I have a 2006 dodge durango and when you fill the fuel tank, fuel gushes out of the pipe when the pump shuts off. This happens every time. It is the same thing that the 2005 durangos were recalled for. I'd like mine recalled. 2005 recall the federal safety agency campaign number: 09v003000 and09v003000. 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.
I have a 2006 dodge durango and for the past few months every time I fill my gas tank and it even gets remotely close to full it sprays fuel at me everywhere and spills tons on the ground. I can't leave it for a second and it can't get full or it's horrible. I see that the 2005 durango's had a big recall for the same exact incident but nothing for the 2006's. I called the dealership and I'm told that the whole fuel tank needs to be replaced. This is a huge safety issue do to the amount of gas that sprays out and nothing can really be done to stop it except me pay to replace it or to not fill my tank which is a pain. My vehicle is not that old for this to be happening. Why is 2005 covered but not 2006?
2006 dodge durango has a fuel issue*cw the consumer stated after filling the gas tank, gas would shoot out of the filler tube. The consumer stated the 2005 models were recalled, but not the 2006 even though it has the same problem. *jb updated 03/04/10.
I have a 2006 dodge durango and every time I fill it up the tank overflows when the automatic nozzle shuts off. This is a safety problem especially when your standing in a pool of gasoline. When researching this problem on the web several 2006 durango owners responded on the dodge forum with the same problem. Apparently the 2005 durango had the same problem, but was recalled and fixed. Dealers want to fix with a $600 to $700 new tank instead of admitting that it's really a design problem. You should look into this problem before someone gets blown up.
Gasoline spits out of fuel filler neck on 2006 dodge hemi durango whenever the tank is filled. Vehicle purchased new in june 2006. Fuel spillage issue began in approximately june 2009 at about 75,000 miles. I have cleaned all of the vents and filler tubes to no avail. Problem continues. Identical to failures recalled by campaigns 05v034000 and 09v003000 which claimed the problem had been resolved by a manufacturing change to the fuel inlet check valve.
Some fuel escapes from the vehicle through the filler neck of the fuel tank filler tube at the end of refueling. Maybe inlet check valve not fully close at the end of refueling. Just like 2005 recall but no recall issued on 2006. I've gotten sprayed with gas 6 times so far (about a pint each time) when filling tank.
I have a 2006 dodge durango and when you fill the fuel tank, fuel gushes out of the pipe when the pump shuts off. Even when you pump it slowly near the end, this occurs. Sometimes it can almost be a half a gallon all over the ground and shoes and clothes.
I just purchased a 2006 dodge durango slt and everytime we fill the tank gas shoots out of the filler neck. You can hear it forcefully coming up the fill tube after the nozzle clicks off. If you slowly continue filling then you can top off the tank with another 5 gallons. This has happened several times and covered me with gas while standing over 3 feet away from the vehicle.
When fueling vehicle gas will discharge from the filler neck prior to valve closing on fuel filler hose. Occurs at multiple fill stations and is not specific to one fuel pump. Defect and complaints noted for 2005 model year appear to be present in 2006 model year. No damage or replacement has occurred to oem fuel system. Failure occurs with every fueling for the past six months. Failure involves environmental and safety impacts for discharge of raw fuel while fueling.

2006 dodge durango fuel discharges uncontrollably when re-fueling, attributed to check valve (defective) - possibly attributed to ethanol content in the fuel that has degregated the check valve? Dodge is aware of this issue and wants near 1,000 dollars to correct by replacing the entire fuel tank.
Dodge durango vehicles, fuel tank filler tube inlet check valve does not fully close at the end of refueling . This allows some fuel to escape from the vehicle through the filler neck at the end of refueling. Consequence: fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.

I have a 2006 dodge durango, an excessive amount of fuel spillage from the fuel tank. The failure occurs whenever fuel is dispensed into the fuel tank, followed by fuel spraying out of the tank. The fuel nozzle stops when the tank was full with fuel continuously spraying out of the tank. The dealer has the vehicle and is replacing the carbon canister. The symptoms are the same as recall 05v‑034.
When you fill the tank it spews gas all over you this happens every time you fill the tank! The pump handle clicks off then here comes the gas it sprays everywhere.
Just purchased used 2006 dodge durango limited upon filling the fuel tank for the first time fuel pump shut off after about 4 gallons and gasoline spewed from tank and filler neck, continued to do the same thing unless I filled the tank very slowly. This seems to be pretty common problem with the durango and is potentially a serious safety hazard not only to the people filling the vehicle but to others around, not to mention potential damage to vehicle finish.
Every time I fill up my gas tank, it spews gas out at me instead of shutting off the pump. It doesn't matter if I hold the pump or put the stopper thing (not sure the correct name) on, until I physically let go of the handle it continues to overflow. The last fill up it actually went all over me!! I called chrysler and have a reference # if needed. I have a 2006 dodge durango limited, but I have owned it for less than 1 year. It has 70000 miles. I have checked to see if there is a recall, but none exist yet. However, there is a recall on the 2005 durango. I feel this is a major safety issue and I would hate to see someone injured--myself, my children, someone else who pulls up at the gas station after I have left and drops a cigarette or something causing an explosion, etc.....
When I fill the 2006 dodge durango fuel tank with gasoline the pump does not shut off and fuel sprays fuel all over the car, ground and people if in the way. The 2005's were recalled for this. It says there is a problem with the fuel filler vent. It happens at every station regardless of retailer.
2006 dodge durango that spills fuel from the filler tube when refueling. Exactly as stated in the 2005 dodge durango campaign 05v034000, however 2006 is not included.
Fuel overflow spills out of gas tank when the tank gets full. Spillage amount is between 1/4 and 1/3 of a gallon each tine the tank is filled to the top. The fuel spits out of the fill receptacle like it is under pressure.
Purchased 2006 dodge durango new in october 2006. Sometime in 2009 this began: when you refuel the vehicle, the check valve in the fuel tank does not close at the end of refueling and fuel sprays out from the vehicle filler neck. This occurs nearly every time I refuel. Consequences: fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire. I contacted dodge to inform them of this. I took the durango to my dealer and they informed me that I have to order a new fuel tank which is about $700.00 installed. The dealer service representative also informed me the fuel tanks were on back order due to so many being replaced.
When filling the fuel tank on my 2006 dodge durango, gasoline surges out of fuel tank onto the vehicle, the ground and the person filling the vehicle if they are standing too close. As much as a 1/2 pint of fluid may surge out once the tank has been completely filled. This happens every time unless you are filling the tank very slowly. It appears that the paint is being damaged from the gasoline running down the side of the vehicle onto the ground.
