My 2005 dodge durango limited (hemi) spews about 1 quart of gas out of the filler tube every time I fill up with gas. Dealer says my VIN # ( mfg. Date 3/05) is not covered by their 1st or 2nd recall. I called chrysler's customer care @ 1‑800‑853‑1403 and was told although I appear to have the problem associated with the recall, they will not do anything because my vehicle now has 150,000 miles on it. The problem started approx. April 2009. I have learned to stand to the side when I fill up so I don't get drenched with gasoline when I fill up !
Anytime I fuel, my j2005 durango spits a lot gasoline out of the filler neck. It does not matter how fast I fuel or whether or not I top off the tank. I called dodge and was told that chrysler/dodge will not include my 2005 durango vehicle in the fuel tank recall as noted in your campaign number 09v003000 or 05v3400, even though I had the same issue the recalls were to fix. I was told my mileage was to high to be included in a recall. The first incident was in feb of 09 & now it is every time I fuel.
When fueling the vehicle, after the pump has shut off, fuel will shoot out of the fuel fill hole. This has done this repeatedly, and is to the point where it does it everytime the vehicle is filled up. When this happens, fuel is all over the ground, shoes, pants and anything else near the fuel cap. This is beginning to concern me as this is an extreme fire hazard. Recalls for the 2005 dodge durango were researched and our particular VIN# is not under the recall list. No repairs were attempted. Date listed below is the last time this incident happened.
There was no incident that LED to this happening. It seemed to begin for no reason. Whenever I fill my gas tank, if I do not stop the pump before the tank is full, it overflows. This happens any time I fill the tank full. A significant amount of gasoline spills when this happens. Dodge issued a recall for this exact problem on 26,000 other 2005 dodge durangos, but refuses to include my vehicle in this recall #05v‑034. I have no repaired the problem.

This allows fuel to escape from the vehicle through the filler neck at the end of refueling. He called the manufacturer in reference to recall # 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline:storage:tank assembly). He was advised that since his vehicle identification number was excluded from the recall they were not obligated to assume responsibility for failures. The failure mileage was 75,000.
Gasoline gushes out of gas tank upon refueling. Dodge durango 2005. This occurs every time the vehicle is refueled. Gas covers the rear quarter panel and under surfaces of the vehicle as well as the gas station ground and equipment (and anyone standing near the refueling area). Chrysler refuses to include my vehicle in the recall to pay for the repair.

Vehicle gas tank overflows when gas is pumped until gas pump autostops. A large amount of fuel spills out in 1-5 seconds after. I have had this happen over two years now. Dealer seems to not want to fix. Recalls are conveniently not for the vehicle in question. Seems small amount of VIN qualify.
My 2005 dodge durango's tank overflows when refueling. I have contacted dodge and am waiting on a response. This is very unsafe and I know their is recall but my VIN doesn't seem to be included.
Gasoline shoots out the filler neck and does not shut off automatic fuel pumps. This happens all the time unless I manually fill the tank at a very slow rate for the last few gallons. Gas spills on whoever is filling car, soaking clothing with gas and can spray in attendants face due to the height of the filler neck.

