2006 Dodge Durango Complaint Log

AFTER FILLING VEHICLE WITH FUEL GAS WILL SHOOT OUT OF INTAKE AREA. APPROXIMATELY 1/4 TO 1/2 GALLON. *KB

EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS IT ERUPTS BACK OUT OF THE TANK. THE LOCAL DEALER SAYS IT IS THE FUEL TANK FILLER CHECK VALVE. THIS IS LOCATED INSIDE THE FUEL TANK. THE SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK. DODGE DID A RECALL ON THE 2005 DURANGO BUT NOT THE 2006 DURANGO. $900 FOR THE PART PLUS LABOR. *TR

GASOLINE SPITS BACK FROM THE GAS TANK EVERY TIME THAT THE VEHICLE IS FILLED UP. THE CHECK VALUE IS DEFECTIVE AND COULD EASILY START A FIRE DURING THE FILL-UP BECAUSE IT DOES NOT PROPERLY SHUT OFF. I CAN NOT COMPLETELY FILL UP MY GAS TANK WITHOUT THE DANGER OF SPRAYING GASOLINE EVERYWHERE AT THE GAS STATION. A TSB WAS ISSUED, BUT IT DOES NOT COVER MY VIN. *JB

WHILE FILLING UP MY VEHICLE WITH FUEL, THE VEHICLE TOPPED OFF AND SHUT OFF THE FUEL NOZZLE, THEN FUEL CAME RUSHING OUT OF THE VEHICLE'S FILLER TUBE ONTO THE VEHICLE, MY HAND AND LEG, AND THE GROUND. THIS IS AN ONGOING MISHAP WITH THIS VEHICLE AND OTHER 2006 DURANGO'S AS INDICATED BY REVIEWING HISTORICAL EVENTS ON THIS WEBSITE. IT SHOULD NOT TAKE A MAJOR MISHAP OR FIRE TO GET THE APPROPRIATE ATTENTION THIS DESERVES,. CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS AN ISSUE, HOWEVER THE 2005 DURANGO WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. *TR

A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT IS WHEN IT STARTED SPITTING OUT GAS. IT DOE IT WHEN I TRY TO FILL IT UP. I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK FOR TWO YEARS AND NOTHING HAS FIXED THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO FILL IT UP BECAUSE EVERY TIME I DO IT SPITS BACK OUT ON ME TO WHERE IT GET ON MY CLOTHES. I HAVE A TODDLER AND CAN'T RISK HER INHALING THE FUMES SO I CANT FILL THE TRUCK UP CAUSING THE TRUCK EAT THE GAS QUICKER. *TR

EVERY TIME WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK TO FULL, BY HAND OR AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF, THE GASOLINE SPRAYS OUT AND OVERFLOWS ONTO THE CAR, FUEL NOZZLE, AND GROUND WHEN FULL. THIS OCCURS REGARDLESS OF THE SPEED OF FILLING THE TANK. *TR

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK WITH THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF, THE TANK OVERFILLS ABOUT EVERY OTHER FILL. *TR

ANYTIME WE FILL THE DURANGO AND GAS COMES BACK OUT WHEN THE NOZZLE IS REMOVED. THERE IS SO MUCH GAS THAT COMES OUT THAT WE HAVE TO CLEAN IT UP FROM THE GROUND AND IT HAS CAUSED BUBBLES IN THE PAINT WHICH HAVE RESULTED IN SURFACE RUST. DEALER THAT WE PURCHASED FROM CHECKED THE VEHICLE AND TOLD US THERE WAS A CLOGGED FILTER. WE GOT THE FILTERS REPLACED AND WHEN MY HUSBAND FILLED IT UP TODAY 6/26/2012 HE SAID AT LEAST 1/2 GALLON OF GAS CAME BACK OUT OF THE CAR. THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE BECAUSE IT IS LEAVING GAS ALL ON THE GROUND. THE ONLY WAY WE CAN KEEP THE GAS FROM COMING OUT IS TO REMOVE THE NOZZLE AFTER EVERY SINGLE GALLON. THE FUEL SENSOR INSIDE THE CAR WILL EVEN REGISTER FULL AT 16 GALLONS OF GAS WHEN THE TANK IS 26 GALLONS. WE ARE WASTING ALL KINDS OF MONEY FROM THE GAS COMING UP, COST OF REPAIRING THE PAINT AND REMOVING RUST AND THE MONEY WE SPENT ON REPLACING FILTERS THAT HAVE MADE THIS ISSUE WORSE. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. IT WAS FIXED IN 2005 VEHICLES BUT NOTHING FOR 2006 AND HIGHER EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. SOME DODGE DEALERSHIPS ARE EVEN CALLING OWNERS LIARS SAYING THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF ANY ISSUE LIKE THIS OR ANY RECALLS EVER FOR THIS TYPE OF ISSUE. SOMEONE NEEDS TO MAKE DODGE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS ISSUE. THE GAS THAT SPILLS IS GOING TO END UP CAUSING A FIRE AND KILLING PEOPLE ONE OF THESE DAYS. *JB

