2005 DODGE Durango

Key won’t turn the ignition and the Red Anti-theft light keeps blinking on and off.

Gas leak

I’m a Single parent with a disable child also with some heart related issues myself as well with some back issues myself My name is Natalie Geisselhardt Just bought this Dodge Durango 2005 Hemi 5.7L in 2013 From Leith Chrysler Jee Dodge Jeep here in Raleigh, N.C. in September or October of 2013 been having problems with this truck every since Just bought a Battery for the Truck through AAA. For $138.00 Also Bought a Alternator From Auto Zone For $202.00 Also paid someone to put it on for me I had a leak in the Free on area plugged
I also had Freeon put in the truck twice in 2 years AAA said there is a leak in the exhaust all 4 brakes are old that must be replaced this is a $800.00 job the engine needs a new belt
The barrings needs to be replaced on the front of the truck to keep the axle & wheels from coming off this is a $1,800.00 repair The Windows does not roll down might be in the Computer system in the Truck this is a $3,500.00 repair I feel Robbed please contact me (919)341-6435

truck shifts in & out of 4wd on it’s own while driving, 4wd indicators go on & off randomly, when doors are unlocked or opened you hear something trying to engage on & off under truck, investigated problem reveals it’s an electrical issue with the TIPM and/or A/C sensor shorting out

The transmission and differential problems were solved while vehicle was under warranty. This complaint is about the fuel system:

SUMMARY: Fuel escapes from vehicle at the end of refueling.

CONSEQUENCE: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.

REMEDY REQUESTED: Have dealer replace the fuel tank assembly free of charge, as in the recall of the same description for other 2005 Dodge Durangos – NHTSA Campaign ID #09V003000, Chrysler recall #H45.

Previously made a few attempts to get Chrysler dealer in Burlington, NJ to effect repair, but Customer Service Manager Kevin Dyson claimed he couldn’t duplicate problem. I was not with the vehicle when he allegedly attempted to duplicate problem. Mr. Dyson was untruthful when I confronted him last year about Chrysler corporate knowing of the problem and that it should be repaired at no charge to customer.

Now that I’ve found the NHTSA website info and the H45 recall info, I made another attempt:
I contacted Chrysler. Case Manager “Ray” assigned me Case #20731164 on April 25, 2011, but told me on April 28, 2011 that I would have to pay a copay for the repair. I objected to a copay, and told him that I would be contacting NHTSA. I did, and I’m contacting other organizations, also.

Can you assist me? Thank you.

VEHICLE STALLING FOR NO REASON AT SLOW SPEEDS OR WHILE TURNING NO WARNING JUST DIES WITH STEERING LOCKING UP MUST BE PLACED IN PARK AND RESTARTED

The fuel tank inlet filler tube check valve on my vehicle has failed. When refueling the vehicle, a large about (4-6 cups) of fuel spew out of the filler cap just after the fuel pump clicks off. Additionally, I was informed by the dealer that in a roll over accident, the fuel would not be trapped in the tank, but would run out of the filler increasing the risk of a fire. According the NHTSA campaign 09V003000 18,951 2005 Dodge Durango’s are recalled for this problem. My vehicle is not under recall for this problem, yet it still exhibits the failure of the recalled vehicles. Chrysler has only offered to pay for 1/2 of the repair cost, yet on the recalled vehicles they will pay for the full amount.

On March 14, 2007 my car stalled and engine light came on and was taken to Shuman dealership in Walled Lake, MI and I was told the repairs were completed. They replaces and couple of sensors and the EGR valve. However, soon after leaving dealership, engine light came on. Dealership discovered the EGR valve they replaced was defective. I didn’t have time to wait for them to replace again. On March 17, 2007 car stalled again. On March 19, 2007 I took the car to Oakland Dodge in Madison heights, MI. They "fixed" the car and as I was leaving the engine light came back on. I immediately returned to Oakland Dodge and they told me that the EGR valve was defective and that they would have to order a new one. As I was leaving I asked if they would call me when the part came in and they told me that the part has not been released from Chrysler yet, so no new part is available to fix my car with. I called Chrysler Customer service and spoke with Michelle at 1:17 PM on March 19, 2007. She told me that they are aware of the problem, but the part that is making it defective the engineers are working on it and they do not know when the part will be available to fix my car. I also spoke with Cheri at Chrysler as well. Now two dealerhips and Chrsyler themselves have admitted that the car is currently unfixable. A defective EGR valve causes detonation in the engine, spark knock, engine ping and poor gas mileage, engine stall, sputtering etc. Although I have lodged complaints with Chrysler I am waiting to hear a response. The car is a leased vehicle, under warranty, and Chrysler cannot fix it, what should I do. I have a young child and cannot afford to stranded again.

DURANGO PROBLEMS

Letter forwarded for possible follow up regarding consumer case against chrysler motors. *tgw two recalls were issued and the consumers vehicle was not included in either. the consumers vehicle was built in july 2005, well after the problem was corrected in production. recall numbers 09v003000 and 05v034000. the consumer contacted dodge, but was told his vehicle identification number fell out of defect range. *jb

Passenger side airbag warning light goes on after driving aprox 5 miles. does not go off until vehicle is turned off. *kb

Dt: the contact stated the sun roof was making a noise. he took the vehicle to the dealership and they replaced the sun roof. after replacement rain leaked in through the sunroof assembly and flooded the vehicle. the sun roof was replaced again and the noise returned. additionally, the seat belt light came on while the seat belt was in use. the dealership disconnected the sensor, and ordered replacement parts for the entire seat belt assembly. the air bag light came on with no warning. the dealership ordered parts for repair of the air bag. *ak

Dt: the airbag light continued to come on. the vehicle has been to the dealer numerous times. there have been no crashes. this was a brand new vehicle. repairs were done on the ignition switch and instrument cluster. this was thought to be related to the reason why the air bag light continued to come on. the air bags had not deployed. the light for the passenger's side airbag and the driver's side continued to illuminate intermittently. the vehicle is currently at the dealer for this problem. *ak updated 12/27/05. *jb

Air bag light comes on. has been reported to dealer 3 times. *ak

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that the vehicle failed to start-up. additionally, the sun roof was leaking water into the electrical system and also water into the engine. the local dealer was not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 200,000.

Stalls when driving. no warning, steering and brakes do not work when this happens. no warning, no warning lights. after taking to multiple mechanics to try and find the issue, no matter the tune up or replacements, continues to stall. will stall mid driving, when stopped at red light and gas is pressed to proceed, stalls, stalls when sitting in line waiting. this is very scary and should be recalled by dodge. after reading that this happens often with this make and model. i purchased in 2017, to this day it keeps happening.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that the tpms warning display illuminated, even though the vehicle was not equipped with the feature. upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with nhtsa campaign number: 07v092000 (electrical system). the vehicle was taken to pinckney chrysler dodge jeep ram (1295 e main st, pinckney, mi 48169, (734) 878-3154) where it was diagnosed with needing the instrument cluster to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was informed of failure and advised the contact to have the vehicle taken to an authorized dealer to be repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 108,000.

Car accelerated on its on. could not stop vehicle- caused a collision. happened while trying to park car at work.

Having problems with the 4wd engaging on its own while vehicle sitting after shutoff as well as has shifted automatically from awd into 4wd while driving down the road at 55+mph...totally unsafe. have seen many complaints for this same issue going on from other dodge owners for '04 and '05 dodge caravans for same issue. appears to be related to faulty chinese manufactured part dodge was installing and faulting out connections causing power load to not be same power load as original spec (easily corroded wiring) and then screwing up the connection and faulting the unit out to start to shift on its own. major safety concern if occurring on many different personal over the past 5 yrs histories seen for same vehicle models. when vehicle is shutoff can also hear the 4wd selector clicking / engaging back and forth the 4wd system in / out from awd to 4wd. vehicle is currently stuck in 4wd lo now.

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.

