of fuel. I no longer can fill the tank, I have to stop short to prevent the attendant from being drenched with gas and gas being spilled on the ground.

The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Durango slt. The contact stated that he made a sudden stop and the vehicle stalled. The failure recurred sporadically. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the dealer advised the contact that the failure was related to bad gasoline fuel. The vehicle was later taken to a repair shop where the mechanic advised the contact that there was a flaw in the fuel tank and a baffle that was loose. The baffle blocked the fuel going through the engine causing the vehicle to stall. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue however no assistance was offered. The VIN was unavailable. The current mileage was 65,000. The failure mileage was 25,000.

Recall no. 99v342000 mfr no. 842 service department at dealer was rude to consumer; part wasn't given approx. Satisfactory assistant.