WHILE REFUELING MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED AT THE AAFES GAS STATION ON RANDOLPH AFB, FUEL CAME SPEWING OUT OF THE REFUEL NOZZLE ONCE THE PUMP CUT OFF AND THE TANK WAS FULL THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 60 TIMES SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE, AND AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS ACROSS AMERICA. THE GAS STATION ATTENDANT WAS VERY ANGRY WITH ME SAYING THAT I OVERFILLED THE TANK UNTIL I EXPLAINED TO HIM WHAT IS GOING ON WITHTHE VEHICLE. HE GOT A MOP HAZMAT KIT AND CLEANED UP THE MESS BEFORE I LEFT. THIS IS A SAFETY AND FIRE HAZARD. THE 2005 DURANGO WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT THE 2006 IS BEING IGNORED. YOU CAN SEE A VIDEO OF THIS HAPPENING ON YOUTUBE BY LOOKING FOR 2006 DURANGO FUELING PROBLEMS. THERE ARE TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE FOR NOTHING TO BE ACCOMPLISHED FOR US OWNERS OF THE 2006 DURANGO. WHAT WILL IT TAKE, A FIRE AND SOMEONE INJURED OR KILLED TO GET THE MESSAGE? CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS AN ISSUE, AND MY LOCAL DEALER IS IN DENIAL AND KNOWS NOTHING OF THE PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT DURING REFUELING, FUEL WOULD LEAK FROM THE TANK ABNORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE VEHICLE BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 51,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 59,125. UPDATED 11/16/11 *BF UPDATED 11/18/11

WHEN REFILLING THE FUEL TANK THE NOZZLE ON THE HOSE FROM THE GASOLINE DISPENSER DOES NOT CLICK ON AND STOP THE FLOW OF FUEL ONCE THE TANK IS FULL RESULTING IN APPROXIMATELY 8 OUNCES OF GASOLINE BEING REGURGITATED BACK OUT OF THE TANK AND ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE ONTO THE PERSON STANDING THERE FUELING THE CAR AND THEN ONTO THE GROUND. IN MY OPINION THIS POSES A GRAVE SAFETY HAZARD IN THAT THIS OVERFLOW MAY IGNITE AND INJURE THE PERSON FILLING THE VEHICLE PLUS CAUSE A RATHER LARGE FIRE WHEN THE VEHICLE AND SURROUNDING ITEMS AT THE STATION ALSO GO UP IN FLAMES.THIS HAS HAPPENED AT SEVERAL DIFFERENT FILLING STATIONS AND I WAS ADVISED LAST FRIDAY (1/13/2012) BY AN ATTENDANT AT T SAM'S CLUB FILLING STATION THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR DURANGOS OF THE AGE OF MINE. I STOPPED BY AVONDALE DODGE (WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW) ON MY WAY HOME TO DISCUSS THIS PROBLEM AND THEY GAVE ME A 800 NUMBER TO CALL THAT I'VE BEEN GETTING A RUN AROUND ABOUT THE PROBLEM SO FAR. *TR

EVERYTIME WE FILL THE GAS TANK FOR THE PAST YEAR IT SHOOTS MORE THAN A FOOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL SPILL / SPIT BACK DURING REFUELING DUE TO FAULTY INLET CHECK VALVE (ICV). OCCURS EVERY TIME WHEN REFILLING TANK. GAS HAS SPILLED ON MY CLOTHES AND CAUSED IRRITATION TO MY SKIN. IT ALSO SPILLS ALL OVER GROUND. THIS IS BOTH A FLAMMABLE HAZARD AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. CALLED DODGE CORPORATE CUSTOMER CARE IN 2012. THEY ASSIGNED ME A CASE # AND CASE MANAGER. THE CASE MANAGER LOOKED UP MY VIN AND SAID THE DEFECT IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE ACTIVATED AND FAILED TO DEACTIVATE UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. A FEW MOMENTS LATER THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL WAS ENGAGED; HOWEVER THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL RESPONDED. THERE WAS A RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 06V039000 (VISIBILITY: WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER: SWITCH/WIRING). THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,500.

