As I was refueling I noticed in the pump that it was at 29 gallons but it was still filling up and my tank wasn't empty so right away I knew something was wrong and looked on the bottom that it was spilling all the gas I'm thinking from the inside of the filler neck or hose but from under the car so something is wrong because it didn't stop filling up, thx
2006 Dodge Durango fuel system complaints
Page 4 of 20: complaints 71 to 100 of 552, newest first, as owners wrote them.
After buying the vehicle in 2009, it began shutting off when I decelerated for stops or turns. No engine light warning. In 2009, took it to the dealership 4 times. No help. Issues have continued. Took to dealership in 2010 3-4 times for same issue. Seems to shut off more in winter than summer but is very random. In 2011, more exploratory work was completed at dealership. Is there a lemon law? In 2012, I had someone else tinker on it. Still no assistance. The issues are less annoying now and becoming dangerous as it now shuts off at any time, at any speed, in any weather. I've tried new brakes, couple of new batteries, new computer chip, complete visual overall with computer assistance at dealership. Once when check engine light came on, o'reily's computer said that the sensor box had moisture in it. Dealership found no such evidence. All maintenance like oil changes are up-to-date. In 2013 in addition to the shutting off, there is a bumping when the brakes are applied and no one can contribute that issue to anything either! No help. Scared to drive but no $$ get a new one. I feel abandoned with a lemon.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. The contact state that after refueling, the fuel would spew back out without warning. The failure recurred multiple times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The mechanic stated that the tank filler had malfunctioned and the fuel tank needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in recall the federal safety agency campaign number: 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline). The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
Upon first purchasing at a dealership the purchase was as a used vehicle, so no warranty is or was in place. A few months later when filling the tank at a gas station the first incident of propulsion of gasoline forcing out of the tank, first happened. Then a couple of times when trying to start the vehicle the motor would not start. Using an obd to check codes there was no error codes but still ended up clearing it anyways which allowed the vehicle to start (which means its the computer). Now, the front passenger window is down and will not go back up, checked the motor and the motor for the window is fine, but checking the switch it would only unlock door, not allow lock and absolutely no window control at all from either the passenger door switch or driver side switch. When looking at the switches turns out that the circuit boards are not soldered. The only way to get any of the problems fixed for anyone now would be for a recall, because the year being 2014 no warranty will cover any problems that I or anyone else is facing!
Every time I refuel, gas comes squirting out of my tank. There is now lumps and bumps on the body of my car now under the gas tank. I have to keep checking my gas gauge while re fueling so this does not happen.
Literally every singe time I fill the vehicle up, gasoline erupts from the tank, sprays everywhere, probably sprays a full yard away from the vehicle. The fuel spray has rusted out the fender below the fuel door.
1996 dodge durango. I have 2006 dodge durango limited 5.7 liter hemi - I bought used car salesman it in december 2012. In february of 214 we started having a problem with the engine cutting off while driving after reading several different internet forums I discovered the engine failure with my dodge durango was a common problem. Like others I have taken it in to our mechanic's because the check engine light had come on. We always got oil changes and regular maintenance done at our mechanic's because we thought they would know the car best and be able to inform us of any important recalls or possible problems. I asked him about the problem, he in turned told me that he knew about the dodge durango engine failure problem. He also said dodge knows about it, but there has been no recall for this problem. I am afraid that someone is going to get killed on the road because the engine turns off at any time. It is a same that dodge is pulling the same thing as general motors has done. Pleaase lets fix this before someone does get killed. So I am here with my 2006 dodge durango parked in my drive just waiting for recall. It is getting closer because yesterday they just recalled the 2005,2006,2007 jeep because chrysler said on tuesday that it was recalling an undisclosed number of older jeep s.u.v.s to correct an ignition-related stalling problem similar to the deadly flaw that has consumed general motors this year. How also owns dodge so I know they know about the dodges problems. At this point my senator richard blumenthal office can not do a thing, because I have not been hurt or killed as of yet. It feels like.
I have two issues with my durango. During fueling the pump does not shut off causing an overflow of gas on the ground, on my shoes, etc. This is an ongoing issue that has been happening since we purchased the vehicle. My mechanic thinks it is a sensor issue but dodge has not recalled the vehicle to fix it. The second issue is I can take my key out of the ignition while the engine and ignition are in the run position, lock the car and take the key with me and the engine will run like the key is in the ignition.
Spit back when fueling.
Fuel spills out when filling the tank.
The first time I filled up a newly purchased used dodge durango gas exploded out of the filler neck splashing onto my hand and into my face. I had to dash into the restroom and flush gas out of my eyes.