Fuel system, gasoline: storage: tank assembly fuel leakage while filling gas with gas expelling out of fuel tank inlet valve every time i fill gas!!! i brought my vehicle in may 9, 2016 to replace the driver airbag recall and this dealer said that they inspected the fuel tank nhtsa #05v-034 and never mentioned that they did this upon my visit for the airbag. then i printed out the report on recalls for my vehicle on september 26, 2016 and fremont dodge dealership documented that it was completed and inspected on september 26, 2016, which i never visited the dealrship on that day. i printed out my carfax history with no actual prove that it has ever been fixed.. i bought this vehicle used in latter part of 2014 and been having serious problems with the fuel leakage when filling gas. please advise me of what to do next. thank you.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign numbers: 15v313000 (air bag) and 16v352000 (air bags); however, the parts for the recall repairs were unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repairs. the contact had not experienced a failure. the manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. vin tool confirms parts not available and parts distribution disconnect.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving 60 mph, the vehicle converted into four wheel drive lock and became unstable. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the vin was unknown. the failure mileage was 215,000.

Tire pressure light will not go off, after tires have been aired and checked by tire place.

Seat belt is locked but light comes on as if it was not on. i have to undo, and reapply for light to go off. radio will not work at times. radio repair guy said i needed a new amplifier. one day it just starts playing, but when i stopped to get gas, the car would not start. after battery was replaced, the cargo lamp stays on if i open my rear hatch. will only go off if i closed it twice.

Car stalls at stop light. no reason. car started shifting into all wheel drive by itself. i could hear it shifting as i opened driver door, and car was not on. did not know what the noise was. car sounded like it was grinding the gears when moved into drive. towed to shop. transmission guy could not figure out why it changed all by itself. cargo lamp is one if i open rear hatch. it will only go off if i close the hatch twice. now airbag light is on, since new battery was replaced.

This vehicle routinely stalls and shuts off while drive, decelaration, coasting, and also while at a complete stop. i have already had one accident due to this issue and has become increasingly dangerous to drive.

The vehicle starts fine and typically runs fine, but stalls out randomly. this started happening about 8 months ago, and happens about 3 times a week now. sometimes it stalls on the freeway at 60 mph and you lose power steering and brakes, but most of the time it happens when decelerating to turn a corner, which is really frustrating as you lose power steering and brakes and has caused me to go off the road or hit curbs if i can't muscle the vehicle through the remainder of the turn. luckily i haven't been in an accident due to this yet, but it is only a matter of time. the check engine light is not on, and there are no issues with the dash lights and gauges. the dodge dealer says they are not aware of any issues, but online forums show hundreds if not thousands of people having the same issue with this vehicle. *tr

The vehicle is swithing into 4wheel drive on its own and svc 4x4 flashes on dash. also when key off and/ or after unlocking doors wit key fab i can hear it swiching in and out of 4x4. i have read forums about this problem and there should absolutely be a recall on this issue. shame on dodge bigtime!!

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v352000 (air bags) however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. the contact had not experienced a failure. vin tool confirms parts not available.

Several incidents of uncommanded engagement of the four wheel drive from the all wheel drive mode. no indication at the dash or at the switch located on the dash. this has occurred while in motion at highway speeds and while the vehicle is stopped and turned off (the sound of the transfer case servo motor operating is quite obvious). this presents a very dangerous situation since engagement of the 4wd at highway speeds, particularly when the road surface is slippery, could easily results in lose of control.

Tl* the contact owned a 2005 dodge durango. while driving between 40 to 45 mph, the vehicle drove over black ice and crashed into a bridge. the air bags deployed. a police report was filed. the contact was injured and received medical attention. the vehicle was destroyed and towed. the approximate failure mileage was 200,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving at various low speeds, the vehicle independently switched into four wheel drive. the dealer was notified of the failure. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was 150,000.

Egr valve and evap

Upon filling the gas tank since the first time on june 15, 2017, and every time since then, the fuel always spits back, and all over the place, including on the gas attendant, upon any one walking by, on the car, and of course, on the ground. it may or may not be the fuel tank inlet check valve (fuel filler tube), but the dangerous safety issue remains. i have read that 20,000 durangos have been recalled from 2005 for this issue, but for reasons unknown, even though my 2005 durango also has this dangerous safety problem, i am told by the dealer that my 2005 durango has not been recalled. if for some reason it has not been recalled, it obviously should be recalled because it has the same exact issue that the other 2005 durangos have been recalled for. so why not mine?

"takata recall" i took the durango to orange coast dodge in costa mesa to fix the recall. they inserted a diagnostic device that showed that the air bag system was off line. no warning light was showing on the dash. when starting the vehicle the airbag light and the restraint system indicators on the dash light up for a few seconds then go off. the dealer ran a diagnostics and found that the airbag system was not initialized and that the warning light does not come on because the vehicle computer cannot connect to the system. he said its as if the system is not installed. the service associate said that he's seen this before and doesn't know for sure how it happens - maybe a voltage spike or battery issue. they performed the recall, initialized the system, tested and say everything works. cost me $155. how will i know for sure that my airbags are online if the indicators don't show me? i had a front end collision in the vehicle in 2015 and the airbags did not deploy - see attached photo. after the collision the transfer case motor was stuck in 4 wheel drive mode even though the switch is in awd position. at no time have i seen any indicator on the dash that shows the air bags or restraint system not working.

Transfer case make noise when park engages from underneath has trouble moving seems stuck in 4×4 can't not drive my truck due to this don't want to put my kids in danger always engaging into 4×4 and makes it hard for me to turn

My 05 dodge durango, which i am the only owner of, overflows gas while filling up the tank. i was told it is a recall, i called the local dealership to schedule an appointment to fix it, i was treated with absolute disrespect and was told my car was already fixed through the warranty, i assured them i was the only owner and it was never fixed, they again told me it was and they would not pay for it to get fixed again even if it is the same issue that the recall was for. i have had the gas overflow and spray all over me multiple times, including one time while i was holding my infant child. this is not ok and so beyond unsafe!!! it clearly wasn't fixed and i would like it fixed before someone gets hurt! the vehicle was off and parked. i also know multiple people with this same model and theirs do the same thing and all have rust eating through their vehicles on the panel under their gas tanks, was fixing that also in the recall since it is clearly due to the gas overflowing?

I vehicle likes to turn its 4 wheel drive on while i am making turns. also when it is parked you can hear the 4 wheel drive system making clicking noises. this happens when the vehicle is turned off and the key is not in the ignition. i have read thousands of complaints about this same problem. i see that some people have spent thousands of dollars to fix this problem and it does not. some people have stated while driving on a highway or road it has kicked in and caused traffic accidents, some serious and some minors. when will this problem be addresses? will it take someone dying to get an investigation started? i have had this problem for a couple of years and thank god, nothing has happen to me or my family when this issues happens.

After fueling, when tank is full, it will begin dumping (spitting) fuel from gas filler tube. vehile is turned off and stationary when this occurs. this occurs at every fill up.

For no reason the vehicle shuts off with no warning. no lights on the dash or anything, shuts off and no steering. not safe to drive. it has happened while driving and while sitting at a light, no warning signs. acts fine, both times during city street driving.

A recall that supposedly happened before i purchased the vehicle is showing the symptoms of why it was recalled to begin with. the recall #e01, nhtsa #05v-034 which involves the fuel filler tube inlet check valve. every single time i try to put gas in my durango, the fuel spurts out at me... even when i go super slow in filling it up. this has been going on for at least 2 years now. the area around and under the gas cap is now all corroded and rusted. i recently took some pictures during the fill to show all the gas on the ground and on the car. i took this to dodge city in brookfield, wi and they could not fix the problem without charging me for the work (almost $600). in researching this problem, i see many people with these durangos have this issue but chrysler will not fix it without charging the end user.

The transfer case shifts by its self.the vehicle shifts into lock all on it's own, then the svc 4wd light comes on. sometimes when the vehicle is turned off you can hear the transfer shift back and forth from awd to 4 lock now its stuck in 4lo this happens stationary and in motion.

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that the air bag warning indicator illuminated. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v352000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was not notified of the issue. the failure mileage was not provided. parts distribution disconnect.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while attempting to fuel the vehicle, the contact was unable to insert the entire fuel pump nozzle into the fuel filler neck. the fuel filler neck would only allow a certain amount of fuel to enter at a time. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel filler neck and fuel tank parts needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 129,494.

The transfer case puts itself into 4 wheel drive while driving. it also seems to be affected by the door locking mechanism as you can hear the transfer case moving. when it's in 4 wheel drive it makes turning very difficult and dangerous because it just won't turn. i am grounding this vehicle and will have it towed to dodge but after reading all the posts about these vehicles it appears dodge doesn't know how to fix it either.