GASOLINE SPRAYS OUT ALL OVER GROUND AND VEHICLE WHEN FILLING UP. AFTER PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, YOU CAN HEAR THE GASOLINE SUCK BACK UP AND THAN IT SPRAYS OUT. *TR

WHEN I FILL THE GAS TANK, GAS SPITS OUT . HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN A FEW TIMES AND I READ THAT THIS IS A RECALL. MY DEALERSHIP SHRUGS IT OFF AND TOLD ME ITS NOT A RECALL AND JUST DONT FILL UP MY TANK. *TR

2006 DODGE DURANGO. RUST ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL WELL. ALSO RUST ON BOTH ENDS OF THE CHROME PIECE ABOVE THE LICENSE PLATE. I KNOW OF TWO OTHER DURANGO'S OF FRIENDS THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. *KB

OWN DURANGO BUILT JAN 2006, GAS IS PUT IN IT, CLICK OFF NOZZLE, GAS COMES BACK OUT FORCEFULLY OVER THE VEHICLE, GROUND AND MYSELF. IT IS TERRIFYING AND DANGEROUS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ON THE 2005. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT. I BARELY DRIVE IT BECAUSE I AM SO TERRIFIED TO PUT GAS IN IT. I TRIED TO EMAIL DODGE AND THE EMAIL DOES NOT GO THROUGH. I CALLED ON THE RECALL AND THEY TOLD ME IT IS FOR THE 2005 AND I CAN HAVE THE DEALER FIX IT AND MAYBE THEY WILL HELP. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP AND THE PART ALONE IS $550 AND I DO NOT HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY AND I DON'T HAVE 40,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. HERE IS THE RECALL: JANUARY 2009 -- CHRYSLER IS RECALLING 19,024 MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO VEHICLES. THE FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE INLET CHECK VALVE MAY NOT FULLY CLOSE AT THE END OF REFUELING. THIS COULD ALLOW SOME FUEL TO ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE FILLER NECK AT THE END OF REFUELING. FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE CAN RESULT IN A FIRE. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE. VEHICLES FOUND TO HAVE A SUSPECT INLET CHECK VALVE WILL HAVE THE FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING APRIL 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403. THIS RECALL WAS THE SUBJECT OF A RECALL QUERY, RQ08-005, CONDUCTED BY THE OFFICE OF DEFECTS INVESTIGATION. 09V-003 MANY OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT OF 2006: HTTP://WWW.AUTOMOTIX.NET/AUTOREPAIR/CAR_PROBLEMS/DODGE-DURANGO/2006/FUEL_SYSTEM_GASOLINESTORAGETANK_ASSEMBLYFILLER_PIPE_AND_CAP/ ____ HTTP://WWW.AUTOMOTIX.NET/AUTOREPAIR/CAR_PROBLEMS/DODGE-DURANGO/2006/FUEL_SYSTEM_GASOLINE/ ____ HTTP://WWW.AUTOMOTIX.NET/AUTOREPAIR/CAR_PROBLEMS/DODGE-DURANGO/2006/FUEL_SYSTEM_GASOLINESTORAGETANK_ASSEMBLY/ ____ HTTP://WWW.AUTOMOTIX.NET/AUTOREPAIR/CAR_PROBLEMS/DODGE-DURANGO/2006/FUEL_SYSTEM_OTHER/