When filling vehicle with fuel, gas spews out all over car ground and people, creating a fire hazard at a very bad time .
2005 dodge durango: when fueling the vehicle to full the vehicle spits gas back at you and this isn't a small amount either. This occurs mostly when fueling the vehicle to full. This has happened since we purchased the vehicle in december 2008. There is a recall number: 09v003000 and 05v034000; chrysler claims my vehicle had the recalled performed, but I think they never fixed the problem.
I have a 2005 dodge durango slt I had 3 separate incidents, at 3 different gas stations in which I would go to fill the tank and gas continues to overflow. I checked for recalls regarding this and found that chrysler has one for this, which is h45 or 09v003000. I notified chrysler at the number given (ref #18975878) and was advised that eventhough my vehicle was not in the recall campaign, I could go to a certified dealer and pay the diagnostic fee and if they found that I had the defect described, they would cover the repair. I went to holden dodge in dover, de and they found the vehicle to have the exact problem described in the recall where my inlet check valve sticks open. When they contacted chrysler, holden dodge was advised that my vehicle was out of warranty and I was the 3rd owner and they would not honor the repair. It should not matter if I was the 50th owner, it is their defect!! I was advised that this recall was for vehicles manufactured in october 2004 and my vehicle was manufactured in january 2005. It is hard to believe that they corrected this malfunction in 3 months since I am experiencing this defect. I want chrysler to honor the tank replacement under warranty since a certified dealer has confirmed that this was my problem. I oaid the $80.00 diagnostic fee as advised and chrysler did not hold to their promise when I originally called. Was given a quote of $669.00 to replace he tank, which I cannot afford. So right now, I do not fill the tank with gas. Please help me to get this issue resolved and have chrysler honor their defect!!!!
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. When inserting fuel in the fuel tank the gasoline will regurgitate. Also the fuel gauge on the instrument control panel displays inaccurate readings. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for inspection. Although he experienced identical failure, his vehicle identification number was excluded from recall campaign id number 05v034000 (fuel system, gasoline:storage:tank assembly:filler pipe and cap). The failure and current mileages were 64,841. The vehicle identification number was unavailable.
Bought a 2005 dodge durango and checking recalls found that the problem I have with refuel overfilling was recalled. I contacted the dodge dealership and was told my vehicle was not part of the recall. However I could change it for a charge. Every single time I fill up, I must watch and stop it before it is full or gas spurts out all over the area. This is definitely a fire hazard. I feel I should not have to pay for a problem that is being recalled.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. He received recall campaign notice number 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline:storage:tank assembly). The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for repair. However, the recall remedy was not performed due to the unavailability of the part required for the repair. The authorized dealer was notified on two separate occasions regarding the part being on back order. No repairs have been made. The current mileage was 60,000.
Related to the federal safety agency recall campaign 09v003000, the federal safety agency rq08005... My dodge durango - exactly same problem as described yet apparently not included in the recall. Internet search leads me to believe that several hundreds of other durango owners have the same complaint. This has been an on-going problem over the last several months.
This is regarding the latest safety recall notice h45 to my 2005 dodge durango SUV to the fuel tank inlet check valve. Since receiving this notice I have taken my car to dodge dealer in mount airy, maryland, a total of six times, which does not include visits to order parts and return when the part was received, approximately twelve time, I've been to this dealer. I have been very patient trying to work with dodge, but I am losing patience, as well as any confidence in chryslers statement 'we're sorry for any inconvenience, but we are sincerely concerned about your safety' as stated in their notice. Each time they have worked on my car, and I fill the tank, it continues to spew gas all over me, my car, the ground, until one day given the situation, gas fumes igniting and starting a critical mishap. This is a dangerous situation and chrysler refuses to address, on my behalf. After my third visit, I attempted to contact chrysler at 800‑853‑1403, with my frustrations, and was told there was nothing they could do, and I needed to work with my dealer in mt. Airy to resolve the problem. This latest visit, october 19, 2009, where they supposedly replaced the entire tank, has left me with additional problems. The engine light stays on if fuel is below a quarter of a tank (which has never occurred before) and the odometer statement (where the numbers are) reads 'gascap', even though I replace the gas cap no differently than I have for the past five years. I am very concerned about my safety as well as anyone that happens to be around me at the time of fill-up. Please advise me on anything that I can do at this point. I am speaking with an attorney, but don't feel that I should have to go this route. Your prompt reply is requested.
Fuel spills out of filler neck every time I try to fuel up no matter what station or how slowly I try to fill. I get gasoline all over my vehicle, myself, and the ground. Dodge dealer told me it needs a fuel tank replaced at $750. I find a recall on this exact problem for 2005 durangos, but they tell me it doesn't apply to mine. Same problem, same vehicle - are they yanking my chain?
Chrysler has recalled 2005 durango's made during a certain time for fuel component failures. (recall id # 09v003000) even though I did not receive a recall notice my vehicle is experiencing the same problem and was diagnosed with the same problem. However, chrysler states that my problem is a result of component failure and they will not assist in any way in correcting the problem. The dealer will not assist me except to offer me a 20% discount on parts and labor. My son-in-law's 2005 dodge truck also has the same problem as well as a 2007 chrysler aspen purchased by a friend of mine. I believe this problem is way more wide spread than chrysler is willing to admit. The problem is that when I auto fill my gas tank, when the auto shut off kicks in, gas gushes out of the tank, runs down the car and puddles on the ground. I have taken a video of this and will be posting it to youtube. If you would like a copy of the video, please contact me. This problem started roughly 2 years after I purchased the vehicle.
Fuel sprays out of filler neck when gas tank is full when fueling. Approximately 1/4 gallon.
When filling the gas tank, the gas will spill out of the hole when it is about full. This will occur every time you try to fill up the tank unless you stand beside the tank and listen to when you think it is about full. Since this has happened, we have had the gas tank replaced. Daimlerchrysler put a recall on 26,000 vehicles for this same type of complaint. It is complaint # e01, but when I called them, they are stating that since my vehicle was not listed, it was not part of the recall and are doing nothing about it. It is the exact same complaint that the recall was for.