The vehicle doesn't want to drive like the brake is on this happens even worse when trying to turn.the service 4 wheel drive light is on.i got on a forum and was blown away by all the people having the same problem.some say electrical some say transfer case.they was 2005 or all in this area.the vehicle only has 69000 miles on it.

Nitto terra grabbler. purchased 4 tires on 11/12/15. rear passenger tire failed / completely came apart and into two pieces while i was driving on a two lane road (pch) the safety brake cable was also damaged. i was towed home. the dealer and nitto have refused to replace the tire. instead of keeping the tire for inspection, the dealer threw the tire away. tire was gone the following day. i have pictures of the tire. i want all the tires replaced as there is a safety issue here with these tires that could result in great bodily injury or death. nitto tires have been recalled in the past due to failure.

Started with the ser 4 wheel drive light coming on intermitly ..then passenger side window intermitly stops working ..next the transfer case motor switches all by its self into 4 wheel lock and 4 wheel lo with no lights on the dash..when its in 4 wheel lock its very hard to drive and turning almost imposable this creates a very unsafe condition when your driving when its in lock you can barely get out of a parking spot or get turned around even more scary on the road when it shifts all by its self ..many times no lights on the dash to tell you it has changed ...other time while driving at highway speeds the 4 lock of 4 lo lights come on ..very dangerous ...sometime the key fob also makes the transfer case motor change when the truck is not even running

Vehicle switches into 4x4 with vehicle turned off chrysler says they don't know what's wrong but if you go to car gurus .com lots and lots of people have this problem and no one will help us cause is transfer case motor engages on its own causing our car to lock 4x4 and yes vehicle will skid around corners and is dangerus

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. on several occasions, the vehicle idled excessively. the contact stated that the check engine warning indicator illuminated intermittently. while stopped at several traffic lights and construction work zones, the accelerator pedal was depressed and the vehicle stalled. the vehicle was taken to napleton chrysler jeep dodge ram (located at 1460 e osceola pkwy, kissimmee, fl 34744, (855) 437-9197) to be diagnosed; however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. the vehicle was also taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. the contact was informed that the catalytic converter needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. the manufacturer was not contacted or made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

I have a 2005 dodge durango with the 5.7 hemi engine.. it has 80,000 miles and just recently the engine started shutting off at random times when driving, mostly when i hit a bump in the road.. 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 nhtsa 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.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving at any speed, the vehicle stalled and shut down without warning. the vehicle was able to be restarted. the failure recurred numerous times. the vehicle was driven to a mechanic. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 50,000.

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.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving 55 mph, the vehicle voluntarily went into four wheel drive. the failure occurred when the vehicle was driven for long periods of time. when the vehicle was in four wheel drive, it became harder to steer, turn, and drive. the contact stated that the vehicle was unsafe to drive. the dealer was notified of the failure and no repairs were made. the failure mileage was 160,000.

When in motion, vehicle's rpm will drop to 0 (randomly, no way to tell when coming), along with a loss of power steering and various electronics within the vehicle. problem is usually fixed by restarting vehicle, but it has been very dangerous - especially on the highway. has happened at least 5 times during my ownership of the vehicle (4 years)

When i unlock the doors with the remote or open unlocked doors, the shift motor activates, i can hear it engaging and disengaging. there is a delay upon starting my truck before the drive gear kick in and i can proceed to drive vehicle. when i make a sharp turn going forward or backing...the rear tires lock up. the awd lights flickers on/off. constant smell like something is burning.

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 15v313000 (air bags); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the contact had not experienced a failure. parts distribution disconnect.

The air bags no working correct

While traveling on i-90 eastbound at 70 mph my 05 dodge durango suddenly lost momentum and the engine rpm went up. i managed to get to the shoulder safely. the engine was still running and the vehicle still in gear but the vehicle failed to move. the vehicle was towed to a repair facility just off the next closest exit. examination showed the transmission fluid was okay, the repair facility found the torque converter had been stripped out. this vehicle had been displaying problems with the transfer case shifting without touching the selector switch. also you could hear the transfer case motor activating while unlocking the doors ??? research has shown that there are many such incidences of problems with this vehicle. repair costs me $1403. but the vehicle is still doing the same thing. there are reports of people changing out parts with no fix. i feel this vehicle is unsafe and the dealer should recall before someone gets killed. repair facility said my torque converter had been totally stripped out as a result of whatever caused the problem. i am disheartened as i like this vehicle but can't afford to spend thousands of dollars chasing a fix that many including dealers have been unable to resolve. whatever assistance would be greatly appreciated. see https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t4148_ds482593

4lo light blinks or stays on for short periods and the 4×4 locks for no apparent reason causing the vehicle to jerk and become hard to control in turning and nearly impossible to make a sharp turn until it disengages. this happens in city driving or stopping and starting or on back road driving. it can be fine when i park it and when i unlock get in and start out it may or may not lock into 4×4 but when it does it becomes extremely difficult to maneuver in tight parking spaces. i feels like the power train is going to fall completely appart.

Pulled into a parking lot and in park the car stalled, restarted it and it stalled again, did this 3 times in lot. car stalled making a left hand turn lost all powers but restarted again, nothing on instrument panel. car stalled on deceleration coming to red light lost brakes and steering rolled to stop to start it again, lucky did not hit anyone. have had this checked out numerous times but error is not being picked up by the electronics monitoring on the car. this not only happened today it has happened on numerous occasions dodge/chrysler needs to figure out how to correct this problem!!!

The front heat/ac controls stop working. it doesn't matter rather the heat is on or the ac is on. it will randomly stop blowing air. when this happens the wires under the passenger side dash (up under the glove box) get extremely hot and smells like burning plastic. when my mechanic looked into it the white plastic pigtail part was half melted away. he replaced it but a few months later we had to replace it again with the same issue. i didn't drive this vehicle for about 6 months after it was repaired. now after 2 days of driving it since it was sitting it has gone out again.

Takata recall. received notice of recall july 21, 2016. still "remedy not available" as of feb. 23, 2017. could have killed a passenger by now.

My durango stalled twice yesterday, 2/16/17, as i was idling while stopped. it gave no warning lights, no sputtering, just quietly shut itself off. my power steering went out. i had to put the vehicle into park to restart it. when i went inside a store, it would not restart for a half hour after returning to my vehicle. then i drove home fine. we replaced the get valve when i got home. the next morning, the durango shut itself off while i was moving, going uphill, not on a curve, in my subdivision. my power steering went out. i was able to coast toward the curb, put it into park, and restart it. i am scared to death to drive it after reading that others have had the same problem with this make and model.

Fuel tank overflows every time when fueling. i try to pump as slowly as possible but fuel still runs down side of truck when about 3/4 full every single fill-up. last happened previous saturday. this has been occurring last 15,000 miles. local dealer claims nothing is wrong.

My vehicle will kick into 4x4 lo with no warning or notice. happens on tight turns. seems this is a huge problem on 2004-2005 dodge druango.

My durango has been turning off and i just turned today and it turned off twice on me and a car almost hit me.. and then 1 time same day a few minutes later on a red light.. just started to make stalling movements nad then turned off... three times it turned off while i was on my way to get my son from schoo... all 3 times within less than 40 min.. i am told that dodge has not had a recall on it.. im scared to drive it !!!

I was about to enter a storage facility and was slowly easing my foot off the brake when when the engine revved loudly my suv lurched forward and accelerated out of my control tore through the storage gate that didn't finish opening totally destroying the facilitiy main gate. the suv kept accelerating as i was hitting the brake then finally stopped.

My durango shift into 4wd lo while driving and turning. the motor also engages when the the car is locked and unlocked. the motor also engages and disengages for unknown reasons when it is parked and the key is off. this has happened multiple times. i have had it in the shop on multiple occasions to fix this problem

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v352000 (air bags) however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the contact had not experienced a failure. vin tool confirms parts not available.