WHILE TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE FROM THE PARKING LOT THE IGNITION SWITCH WOULD NOT TURN. I HAD TO INSERT THE KEY IN THE SWITCH 10 TO 12 TIMES BEFORE IT WOULD TURN. I TRIED TO UNLOCK THE STEERING WHEEL BY TURN IT THE BEST COULD TO GET THE IGNITION TO TURN BUT IT STILL WOULD NOT TURN. THIS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION TO MYSELF AND MY WIFE. IN 2012 WE HAD TO AFTER THE SITUATION CONTINUED WE HAD THE IGNITION REPLACE, A COST OF ALMOST $1200.00. I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS WAS CAUSED BY WHAT HAPPENED IN THE LATEST RECALL OF OVER 1.4 MILLION VEHICLES? ...UPDATED 09/11/15 *BF THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. UPDATED 09/29/15*JB

WHILE RE-FUELING THE VEHICLE AFTER THE PUMP AUTO SHUT OFF CLICKS OFF ABOUT A SECOND OR TWO LATER FUEL COMES SPEWING OUT UNDER PRESSURE, SPILLING FUEL ALL OVER THE QUARTER PANEL AND BUMPER, AND ONTO THE GROUND, SPILLING APPROXIMATELY A GALLON OR SO. IT APPEARS THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES ON THIS FROM SEARCHING ONLINE, I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 151,000.

AROUND AUGUST 10, 2011, AS I WAS GETTING FUEL IT SPRAYED FUEL EVERYWHERE AFTER THE NOZZLE HAD STOPPED. I HAVE EVEN TRIED TO SLOW THE RATE OF FUEL AND THAT DOES NOT MATTER. EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK, IT SPRAYS EVERYWHERE. I TRIED DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND STILL NO LUCK. THIS POSES A SAFETY HAZARD AS ALL OF THE FUEL SPILLED ON THE VEHICLE, THE GROUND, AND ON MY CLOTHES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000. UPDATED 08/27/14*LJ UPDATED 09/16/2014 *JS

EACH AND EVERY TIME I'VE LET THE GAS PUMP AUTO-FILL THE TANK, GAS COMES SPURTING BACK OUT. I NO LONGER FILL UP THE TANK COMPLETELY AND HAVE TO MANUALLY STOP THE GAS PUMP, IN A SENSE, GUESSING AS TO WHEN THE TANK IS ALMOST FULL. *TR

EACH TIME I REFUEL MY 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED, GASOLINE SPEWS BACK FROM THE FILL NOZZLE ONTO THE VEHICLE AND GROUND. THE LAST TIME THIS OCCURRED, GASOLINE WAS SPLASHED ON AN INDIVIDUAL FUELING HIS VEHICLE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PUMP, RUINING HIS JEANS. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK THE FOLLOWING EVENTS TAKE PLACE: THE GAS STATIONS NOZZLE CLICKS WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. A BUBBLING SOUND IS HEARD FOLLOWED BY A GUSH OF GASOLINE SPEWING FROM THE FILL NECK ONTO ME AND THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT THIS FROM OCCURING IS TO TRY AND GUESS WHEN THE TANK IS NEARING FULL AND STOP PUMPING. I'VE READ NUMEROUS ARTICLE ABOUT IDENTIAL PROBLEMS. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE 2005 DURANGO BUT NO RECALL FOR THE 2006 DURANGO. I'VE CONTACTED DODGE AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT'D I'D BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING FOR. THEREFOR I HAVEN'T FIXED IT BECAUSE OF THE EXPENSE INVOLVED. *TT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH DOWN HILL THE BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED AND SMOKE EMITTED FROM THE BRAKES AND SMELLED AS IF THEY WERE ON FIRE. THE CONTACT WAS FORCED TO DRIVE ONTO THE EMERGENCY LANE. THE CHECK ENGINE AND AIR BAG LIGHTS BEGAN TO ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THERE WAS NO AIR BAG IN THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKES WERE CURRENTLY MAKING A GRINDING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER REPEATEDLY WHERE THEY CONTINUED TO TURN THE WARNING LIGHTS OFF; HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE DEALER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILED AND SHE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR HALF OF THE REPAIR COST. THE FAILURES OCCURRED IMMEDIATELY AFTER SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 91,000.

