When you fill the vehicle with gas, the pump will not shut off. This is resulting in gasoline spraying out of the opening. This sprays gas all over the person filling the vehicle, down the side of the vehicle and the ground.

I have researched this with the national highway safety board website and see there is a hundreds of complaints from feburary 2005 thru present .. There was an investigation opened in 2005 pe05-027 then it was transferred to an engineering analysis ( ea05-018) and then nothing.. I would like to know if the federal safety agency dropped the ball on this?? There is no further answers to the complaint.. Please advise me what do I have to do to get a n answer to this problem, which is a manufactures error that is going to get me killed or someone else.
When fueling vehicle the fuel will unpredictable overflow and cause gasoline to pour on vehicle and unto the ground. Enough fuels overflows to cause puddles of gasoline to form on the ground. If you are standing close to intake it will spray fuel on person operating the pumb. The problem is causing rusting on vehicle.
Gas comes spewing out of the tank when I'm filling up at the gas station. This only happens with I'm trying to "fill" the tank, at the end of the filling when the pump should stop due to the tank being full. It does not spew out if I'm just putting "some" gas in the tank. This happens at all gas stations so it seems as though this is an issue with the vehicle and not the pump. I've had this problem for several years and just found information on the federal safety agency campaign number 09v003000 report receipt date 01/08/2009. This seems to be the same issue I'm having however I was told, today, that my VIN # is not included in the 2005 dodge durango vehicles listed in the recall. Safety recall number h45 - fuel tank inlet check valve. How do I go about possibly getting my vehicle added to the recall list for this issue? This has been an ongoing issue since I've owned the vehicle. I purchased it brand new in september of either 2004 or 2005.

When filling the gas tank (at any station) the check valve engages too early causing fuel to shoot out of the filler tube. Supposedly this was fixed but either a faulty one was installed or the work was never done (previous owner). Vehicle was also supposedly not covered under recall based on the VIN but matched the manufacture date but not serial number. No one has an answer why it is still doing this?

When fueling, there is no shutoff so fuel goes everywhere. Dealership says problem was fixed but it is not fixed. It has been doing this since I purchased the vehicle. It is very unsafe and causes a wet slippery surface at gas pump, along with gas leakage down the side of vehicle, which has created rust now.
I am making a complaint that chrysler did not issue a recall based on the federal safety agency recall campaign number : 09v003000. I have a 2005 dodge durango that has had a defective inlet check valve in the fuel tank that has allowed gas to flow back up the fill line during filling of the tank. I had questioned the local dealership in the passed that there was a recall for this issue in vehicles of the year of my vehicle, but I was told this issue did not pertain to my vehicle since this issue was remedied on vehicles made after 01 october of that year. I told them mine was still having the problems listed. According to the recall number 09v003000, chrysler was supposed to recall the vehicles built up to 11/30 of that year. According to what I have found out today this did not occur, they placed an extended warranty on this issue. So instead of informing dealerships and owners of the issue, they would only fix it if the owners had the issue of the check valve not working properly. Well, I have had the issue for almost the whole time I've had my vehicle(11/17/08), and I've brought it up to the local service shop a few times, and I was always told there was no listing of my vehicle requiring the repair to be done. This is quite frustrating because for years I have not been able to fill my gas tank up completely due to fuel coming back up the tube and spraying all over my clothes. Once I talked to a representative with chrysler about the issue and the federal safety agency number today I was informed about the extended warranty on the part, they said the identifier was (x48). Afterwards I contacted the local dealership to set up an appointment to have a diagnosis performed to determine if my vehicle had the problem. The dealership could not find anything relating to x48 extended warranty for my vehicle.
Vehicle spits gas from fuel tank inlet & smells of fuel outside of the vehicle.
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.

2005 dodge durango. Consumer writes in regards to the fuel tank inlet valve recall notice issues. *smd the consumer stated he has been trying for more than 18 months to get chrysler to honor the recall. To date, with no success. Right after purchasing the vehicle, the consumer began to experience a serious problem with gas spilling out of the tank as it was being filled. The problem subsequently returned and the dealer gave him cosmetic explanations. After the vehicle, nearly caught on fire, it prompted the consumer to investigate and he soon discovered a recall had been issued for the same problem he experienced.

More than a gallon of fuel spills out if you fill up the gas tank
When filling the fuel tank, gasoline shoots out of the tank once the tank is full and after the pump handle has detected the tank being full and has shut off. I understand from talking to the local dealer, chrysler customer service and many comments on the internet that chrysler recalled certain 2005 durango's made in specific plants with specific parts. I was told by the dealer and by chrysler customer service that our durango was not recalled. I don't understand why only certain vehicles were recalled when others with the same issue were not recalled. This is a real safety concern for us. Gasoline gets on us and our clothes our skin and on the ground. Could start fire if a spark was nearby. A new tank cost $1300 plus labor which we can't afford. Please help us stay safe.
When I fill the gas tank up gas comes back out the gas tank and goes on the ground and gets on the vehicle and on clothing. I have tried numerous gas stations and it happens all the time. I checked to see if there is a recall on my vehicle and there is not, but they have recalls on the same year and model as mine. This is a big safety issue and health issue because the gas comes in contact with your skin and risk of fire and environmental concerns when the gas goes on the ground.
Large evap leak - code p0455: inlet & outlet fuel tank rings have rusted out. Previous recall e01 repaired in 2010 complete. After effects from previous fuel leakage has caused rust damage to the fuel tank connector rings. The safety of the vehicle is a huge concern as this can cause the vehicle to catch on fire at any time. Solution recommended: replace fuel tank & fuel pump.
While filling the fuel tank, when the pump kicks off fuel spits back out of the fuel tank on the ground, the vehicle, and me (if I am standing close). I have found numerous complaints and conversations on the internet regarding this problem. Some are referenced below: the federal safety agency investigation #rq08005 LED to recall #09v003000 the federal safety agency reference #10051769: tsb #sb-14-002-13; customer satisfaction campaign #csc-10051769-3696 warranty bulletin #d-13-09: subject: (x48) fuel tank inlet check valve (fuel filler tube) purpose of bulletin: to announce an extended warranty on the fuel tank inlet check valve on 2005-2006 dodge durango vehicles stating: "this warranty extension coverage is unlimited time and miles." I took my vehicle to benchmark-chrysler-dodge-jeep-ram, 1313 grants mill way, birmingham, alabama 35210, (205) 957-1313 for this problem. They advised me up front that I would be charged $105 to diagnose the vehicle, but that I would be reimbursed if the problem was covered under any recalls or warranties. After the diagnosis they said they needed to start by replacing the filler neck and if that does not fix the problem they would need to replace the fuel tank. They said this would not be covered under the lifetime warranty nor the recall for this problem. After leaving benchmark I had to fill up the vehicle and I videoed the fuel spit-back when the pump shut off. I feel that this is a serious safety issue and it is documented that they have acknowledged that this year and model vehicle has a problem, but they do not want to take responsibility for correcting the problem.
When fueling my durango approaching the 90% capacity, gas gushes out of the fuel tank causing fuel spray also additional rust damage on my fender under the fuel door.