Several times, while driving my 2005 dodge durango, it has shut off. this has happened 4 times. 1st: i was stopped at a highway intersection and it shut off, 2nd it shut off while stopping in the median getting ready to turn into work, 3rd: i was slowing down trying to turn off the highway when it shut off and almost caused me to hit a stop sign since the power steering went out and the brakes didn't work. 4th: i was pulling out of a parking lot and it shut off. i had no power steering or brakes. i had children in the car 2 out of the 4 times this has happened. this is very unsafe and i feel like it's a fatality waiting to happen. there has been no indication this was going to happen before it happened. i have been on highways or very highly traveled road ways. each time, i have had to stop and restart this truck. once it threw a random misfire code, but has not had a code since. we have replaced spark plugs and the 02 senor, but it is still happening. 90+ people have complained on carcomplaints.com about this happening while driving and almost wrecking. that is how i found this site. this needs to be handled in the utmost urgency. this is the only transportation i have and it worries me each time i have to get behind the wheel or have my children ride in the truck. this puts everyone's lives at risk. i don't have money to buy another vehicle or to even trade this one in on something. i don't have money to spend guessing at what is wrong with this truck.. dodge needs to recall this and find out what is happening before someone gets killed. dodge paying to fix this is a lot better then paying someone's family that has been badly hurt or killed by someone trying to overlook this.

We took the truck in for the recall . my airbag light came on and the dealership refuse to reset it without charging me to reset it.

Engine cuts off at any speed, but especially at low idle, when nearing an intersection, or turning the vehicle at a lower, safer speed. this happens on highway, residential streets, stoplights, basically anywhere at anytime.

Vehicle engages and disengages into four wheel drive on its own. will engage while driving at high speeds on freeway, while vehicle is off and when unlocking doors with key fob. stereo changes stations and volume adjusts on its own. have unhooked transfer case to avoid an accident. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving at any speed, the vehicle lost power without warning. the vehicle was pulled over and restarted. the dealer was unable to diagnose the failure. the failure recurred several times. the manufacturer was made aware of the complaint, but did not assist. the failure was not remedied. the failure mileage was approximately 86,000.

4 wheel drive engages by itself. vehicle can be running at highway speed, idling, or completely off and the four wheel drive will shift from awd to locked to low.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while attempting to refuel the vehicle, there was evidence of a fuel leakage coming from the filler neck of the fuel tank. the contact stated that the failure recurred on every fuel fill up. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline). the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 238,990.

As i was driving home, all of the dash warning/service lights came on. at the same time, my turn signals, brake lights, windshield wipers, hazard lights, and all gauges malfunctioned. i believe this to be an issue with the "front control module".

When filling the gas tank a large amount of gasoline spits out after the fuel nozzle clicks off. i first thought is was a defect with the fuel nozzle. but it continues to happen each time i fill up. this is very dangerous and could cause serious injury or death in the event of a fire or explosion. there are several videos on ytube which clearly show this problem. when this occurs the vehicle is stopped at the service station with the engine and ignition is off. i have researched and found the chrysler has a recall on this problem but vin is not included. the recall should include all vehicles that have this problem. pleas advise on what can be done to get chrysler to rectify this dangerous problem at their expense. thank you. this problem first occurred in november 2016 and has continued each time i fill up. *tr

Shifts from awd to 4lock and 4low on it's own while parked or even when driving down the road. also, can hear the transfer case trying to shift even when the vehicle is off. *tr

Driving the durango the vehicle will shift into 4 wheel low at any speed,also when i turn the car off and take out the key you can hear the transfer case or transfer case motor engaging,also the service 4wd system light blinks on and off all the time.dodge dealer have no clue whats wrong.

I just returned from a trip from p.a to buffalo n.y. i parked it overnight woke up the next morning to a loud rattle sound coming from the engine. had it towed to my local dodge dealership and they told me that a engine rod broke and blew a hole in the engine block,the suv had around 140,00 on it ,i replaced the engine brand new at the cost of around 6,500.00..dodge durango slt 5.7 hemi.

When you fill the fuel tank full it gushes out all over the place. how hasn't this matter been taken care of. it's extremely dangerous and unsafe. dodge must enjoy seeing unsafe [xxx]. it happens all the time when you fill up. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

While driving on highway, vehicle just threw itself into 4lo 4wd and started grinding. i had to slam the brakes to save the truck and come to a quick stop from highway speeds. had to limp it home at 15 mph. before limping it home, it decided to throw itself into neutral and i couldn't get any motion. after being at a complete stop for a while, the vehicle went back into one of it's 3 modes (i don't know which), awd, 4hi or 4lo. i limped it home and parked it. dodge dealer says i need a new transfer case and online information from other users shows this as a "known issue" with no real resolution. i have read that other folks have replaced their transfer case and still have the same issue. this is ridiculous to have happened to me after all these years of people reporting this issue in the past. i could have been killed and i'm not happy. i have stayed on top of all repairs on this vehicle and have had no issues. this was a shock. where is the recall for this?

Two days ago i was driving down the highway about 75 mph when my service 4 wheel drive light came on and then it switched itself into 4 wheel drive by itself. and then i herd a load pop and it started smoking. i managed to get pulled over while it was yanking me to the left the hole time. i popped the hood to fined what smelled like burned tranny fluid all over my engine. i managed to move the vehicle to the exit in front of me and had it towed from the gas station back home. i had my mechanic from the car lot i bought it from come and take a look he said the transfer motor was ready a faulty voltage and triggered the 4 wheel drive and going 75 mph when it engaged blew my transfer case and maybe more. he have to get it back to the shop to find out more. i looked on several forums to find that for over the past 5 yrs a lot of dodge durango owners have had the same issue and have spent thousands to fix an issue that obviously was a defect from the factory. they replaced front control module, transfer case, transfer case motor and had it rewired. some did part and later had to do it all just to fix. if i had not had durby driving experience when this happened i could have been killed. i feel this is a major safety issue for the people that don't have knowledge of controlling a vehicle that you have shift on its own and put you all over the road. here is one site among others where it is a major issue http://www.dodgedakota.net/boards/dea/132-1.html,http://www.carcomplaints.com/dodge/durango/2005/drivetrain/power_train.shtml. *tr

On my vehicle the 4 wheel drive will automatically engage while i am driving. it has switched into 4lo a few times which almost caused a serious accident. there is also a clicking noise that sounds like the gears are switching back and forth, when i use the remote lock/unlock on the key fob. the dodge dealership did not know why it was happening and said maybe i should replace the transfer case but they did not know for sure if that would do anything. so i lost over $100 and got nothing out of it. i took it to my mechanic who said that unplugging at the transfer case would stop the issue but the 4 lo and other switches would not work and the service 4x4 light would remain on. since i have to drive i had him do this and it did fix the problem but now i don't have any 4 wheel drive which really sucks living in utah with all the snow. the fact that the vehicle would switch into 4 lo when i was doing 70 mph on the freeway is a major safety concern. there needs to be a recall on this problem. *tr

Reason for filing a vehicle safety complaint is as follows; every time i have tried to fill-up my gas tank on my 2005 dodge durango, the gas not only starts to shoot out of the tank itself, but also all over my truck, myself and all over the floor. this happens each time i fill my suv regardless of the gas station i go to.

Takata recall i almost got into a really bad accident yesterday with my family in the car ( my daughter was in the passenger seat). all i could think about was the airbag going off and killing my child due to metal fragments deploying from the airbag. we should not have to worry about these kind of things. we have enough to worry about in the road with crazy drivers as it is. it seems like the parts are never going to come in to fix our air bags. i want a car i can drive safely with my family until my airbag gets fixed. i think it is takatas duty to everyone to make them feel safe.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that his battery had died upon start of his vehicle. the contact had the vehicle towed to an independent mechanic who was able to recharge the battery. months later, the contact stated that the same failure recurred. the contact had the vehicle jump started and taken back to his independent mechanic who charged the battery again. due to the ineffectiveness of the charge, the mechanic replaced the battery. upon research, the contact discovered that the change over motor linked to the four-wheel drive feature could engage independently while the vehicle was turned off. the contact then linked his failure of his vehicle due to the fact that he could hear an abnormal noise coming from the vehicle once the vehicle was turned off. the contact also stated that the svc 4wd service light would illuminate intermittently upon start of the vehicle. gill chrysler dodge jeep ram (1100 s madera ave, madera, ca 93637) was notified of the failure and informed him that there were no recalls on the vehicle. the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. the vehicle had yet to be repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 138,000.

Past couple of weeks my 4lo light flashes, tries to go into 4wd on its own, makes clicking noise even when not running,4lock in slow turns or backing up. transfer case will engage by itself while driving, or engage when unlocking or locking the doors, or opening the doors. even after it has been turned off it will try and engage, with sitting there and no one having touched it. this morning, when i put it in reverse, it made a loud noise and it was hard to back out of my garage, 4 lo light flashes.