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE LAST YEAR MY FUEL TANK SPRAYS OUT GAS AFTER THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF. EVEN IF I DON'T USE THE GAS PUMP AUTO SHUTOFF WHILE FILLING AS SOON AS THE TANK IS FULL IT SPRAYS GAS OUT AND ALSO POURS DOWN THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE ONTO THE GROUND. I ALWAYS NEED TO TAKE WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID AND WASH OFF MY VEHICLE AND POUR IT ONTO THE GROUND SO THERE IS NOT A PUDDLE OF GAS SITTING ON THE GROUND. NOW I ONLY FILL MY TANK 1/2 FULL WHEN FUELING TO AVOID THIS ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING THE VEHICLE, FUEL SPEWED BACK OUT FROM THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS OF DIAGNOSIS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

EVERY TIME THIS VEHICLE IS FILLED TO FULL IT SPEWS GAS OUT OF THE TANK AT THE PUMP OPERATOR RESULTING IN GAS ON THE PERSON FUELING VEHICLE. WE HAVE TRIED SEVERAL SERVICE STATIONS THIS IS NOT A PUMP ISSUE THE ISSUE IS WITH THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE SPOKEN TO SEVERAL STATION ATTENDANTS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO THEM. I BELIEVE THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY BURNED BY A SPARK. *TR

GASOLINE SPEWS FROM FILLER NECK EVERY TIME WHEN I FILL TANK WITH GASOLINE. EVERY FILLING STATION I STOP AT IS THE SAME!! I SPILL GASOLINE ON ME, THE CAR, THE PAVEMENT. THE NOZZLE WILL NOT SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY. IF SOMEONE WERE TO THROW A CIGARETTE TOWARD ME THERE COULD BE A GASOLINE FIRE WITH ME IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. MY DEALER SAYS THERE MUST BE A PROBLEM WITH ME WHEN I FILL MY TANK. I AM 63 YEARS OF AGE, AND HAVE OWNED 15 CARS OR SO, WITH NO PROBLEMS LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO THAT HAS A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I FILL UP, THE GAS PRESSURE BUILDS UP IN THE TANK AND SPURTS OUT ALL OVER. I CAN ACTUALLY HEAR IT START GURGLING IN THE TANK. I HAVE BEEN COVERED WITH GASOLINE ON A SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE FIRST FEW TIMES, I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS SOMETHING I HAD DONE, OR THE GAS PUMP WHERE I WAS FILLING. BUT I RECENTLY WENT ON 2 TRIPS FROM FL TO NY AND BACK AND IT HAPPENED ALMOST EVERY FILL UP ON BOTH TRIPS WITHIN A MONTH, AS WELL AS FILL UPS IN BETWEEN AND AS I STATED, SOME PRIOR TO. THIS CREATED SEVERAL HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS. GASOLINE ON MY PERSON AND CLOTHING, INHALATION OF THE FUMES CAUSING ILLNESS, GASOLINE ON MY VEHICLE, GASOLINE ON THE PAVEMENT AT THE GAS PUMPS. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL POSTS ONLINE ABOUT MY EXACT PROBLEM SINCE IT HAPPENED. ONE PERSON IS PERSONALLY DOCUMENTING CASES. HE HAS OVER 120 + CASES HE IS AWARE OF, NOT INCLUDING MINE, THIS YEAR ALONE. THIS IS THE FIRST STEP I HAVE TAKEN AT THIS POINT, AS I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE IF IT IS HAPPENING WITH SUCH FREQUENCY. THESE ARE THE DOCUMENTED CASES JUST THROUGH ONE PERSON ONLINE, WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER CASES NOT DOCUMENTED. NOT TO MENTION PEOPLE WHO DON'T FILL THEIR TANKS ALL THE WAY WHO MAY HAVE THE ISSUE AND DO NOT EVEN KNOW IT. DOES SOMEBODY HAVE TO BE BURNED OR OTHERWISE INJURED, OVERCOME BY THE FUMES FIRST? HOW MANY INSTANCES MUST OCCUR BEFORE IT BECOMES A TRUE SAFETY CONCERN? DOES MY CHILD NEED TO FILL THE TANK AND MAYBE SWALLOW THE GASOLINE THAT SPURTS OUT? PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANYTHING IS IN THE WORKS. THE ONE INDIVIDUAL SAYS HE WAS INITIALLY LOOKING AT A $350 REPAIR BILL THAT WAS THEN LOWERED TO $100 AND THEN OFFERED FREE DUE TO HIS COMPLAINTS. I AGREE WITH HIM, IT LOOKS LIKE THEY WANT TO PAY HIM OFF TO SHUT HIM UP. MEANWHILE THEY MAKE MONEY OFF WHAT IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND I HAVE HAD MANY VEHICLES WITH MANY PROBLEMS. THIS ONE IS UNIQUE AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE.*KB

THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AT A REPAIR SHOP AND THE FAILURE WAS FOUND IN THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR AS WELL AS THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL SENSOR.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 127,000.