I bought my 2006 dodge durango used with 119,000 miles in november 2013. Every time I fill up, the gas overflows. I always fill-up when stopping for gas because I drive an hour, one way, into town and have to get gas often. Regardless of how I pump gas it always overflows. I have tried pumping fast, pumping slow, and putting the nozzle all the way in. I have a two year daughter and I am concerned this overflow may ignite a fire.
When I filled my car with gas it the pump kicked off but fuel came spilling out from the tank. The fuel spilled over me, the car and the ground. At first I thought it was a one time thing but it has happened numerous times, even when I have not filled the tank completely. This has now caused serious rust around my tank and through the corner panel. It has now rusted through completely. I am afraid of the safety of the tank and filling the tank with gas. Not to mention the cost of lost gas.
Fuel over flows out of the filler tube every time I fill the tank.
Vehicle was purchased used in april of 2012 and the fuel overflow was noticed immediately upon purchase. Seller informed that it was a national problem with all durango vehicles and there was no fix. In the meantime, the fuel overflows at each refill and has caused me to immediately wash down the area (while fueling) to prevent fire and additional corrosion.
Vehicle spots has everywhere when putting gas in. Can not put over 3/4 tank in or a least a gallon is coming back on your feet & ground. The paint is also rusting under the gas cap now due to this issue. I have noticed that this is an issue with this model year and there are numerous online complaints. The 2005. Was recalled due to the same issue. This year also should be recalled and fixed!
Filling up with gas the nozzle clicks and a few seconds later gas will shoot out of the tank.
Gas overflows after fuel bump stops during every fill up.
Problem when refilling the gas tank. When the tank gets full, fuel sprays out of the gas tank fill port. At first I thought it was faulty equipment at the gas station but it has happened consecutive times at different gas stations. Probably sprays out 8 or 12 ounces.
When fueling the vehicle the gas pump clicks off then fuel spews out the filler neck of the vehicle this has caused the paint to come off and a hole to rust in the side of the vehicle just under the fuel cap.
Every time we fill up, the gas spills out. By the time the nozzle clicks, it's too late and the fuel gushes out of the tank. My daughter was near me when it happened the first time! I've used various gas stations, but it always happens. It has to be the inlet check valve in the tank. It is not user error. Now I have to sit there forever and pump slow, or just go with half a tank, and in colorado, it's not safe to do that if we break down in the cold and snow. No one fills the tank except me due to obvious safety reasons. I called dodge years ago and they said it would fall on me to pay for their problem! Now, it's just getting annoying that this still has not been resolved even though there are numerous complaints.
The shut off valve has not worked correctly for over the past year. When filling the gas tank gas is spit back on the car and driveway service. This happens even if I pause for a period during filling the tank to let pressure release. My dealer says they have never heard of this, had to believe with so many complaints all over the internet. I would like dodge to step up and take care of the problem. Help.......
When fueling fuel spits back out fuel fill after fill nozzle shuts off. Spilling down the side and on the ground.
My 2006 dodge durango spills gas everytime I fill it completely up. I insert the fuel nozzle from the gas pump put it on half fill and let the fuel flow until it shuts off at the handle about 2 seconds later fuel comes squirting out of the durangos gas receptacle! It does this everytime you fill the vehicle up, and has done it since 2008. Dodge needs to do a recall and fix this!!!!
When filling fuel tank, when tank is full, gas will spill out filler neck. The spilled gas splashes everywhere, and has been on the body below the filler neck enough times that it has caused the paint to lift, and a rust hole to form in the fender. No other rust on vehicle.
During refueling. Once the gas nozzle clicks and the tank is full a great amount of gasoline spews out of the tank. Does not matter what gas station is used. Happens every time and is a definite fire risk. Multiple searches online demonstrate hundreds of results and videos about this exact issue.
When filling the fuel tank , if the fuel nozzle is allowed to auto shut off the tank will spew pressurized fuel back out of te filler neck all over the pump, ground and vehicle.
While filling the gas tank, the pump shuts off, then fuel pours out of the filler. This happens at any gas station, and almost every time we fill up the tank. This an an extreme hazard and a very costly inconvenience. Every time we fill up, gas is wasted, the car becomes a dangerous and horribly smelling hazard. Dodge recalled the 2005 durango for the same issue, but has yet to do the same for the following model year!
You can not fill the gas tank over 3/4 full as it will result in a massive fuel spillage out of the filler neck. The backwash out of the tank will cover you and the side of the car and you with fuel. It does not matter what kind of fuel station is filling it happens every time. If there was any kind of spark a large fire would occur.
Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. The contact stated that while refueling, fuel spewed from the filler neck. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was found that the fuel tank assembly needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was not available.