The gasoline will overflow from the fuel filler pipe and cap and not shut off on its own. this happens when filling the vehicle stationary, with the car off at gas stations. it happens very consistently, regardless of the fill rate of the gas, the style of gasoline dispenser, or location of the gas station. the gasoline will continue to spill out from the fuel neck until someone manually intervenes and turns off the nozzle. there have been 2 recalls issued for this issue with 2005 dodge durango's (recall id# 40367, and 27198) however the recall is limited to certain vins, which does not include mine. to be clear, even though my vin is not included in the recalls, i am experiencing the exact same issue as described in both recalls. the body on that side of the vehicle (directly under the filler cap) has been completely eaten away from the episodes of gasoline pouring out over it.

When filling gas tank, gas shoots back out filler tube. the gasoline will splash back at you when tank is not even full. very dangerous and checked for recall but my vehicle not covered but many owners report same issue.

Vehicle has started to automatically shift into 4 wheel drive when driving. will sometimes automatically shift into 4 lock and sometimes into 4 low. this causes the vehicle to rapidly decelerate and swerve due to the 4 wheel drive engaging. the vehicle will also automatically engage and disengage 4 wheel drive when off. there are countless descriptions of this on the internet for this particular vehicle. some of them resulting in near mishaps. my vehicle is at 122,000 miles and has been regularly maintained. *tr

So i was driving to work and going about 60 mph and the 4wheel drive engaged and almost caused a major accident on the freeway. i went on the dodge website and it seems that everyone that owns this type of vehicle had the same thing happen to them. so its not just a random thing that happened. this is a serious problem and it could end up costing someone's life. right after it happened it made a loud noise then went back to 2wheel drive. then the lights on the vehicle for the 4wheel hi and low was going haywire. then like nothing it turned off.and the car drove great. but as i went further down the highway it did it again about 3 more time so i parked it. i.waited a couple hours went to open the door and the car started making noises as if it was engaging ad disengaging the 4 wheel drive. i called the dodge dealer and they have no clue what to do. this is clearly a malfunctioning drive train and every other person who owned a 2005 dodge durango 4 wheel drive has the same exact problem. this is a great car but this malfunction needs to be addressed. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving at low speeds and making turns, the vehicle stalled and the check engine warning light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that there was a small vacuum leak due to the retention pump. the contact called turnersville jeep chrysler dodge ram located at 3100 nj-42, turnersville, nj 08081; phone number: (856) 316-7958 but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage 99,000.

While driving around 55 mph, smoke and a burning smell appeared out of the rear of the car. after stopping, then turning right, a loud noise was heard at the rear end. after arriving home, an inspection showed leaked fluid all around the underside rear end. after taking it to a mechanic, they determined that the differential pinion nut had come loose, which damaged the pinion seal, and required a differential overhaul.

Gas gushes out of the fill tube when the tank becomes full. it doesn't seem to matter how fast or slow the tank is filled. when full, the automatic nozzle does shut off but only after gas has spurted out and runs down the fender. i need to emphasize that this is an ongoing problem that happens over and over again. the most recent date is listed below.

When filling up fuel tank, a wave of fuel is spilled out every time.

My 2005 dodge durango 5.7 4wd hemi, has been kicking itself into 4 wd, 4 lo and even neutral while driving down the highway. the car will be off and you can hear mechanical mechanisms at work. the vehicle going into neutral has happened only while driving on the highway and the the other shifts happen all the time no matter what the vehicle is doing parked driving or no key.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving over 55 mph, the transmission suddenly shifted into four low, which caused the speed to abruptly decelerate to approximately 35 mph. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the local dealer and manufacturer were not notified. the vin was not available. the failure mileage was 150,000.

My 05 dodge durango will engage in 4 wheel drive while driving on the highway, and engage while truck is in park and engine off.

Fuel tank inlet check valve fails causing gas to leak out at conclusion of a fueling when stationary. this has damaged the rear quarter panel over the years. this is the same condition as covered in chrysler recall no. h45, however, they only recalled 18,951 manufactured from oct-nov 2004. this durango (march 2005), as well as many others who have complained, is outside of those dates and yet have the same defect. h45 should be expanded to include all 2005 durango models.

Engine stalling while low speed driving, when deceleration, while making a stop sign or waiting at a red light. this issue has occurred persistently in different occasions and settings. although the majority of the times the vehicle's shutting off occurs frequently at low speed, it has happened while driving at a higher normal speed. chrysler company does not have this issue listed on some vehicles of the same year 2005 that evidently shows certain defects, therefore, owners are immediately dismiss or ignored and left with a life threatening vehicle on their hands.

Stationary: when refueling, great amount of fuel leaks out with high pressure, soaked me in gasoline causing burns and skin irritation on half of my body, also damaged the fuel panel side of the vehicle. chrysler refuses to recognize an existent recall on vehicles from the same year that evidently have same defects. my vehicle not listed on the recall but defect was found by 2 different dodge mechanics so was supposedly repaired. unfortunately, in my first drive it almost killed me in a zone where vehicles go at 70 mph. in the highway something suddenly snapped loudly, fuel splatter leaking out with pressure, smoke coming out, vehicle started to shake aggressively out of control, then vehicle shuts off while running, twice. the vehicle remain with an asphyxiating fuel odor, fire department and police were at scene, chrysler kept me hours in the phone constantly washing their hands from 2pm until 8pm, call after call and neither chrysler or the dodge dealership provided any solution nor help, we almost died today, this defect almost killed us.

When i get gas it doesn't matter if i have a little gas or half a tank my gas as i'm pumping always comes out and backfires at me ....it just starts spitting out at me for no reason... even when i'm empty and i start pumping gas it happens after about 10 seconds of pumping gas it just decides to come back at me.. so i'm wasting gas all the time it happens about every fourth time i get gas....

The transfer case is changing from all wheel drive into four wheel drive high and low by itself at random. it first happened to my 16 year old daughter. she was driving 65 mph when the transfer case switched on its on. this could have been a horrible accident. dodge says they know nothing about this issue. this needs to be a recall. this is a serious issue. your vehecile's transfer case moving all by itself. when the vehecile is parked you can hear the transfer case motor actuating with nothing on. car parked. this issue is all over the internet with no answers and dodge knows nothing or is pretending to. this is big. dangerous issue. please issue a recall [xxx].

“takata recall” there are several things that are going on with my 2005 dodge durango slt 4.7 liter v8, 4 wheel drive suv that are alarming. every single time i fuel the vehicle it shoots gasoline right back on out of the gas tank where you insert the fuel nozzle and covers me with gas! plus i have replaced the throttle position sensor several times, along with the idle air control valve, and map sensor just to try and correct the stalling while either slowing down to come to a stop, or it also occurs quite frequently when the vehicle is at normal operational temperature and just idling. the rpm gauge inside the vehicle starts fluctuating irratically before stalling. you lose all power and control over the vehicle when it stalls! another problem that’s present is hard shifting, or the vehicle fails to shift until it almost pegs out the rpm gauge. it’s like both idle and shift are affected creating a safety issue. the transmission has been serviced regularly, tuneups, etc. however despite staying on top of all vehicle maintenance requirements the vehicle still runs poorly and has been doing this since i have owned it at 78,000 miles. it’s now got 113k on it and i honestly think the vehicle is a safety hazard and needs the manufacturing company to address all of these issues! this is an ongoing issue that no matter how many times i have the vehicle repaired and the parts replaced it continues to stall out and shift incorrectly there’s 18 trouble codes that keep coming up including the air bag on the passenger side, which really doesn’t seem to fit what’s really going on. no trouble codes for the fuel tank shooting gas out of the inlet pipe that leads to gas tank. this stalling and loss of power happens at all speeds on the freeway, city driving, or literally parked or slowing down from any speed. any kind of weather condition. problem started 8/01/2014 to present day.

4 lo light flashing. service 4wd light flashing. shifted to 4 lo on its own. stuck in 4 lo. have to unplug transfer case to drive vehicle. back wheels locked up. this happens in a parking lot after turning car off and using key to fob to lock doors. lights flash going down highway and on city streets at all speeds. car will make shifting noises when turned off in park and key removed.