WHILE USING MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL, MY RIGHT BLINKERS CAME ON. WHILE USING MY RIGHT TURN SIGNAL, MY LEFT BLINKERS CAME ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WITHIN THE PAST YEAR. MORE RECENTLY, MY WIPERS WOULD WORK INTERMITTENTLY. ALSO, SOMETIMES MY BLINKERS DON'T WORK AT ALL. *TR

SINCE JULY OF 2011 AND EVERY GAS STATION STOP SINCE THEN MY WIFE AND I AVOID FILLING UP OUR TANK, AS THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT STOP FLOW OF GAS AT ANY PUMP WHEN IT REACHES FULL. INSTEAD IT GURGLES UP AND SPRAY FUEL BACK AT THE PERSON FILLING TANK (ME USUALLY), DOWN SIDE OF VEHICLE AND OF COURSE ALL OVER THE GROUND. AFTER REVIEWING OTHER REPORTS, IT IS APPARENT THERE ARE MAJOR AND CONSISTENT ISSUES OF THIS TYPE FOR THE 2006 DURANGO AND RECALLS FOR SAME ISSUE, ONLY FOR 2005 MODEL. SINCE THEN EVERYTIME WE FILL UP, IT IS A GUESSING GAME HOW CLOSE, AND I RUN BACK AND FORTH FROM PUMP HANDLE TO INTERIOR GAS GAUGE, BACK TO PUMP HANDLE AND SO ON. I'M SURE IT'S AMUSING TO EVERYONE ELSE THAT DOESN'T OWN THIS CHRYSLER PRODUCT. *TR

JUST PURCHASED 2006 DODGE DURANGO SLT ON TUESDAY, JUNE 22, 2011. WAS FILLING GAS TANK THIS EVENING, PUMP SHUT OFF AND ABOUT 1/2 A GALLON OF GASOLINE SPRAYED OUT OF THE VEHICLE, ALL OVER ME AND THE GROUND. THOUGHT I DID SOMETHING WRONG UNTIL I GOT HOME AND RESEARCHED THIS INCIDENT AND SEE THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON THING WITH THESE DURANGO'S AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT IF THIS WOULD HAVE SPRAYED INTO MY EYES? WHY WON'T CHRYSLER DO A RECALL ON THESE AND FIX THEM. I AM GOING TO BE SCARED NOW TO PUMP GAS WHEN I NEED IT!! I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 2 DAYS NOW........... PLEASE HELP US DURANGO OWNERS GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHRYSLER NEEDS TO HAVE A SERIOUS RECALL AND GET THIS FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. IT'S DOCUMENTED QUITE WELL THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE? *TR

DANGEROUS FUEL SAFETY PROBLEM ! WHEN FILLING GAS TANK, THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF AND APPROXIMATELY 1-2 PINTS OF GAS SHOOTS OUT OF THE FILLER NOZZLE. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT BRAND OF GAS PUMP, OR HOW MUCH FUEL IS DISPENSED. THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN FILLING UP. I HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS PROBLEM FOR THE PAST YEAR AND THE DEALER ISN'T ACKNOWLEDGING THE PROBLEM. I PLACED THE INCIDENT DATE SO AS TO MOVE TO NEXT PAGE OF THIS COMPLAINT. *TT

2006 DODGE DURANGO SPEWS FUEL WHEN TRYING TO FILL UP TANK. HAVE CHECKED ONLINE AND THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM. THE DURANGO WAS RECALLED IN 2005 FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. *KB

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO AND RECENTLY IT HAS STARTED DYING WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT ILLUMINATES AND THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. STEERING AND BRAKING BECOME VERY DIFFICULT AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. MY MECHANIC USED A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL AND SAID IT SHOWED A CODE FOR THE CAM SHAFT SENSOR, AND IT WAS REPLACED. HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER. THE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL SHOWED A CODE FOR THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR, AND IT WAS REPLACED. IT IS STILL HAPPENING. VEHICLE NEVER FAILS TO START AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE STOPPED BUT DUE TO THE DIFFICULTY IN STEERING AND BRAKING WHEN IT STALLS, I HAVE NEARLY HAD ACCIDENTS. PLEASE HELP! *TT

