There are 2 owner-reported fuel system complaints for the 2025 Dodge Durangoin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
My fuel tank was practically emptied by "gas thieves". The fuel filler compartment remains unlocked regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked. And the filler tube where the gas nozzle is inserted is capless, with just a rubber seal that expands when the nozzle is inserted. In previous models Dodge used to have a button inside the cabin right below the headlights switch to release the fuel filler door, and a safety puller string in the back of the vehicle, should the button fail to release the locked door. Not anymore, and this appears to be a cost saving change/decision in detriment of the consumer. This lack of safety feature is also true for RAM 1500 pick up trucks. Dodge does not offer a locking cap option for the capless fuel filler tube, nor could I find an aftermarket one. A major concern of mine is what would happen should the vehicle roll down or lay on a side? Would the fuel in the tank come gushing out, and possibly cause a fire or even an explosion? Will appreciate your further investigation and response to this issue.