The awd engages and disengages all on its own. it can engage in the middle of turning which locks up the front wheels, it also engages when you lock / unlock the car. i find it this is a safety issue. it also said service 4wd all the time. this should be a recall as there are many pages online of people having the same exact problem.

Fuel spits back at end of refueling. dealer mentioned a recall on the inlet check valve but that my vin was not included in that recall. it should be. it is the exact same problem. it is a major safety issue when a gush of fuel splatters all over the attendant, my car and the ground every time i fill up.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango equipped with primewell valera ht tires, size: p265/65/r17 (na). while driving approximately 70 mph, the front passenger tire began to shred, which caused the vehicle to lean suddenly. the vehicle was towed to the contact's home. the contact notified firestone complete auto care (301 oak spring rd, washington, pa 15301, (724) 250-8251) of the failure, but the tire was not diagnosed or replaced. the dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. the vehicle failure mieage was 133,000 and the tire failure mileage was 500.

When filling the tank up with fuel, rather than stopping automatically, the nozzle clicks and fuel burps out onto the vehicle and the ground. this happens when stationary at a gas station filling up with fuel. i believe this may be the common issue with the fuel tank filler inlet check valve or fuel tank filler. each are common recalls found on the nhtsa website under this specific vehicle.

When fueling with fuel at the end if not stooped regulatory to allow the fuel to empty into the tank the fuel will come out of the filling hole and keep going until you stop the fuel pump. once you stop the fuel p[ump it will take about 3 sec to stop coming out but until then you will have about 1 quart to half a gallon of fuel all over the side of the durango, tire, and ground

While driving, svc awd light comes on, then goes out. no problem there but that is only the beginning. in a slow hard turn on reverse, the wheels seem to bind up with an uncontrolled lock into four wheel drive. with my research into this problem, i discovered many other people with the exact same problem. 72 pages of the same complaint !! some even tell the of car shifting into 4 wheel drive on the highway slowing the car into dangerously slow speed . i traced complaints back to 2004 , all deal with the transfer case shift motor or the wiring controlling it. also related to the a/c connection, or the awd, 4 high and 4 low lock switch. i experienced the shift into four wheel drive in slow speed turning and backing but to have it shift into 4 lo lock during driving has me afraid to drive it at all. over 350 complaints of the same problem, with only one web site sounds like a major design problem that dodge has not addressed at all. fyi i bought this car used at koch 33 dealer and they did not disclose the problem in advanced. thanks rich

Every time i put gas in the tank it spills out at the end of refueling all over the car and ground.

The vehicle began making a clicking sound after turning the key off and removing the key. it sounded like it was trying to lock into 4-wheel drive mode. i stuck my key back in and turned it to just before starting engine to see if any dash lights come in and the svc light flashed once. when i've turned the ignition on but let it in park i hear the same clicking sound. i've turned the knob that changes mode from 4lo, 4x4, and awd but this changed nothing. i was told the sound comes from the transfer case motor but none of the local dealerships can find anything wrong. please investigate several of the on-line forums are full of these same type of issues with the same make, model, and year as mine; and even with the same dealership act of ignorance issues i experienced.

2005 dodge durango limited 5.7. my durango locks its self into 4x4 on it's own. i cant disengage it. this happens either sitting still or driving down the road. i have carried it to the local dealership and they charged me $2210+tax to fix the issue. they said it was the front control module and the wiring harness. i got my truck back and it was still locking in 4x4. i carried it back and they said the wiring harness is discontinued so they repaired the wire to the transfercase and they said when they fix a wire it causes another to go out so they fixed it once again and said i can no longer use the warranty on it because it will only continue to happen and they will have to start charging me every time but when i got it back i went to the gas station and it locked in 4x4 when i was turning into traffic which caused me to turn wide causing me to pull into on coming traffic almost having a head on collision. i need this problem resolved. this happens on city streets and highway, it can occur sitting still or moving.

I had taken my dodge durango for a recall on air bag and they replaced.. also mention that when i am filling up my dodge durango with fuel it wouldn’t automatically stop when tank was full caucusing fuel to splash all over including me they indicated to me that it was a recall on my durango they ordered the parts and two days later called me and said we are not going to fix it. dealer was davis moore dodge in witchita, kansas

My durango was serviced on 2/23/2018 with regular upkeep stuff like new battery, oil change, ect. about a week later, my rpms would jump and drop while on the highway. on 3/10/2018, i started my car and drove a few blocks and it did just fine, later that evening, i drove about 4 blocks and my engine died. no check engine light, i was able to start right back up and make it about a block before it died again, able to restart it and make it home before my engine died again. i took it to the shop and they told me that no codes could be pulled and that my car was shorting out due to my radiator and water pump. we replaced those and my thermostat and they said it should be fine. drove the car about 15 miles or less and it died again. so i took it to the next shop and they could not tell me anything because it never died or acted up in their care. so they told me to drive it until it does it again. the damn thing died two blocks away from the shop. the guys at the shop told me to go fill up my gas tank and put fuel injector cleaner in it. i didn't have any problems making it home or to work the next day. i was headed to lunch the next day and it dies before i even leave the work parking lot. i drive home and it dies twice, all able to start right back up. i live maybe 5 minutes away from my job and my gas tank went from full to half a tank just by going to work and home. today, i left work and made it a couple of blocks from home when it died and would not start back up!! i had to tow my car home. the dodge house says its 150.00 dollars to just pull the car into their bays and when it doesn't show codes or the engine light is not on, they can not do any thing further and send me on my way. they obviously have a problem with this death trap and they need to fix it.

The transfer case make clicking counts when driving and while car is idle. it also makes these clicking noises while the car is off putting the car into 4 lo on its own. the car will sometimes shut off while driving low speeds and attempting to make a turn. the battery dies frequently after a week of not is use.

About 2 weeks ago, my 4lo light would blink and then go off, and then my svc 4wd light would go on for about 4min. i took it into my mechanic, he could not find anything. today, as i was backing out of my driveway - with my 3 kids, all my wheels locked up and i could not drive it. mind you, i am in the middle of the street now. when i got out of my car i could hear my car trying to shift from 4lo/4hi/awd. i had to call my husband to come home to get my car off the street. in looking up this matter online, there seems to be alot of issues with this and seems to be a huge safety issue when you're talking about your car shifting from awd to 4lo or 4hi - thankfully, i was not on the highway going 55. we were able to get it to the mechanic and you can hear it trying to shift when the vehicle is off - no key or anything - wow! mechanic said i was very lucky. i would highly suggest someone looking into this issue, it seems to be a pretty widely known issue.

My car caught on fire from the hood area (i have photos) and air bags never deployed . i took my car in and the air bags were replaced but never deployed and car is a total lost due to fire.

Transfer case is engaging 4hi and 4 lock while driving automatically. blinks lights on dash and goes away. can hear the transfer case actuating when vehicle is parked after engine runs. then goes away.

When attempting to re-fuel, immediate backflow/discharge of fuel causing hazard. this occurs even when fuel tank is below 1/4 tank level. re-fueling must be done at a very slow rate to reduce number of backlow discharges that occur during a single re-fueling session.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while operating the vehicle, the passenger side air bag indicator remained illuminated, which was a safety concern. the failure was not diagnosed or repaired. the local dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 109,000.

Large amount of fuel spits out of fuel inlet tube at the end of refueling. existing recall that address this issue does not cover enough vins.

Owner of 2005 dodge durango with faulty check valve in fuel filler tube. vehicle vin currently not included in chrysler recall h45, (nhtsa 05v034000). upon fuel fill up, vehicle overflows substantial amount of fuel from filler neck onto side of vehicle and ground on every fuel hose cut off.

Takata recall. i took my vehicle in to have this recall fixed and was told it was repaired. then i received another notice and was informed by the dealership they would contact me when they had the parts. i was never contacted and moved but still have the same number. now i receive all this information about the danger and this vehicle is my wife and children's primary source of transportation. i fear for their lives while driving this vehicle, especially after watching the video. also during the same time frame of this recall, my electronics on the vehicle began acting erratically. they still do occasionally but we have to drive it nonetheless. the instrument cluster will go dead with no lights or gauges working, the a.c. will blow heat only or stop, the alarm goes off on its on, etc. all this while it is still running and drivable but you don't know how fast! right now it's acting somewhat normal. i really feel i was wronged in buying this vehicle! the date i listed was the first time it happened but it has happened several times after that up to last month.