I JUST PURCHASED A USED 2006 DODGE DURANGO. EVERYTIME I FILL IT UP WITH GASOLINE, WHEN IT GETS FULL, GASOLINE OVERFLOWS FROM THE FILLER TUBE AND GETS ON THE GROUND AND ME. I HAVE READ ON DODGE FORUMS THAT THIS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG DURANGO OWNERS AND I FEEL IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TT

OUR DODGE CONSISTENTLY STALLS AND DIES WHEN SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT AND/OR SLOWING THE VEHICLE TO MAKE TURNS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE ENGINE DIES RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF BRAKES, STEERING,ETC. MULTIPLE TIMES THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK WITH OTHER VEHICLES OR HAS CAUSED US TO JUMP THE CURB ALMOST HITTING TREES, ETC. WE'VE ALSO HAD THIS HAPPEN PULLING TRAILERS AND BOATS. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I'D LIKE TO SEE DODGE ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

GAS SPITS OUT FORCEFULLY WHEN FUELING, LEAVING GAS ALL OVER THE FLOOR, ALONG THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, AND ON MY CLOTHES/SHOES. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME UNLESS I STOP FUELING BEFORE THE TANK FILLS UP. MAKES IT TOUGH TO GO ON LONG TRIPS BECAUSE I CAN NEVER HAVE A FULL TANK OF GAS. THIS HAS CONTINUED FOR OVER A YEAR. *TR

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FOR MY MOTHER. I FILLED THE TANK WITH GAS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS- WHEN THE TANK IS FULL GAS FLIES OUT OF THE TANK. MY MOTHER HAS KNOWN OF THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER, I HAVE NOT. I WAS TRYING TO BE NICE & FILL THE TANK FOR HER. I HEARD THE CLICK ON THE NOZZLE AS I STOOD LEANING AGAINST THE VEHICLE & WHEN I PULLED THE NOZZLE OUT GAS FLEW ALL OVER MY ARM & ATLEAST A FOOT IN THE AIR. OUTRAGEOUS! SHE SAID IT'S HAPPENED TO HER SO SHE JUST PUTS IN $50. *TR

THIS VIN HAS A RECURRING GASOLINE FUEL SPIT-BACK PROBLEM. FIRST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED AT APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES + 5 YEARS OWNERSHIP AND CONTINUES. VEHICLE CANNOT BE FUELED TO 'FULL' WITHOUT APPROXIMATELY 12 OUNCES OF FUEL SPIT-BACK AND OVERFLOW ONTO VEHICLE BODY AND GROUND. EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS. NOT COVERAGE BY RECALL OR WARRANTY. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED WITH THE 5.7L MOTOR. EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS IT SPEWS OUT EXCESS GASOLINE. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GAS STATION. THE VEHICLE HAS 72,500 MILES ON IT AND THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED FOR THE LAST 12,000 MILES. I HAVE CONTACTED VARIOUS DEALERS AND I GO THRU THE SAME ROUTINE: VIN REFERENCE, THEN THEY PROCEED TO TELL ME IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, AND THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE ISSUE, AND TO CONTACT DODGE CORPORATE FOR ASSISTANCE. WHEN I CONTACT CORPORATE I FOLLOW THE STEPS AND THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THEY CANNOT ASSIST ME AT THAT TIME. I CAN NEVER TALK TO A REAL PERSON. I HAVE A FAMILY AND I DO NOT WANT A FIRE LEADING TO MY FAMILIES ENDANGERMENT. *TR

2006 DODGE DURANGO WITH MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH ISSUES. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK ONLY ON A SLOW INTERMITTENT SPEED. ONLY THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL WORKS, AND WILL ACTIVATE WHEN THE TURN SIGNAL LEVER IS PUSHED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN (THE RIGHT SIGNAL ONLY WILL BLINK). THIS SWITCH WAS ALSO REPLACED IN 2008 BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE WAS 40,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AT THAT POINT. THERE IS NOW 75,000 MILES. *TR