After coming to a complete stop at a stop sign and allowing children to cross in the crosswalk, my vehicle try’s to accelerate/jump forward even though my foot has the brake pedal completely pushed down. the schools in my town get packed with traffic and you have to kinda of stop and go at a slow pace for long periods of time. my 2005 dodge durango try’s to nudge forward on its own when slowly stopping and going in traffic. very dangerous for this to be happening around elementary schools with children around. i hope this known safety issue is able to be resolved. this is a daily occurrence, whether i’m picking up or dropping off kids at school, or i’m creeping along very slowly stopping and going looking for a parking spot, or at a red light or slowing down before entering a driveway, or anytime i’m in a driverhru and i have to creep along and stop and go. would love for this to be resolved. i will even pay for it, i just would like it to be fixed because it’s dangerous.

"takata recall" i'm handicap, trying to get airbags replaced, keep getting run around, dealers no help, finally one dealer says parts are on order , but still no results, have been over 1 year, i'm still recieving recall letters in mail, frustrated, need vehicle fixed,

When filling the gas tank fuel spits out everywhere resulting in a fire hazard and personal safety issues for the person fueling the vehicle. this had been an issue since i purchased the vehicle in february. i contacted the family of the previous owner who stated this has always been a problem.

It is a awd car but sometime the 4lo light comes on with a very annoying noise from the bottom of the car or engine, then the speed being slowed down significantly, the car becomes hard to keep going. the streaking sound and the speed being reduced like the break being stepped on abrubtly makes me pull over for safety.

I was driving my vehicle while conducting a u-turn on boulder highway and the car shut off right in the middle of the street. oncoming traffic was luckily able to see that my car was stopped and avoided hitting my vehicle which was stopped between two lanes. after a few min i was able to get the car to restart.

My service 4 wheel drive light came on and my suv and my car started jerking unexpectedly while in traffic, as if it were changing or shifting gears, which could have caused an accident. when i took it to dodge, i was told that the front control module for c1404, needed to be replaced, and that the part alone would cost $1200.00. i am reading many articles about issues with the 4wd in this make, model, of vehicle and want to know if there is a recall on this and if not there should be, before someone is killed because of this issue (if not already)

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that the check engine indicator illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that there was an emissions leak and the fuel tank needed to be replaced. the vehicle was taken to mt. ephraim chrysler dodge ram (620 n black horse pike, mt ephraim, nj 08059 (856) 931-2000) where it was diagnosed that there was a very small evaporative emission system leak. the dealer stated that the vehicle needed a new o-ring, lock ring, and the fuel tank needed to be replaced. the contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline) and stated that the vehicle was previously repaired twice; however, the failure recurred. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 112,680.

I was driving straight down beltline line road and my foot slipped off the break and onto the gas. i t boned another car in which my air bag did not deploy. i totaled my car and the other car. i went to the hospital with a severe concussion and back pain.

While driving the 4 wheel drive kicks in and out without moving switch to 4 wheel drive

When turning and driving at slow speeds, wheels lock up like brakes are on, not letting car move. has on occasion when driving at speeds of 40 to 55, transmission does not go into overdrive. of all the complaints i've read, i wish dodge would admit they have a problem. i don't want this to lock up at highway speeds. thank you

I stopped at the gas station to put gas in my 2005 durango. when it was full the gas sprayed out all over my leg and boots. when i looked for a recall there was one but not for my vin. because of this my finder is rusting out and ever durango i see the same make as mine has the same rust spot. i don't understand why it isn't part of the recall. the gas overflow and the rust spot.

Was driving at a low rate of speed making a left turn into a parking spot and heard a huge clunk as if i hit a pot hole then the car became very sluggish as if something was slowing it down. i thought maybe i blew a tire so i got out and looked but the tires were fine. i then backed into the parking spot then drove forward a little and it seemed fine. i put it in park and turned off the ignition, then heard like an air compressor noise letting out air. it stopped after a few seconds. when i came out of the store it drove fine but the svc 4wd light came on, then back off. when i am travelling at lower rates of speed the light intermittently comes on and off and i haven't heard the clunk again but just now as i was making a left again at a slow speed the car came almost completely to a stop.

This vehicle was involved in a non injury accident with property damage. the initial cause of the crash was determined to be poor road conditions. the driver was driving on a gravel road after a rain and heavy traffic. driver entered a soupy spot in the road and the vehicle started to turn sideways. driver applied the brakes and vehicle would not slow down from the initial vehicle speed of around 25 mph. vehicle then left the roadway, down a steep ditch and through a fence causing severe damage to the vehicle and the fence. driver was able to keep the vehicle upright. when the vehicle was removed from the area, it was still driveable, but there was very little vehicle braking. upon inspection of the vehicle damage for the accident report, inspector found brake fluid leaking under the vehicle below the master cylinder area of the vehicle. upon opening the hood, inspector noted brake fluid sprayed all over the engine compartment. found the rear primary brake line and the front primary brake line were routed in such a manner that the two stainless steel jacketed lines were rubbing on each other and the rear line had ruptured, thus losing braking ability. this is the line that goes from the master cylinder to the hydraulic control unit of the anti-lock braking system. owner of the vehicle has owned it since 2006 and no brake work or modifications to the braking system have been performed while current owner has possessed vehicle. this appears to be an installation error from initial production of the vehicle.

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign numbers: 15v313000 and 16v352000 (air bags). the parts to do the repair were unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. on several occasions, the contact called smolich motors (1865 u.s. 20, bend, or 97701 (541) 389-1177) and was informed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. the manufacturer stated that the parts were available and the vehicle could be repaired. the contact had not experienced a failure. parts distribution disconnect.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving various speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning. the contact coasted the vehicle to the side of the road, waited a few minutes, and resumed driving. the failure recurred numerous times. the contact called quirk chrysler jeep ram of bangor (307 hogan rd, bangor, me 04401, phone number: (207) 945-9458) and was informed to contact dodge customer care. the vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the contact called the manufacturer and was informed that the vehicle was out of warranty, and did not offer further assistance. the approximate failure mileage was 141,141.

Every time i fill my tank, fuel burps back out and spills all over the side of the suv and on the ground. i called dodge, and they said the recall for this was already performed, and that repairing it will cost me around $900! if a recall, has been fixed, and still the problem persists, then the recall should be re-performed!

I bought this durango used. i looked up recalls before i bought it to make sure nothing really bad was an issue. 2 days after i bought it it started shifting into 4 high and 4 low by itself, while i was driving. fortunately it did not shift into 4 low while i was at high speeds, but it did it once while i was pulling out of a parking lot at about 10 mph and could have caused an accident very easily since i came to a complete stop, had to put it in neutral, play with the shift knob to get it back into awd. after that i went home. when it is parked and off, you can hear the tranfer case actuator shifting into 4 wheel drive in and out on its own. i did some research and unplugged the actuator until i can get this resolved so that i can safely drive this vehicle. this needs to be a recall, i have read hundreds of reports just like mine. it is a very common problem with this vehicle, and it is very dangerous unless the actuator is unplugged so that it cannot shift. the dealerships don't know how to fix it. some of the reports i read, the owner has spent thousands, and still the problem persists! that is why i have not attempted to fix the problem on my own by replacing any parts.

My dodge durango is filled with gas it will overflow. the gas pump kicks off and then gas comes spraying back out and spills gas down the side of the car. it will continue pushing gas out for about 30 seconds to a minute. i'm afraid to fill the tank to capacity due to the fire danger or explosion.

My dodge durango limited started shifting from and to 4wd and the service 4wd light came on. the vehicle began shifting randomly wile driving down the hwy. it will shift into 4wl wile driving 60 miles per hour down the road. this is going to get someone killed!

4 wheel drive engages by its self. srv4wd light comes on, and it clicks when car isn't running. and when it is running, going slow in the city or going 75 down the highway. there is a ton of complaints on this situation with the 2005 dodge durango.

Takata recall...........dodge still hasn't replaced the affected air bag

The car stalls alot whenever you're at a light or going slow speeds. will turn off and needs to be turned on. the ignition locks and the key wont turn when trying to turn the car on. the airbag light is constantly blinking when the driver seat belt is not on. when the seatbelt is on, the airbag light is permanently on. this morning the front passenger tire area make a loud clunk when i turned left. shortly after as i was going about 35 mph it felt as if i had a flat tire so i pulled over. turns out the entire ball joint had broken and the front passenger tire had fallen to the side.

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 nhtsa 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.

While driving, turning, parked, vehicle on or off, the 4wd selector will switch between awd, 4lock and 4lo. the svc4wd light sometimes blinks after start up, sometimes while driving. this happens in park, neutral or drive and the transfer case motor can be heard switching under the vehicle. see issue described exactly here: http://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t4148_ds482593 this is not a one-off issue, this is affecting multiple dodge, jeep, chrysler 4x4 vehicles over multiple years with both the 2wd-4wd and awd options. can be hazardous when traveling at highway speeds and causes loss of control during turning while on hard surfaces due to locked axles. even the manual warns against running in 4 lock/4lo on pavement or blacktop, this can cause damage to the powertrain.

Fuel keeps spitting back up the spout..

Both the crankshaft position sensor and the 2 4 transmission solenoid constantly go bad. the result is loss of power and/or engine shuts off. in a scenario where the vehicle is traveling on a highway/roadway at high speed, this may cause a collision. i have replaced the crankshaft position sensor 4 times in 6 months and the 2 4 transmission solenoid twice.

I was on my way home from work when i heard a loud clicking noise . i also noticed there are a lot of problems with this truck . i recently bought it and i looked online almost everything i saw was bad . these trucks need to be rebuilt or repair right .

I recently purchased my 2005 dodge durango and when i fill vehicle full of fuel it always spills out it never shuts off. fuel spills all over. i can not tell when it is about full and it should always detect when it is full and kick off but it just keeps going out on ground and all over until i can stop it. i noticed at one time there was a recall for this same issue on the 2005 dodge durango xlt and was afraid this vehicle did not get the recall fixed.

In my 05 durango, the 4wd keeps clicking on and off randomly. i could be driving down the highway or just turned the car off. the engine has not been able to go in drive, reverse, etc. i had a mechanic look at the transmission, spending a ton of unnecessary money when the whole time the 4wd has been stuck in neutral. dodge knows about the problem, why isn't there a recall? apparently the switching into 4lo at high speeds can cause serious damages -- even death to me or my children or other innocent people on the highway. what am i supposed to do????

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that the fuel tank filler tube inlet check valve was not closed as intended. as a result, fuel spilled out while refueling the vehicle. the failure occurred constantly. the vehicle was serviced under nhtsa campaign number: 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline), but the remedy failed to repair the vehicle. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was unknown.

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?

Vehicle started showing an intermittent "svc 4wd" light and vehicle would shift itself into low 4wd while making low speed turns. had it checked by dealer, who said codes showed "unequal tire pressure". tires were within 1 psi of each other. drove vehicle again, and codes said "unequal tire speed". dealer advised we replace all four tires, which we did. during our next trip (yesterday), the "svc 4wd" light came on and off several times, then vehicle suddenly lost all forward momentum while driving at highway speeds. vehicle's transfer case had shifted itself neutral, leaving vehicle stranded in highway with no shoulder. while starting the car to try to troubleshoot the problem, it suddenly and without warning shifted itself into low 4wd and lurched forward. i have researched the issue online in various dodge forums, and have found dozens of similar cases where there have been vehicles stranded in the highway due to the same problem. several dodge dealers evidently have had problems diagnosing the problem, replacing all possible parts only to have the issue recur within days. there are others who say they have filed complaints here and urge us who experience the same problem demand a recall. please investigate and force dodge to fix this obvious safety flaw that could easily cause a loss of life accident.

The vehicle tries to shift into 4 wheel drive on its own while traveling down the road. depending on speed it is sometimes successful causing difficult steering on dry pavement. it also sometimes sounds like it is trying to shift into 4 wheel drive when the vehicle is parked and not running; especially right after unlocking the doors with the key fob.

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.

Upon filling up the tank the fuel will spray out all over the place. i took it to the dealer and they stated there was a recall for this issue but it had already been done and even though it failed again it is my problem. i see 2006 and on have a unlimited time and mileage warranty for this issue. number: 14-001-12 group: fuel system date: january 20, 2012 subject: fuel spit back during refueling due to faulty inlet check valve x39 (unlimited time and mileage warranty extension) overview: this bulletin involves replacing the fuel filler tube if the condition occurs. models: 2006 - 2008 (hb) durango 2007 - 2008 (hg) aspen note: this extended warranty bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a naturally aspirated gasoline engines. symptom/condition: some customers may experience a fuel spit back condition during a refueling event. diagnosis: if the customer experiences the symptom/condition, proceed to the repair procedure. parts required: qty. part no. description ar (1) cnnzx390aa tube, fuel filler (4) 6500911 rivet, splash shield attaching

I am making a complaint that chrysler did not issue a recall based on nhtsa 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 nhtsa 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.

While driving my 2005 dodge durango limited at low speeds in my neighborhood, the 4wd automaticly engaged with the selector switch still in the awd position and no indicator lights on the dash stating that the 4wd was engaged at all. it make it very difficult to turn the corners even at low speeds sometimes even binds up enough to even stop the vehicle if i turn too sharp. very unsafe and is starting to happen more and more frequently. when i park it in the garage and with the key out and no power, i have started to notice you can hear the 4wd trying to engage and disengage multiple times while just sitting there.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving various speeds, the vehicle goes into wheel high mode svc 4wd. the rear end was in low gear, but the front gear was high. the vehicle shifted into either gear randomly and caused the vehicle to hop. while driving at approximately 60 mph, the engine stalled. the vehicle was able to be restarted. the failure occurred intermittently. the manufacturer was notified. the vin was not available. the approximate failure mileage was 195,000.

The car sv 4d light comes on. and when driving the car shifts into 4wd which causes the car to stall and almost caused me my life and family life on the highway.

I am experiencing the same exact issues with my 2005 dodge durango as other posts. the 4lo and svc 4wd warning lights on the instrument panel periodically flash on and off, and frequently when i slow down to pull into a parking spot or driveway i hear a clunking sound and the transmission actually shifts on its own into 4 wheel drive. the wheels will lock and when i accelerate it actually jerks the car and drags the tires. recently i heard a loud thump as if something broke and it shifted into 4wd on its own. in addition, when i shut the car off it will occasionally start clicking as if its locking and unlocking the car doors. this will continue for 10-15 seconds before stopping. i have had the vehicle into the local dodge dealer numerous times for service but they claim to have not heard of the problem before and seem baffled as to what’s causing it. clearly this is not an isolated incident because of the hundreds of reports i’ve seen from people experiencing the same issues. after waiting 6 weeks for an aftermarket instrument panel the dealer replaced it, but that made absolutely no difference and i am still experiencing the same exact issues as before.

Vehicle keep trying to shift into 4 wheel drive mode by itself while parked,driving and when vehicle is turned off

The durango is flashing on the dash either 4lock or 4lo while driving down the road. it will switch from awd to 4lock when turning. it randomly switches from awd to either 4lock or 4lo while idling and when no one is in the car and you use the key fob. it has not switch into 4lock or 4lo at a high rate of speed but has at slow speed. very concerned that i will happen, as have read other owners have had it happen going 55 mph.

Vehicle spits gas from fuel tank inlet & smells of fuel outside of the vehicle.

Transfer case motor engages by itself while driving and while parked. 4-lock light flickers on and off can hear the motor trying to engage. while driving it will engage and lock up the power train. have to have a person push the neutral reset button while rocking vehicle to free. have had vehicle stop in middle of intersection on a city street in front of on-coming traffic. motor has tried to engage while driving at 35 mph. told by mechanic that the transfer case could explode if the motor tries to engage while vehicle is moving at high speed. first happened approximately four years ago and had to wait over a year for the part. had to disable 4wd until part arrived. same thing is happening again.

Takata inflators-i have repeatedly contacted the local dealership about the recall & i have been told each time the parts to correct the problem are on backorder & they have no time estimate for the parts to be available. my 1st call to the dealer was 6/22/2015 & i was told it would be 3-4 weeks for the parts to arrive. i called again on 7/24 & was told the parts were still on backorder & there was no time estimate for parts availability. i called again today & still the same message. 6 months seems a bit long to wait for a recall item.

The durango switches into 4 wheel drive on its own. sometimes you can get out of the car use your key fob to lock the car and you can hear it engage in to 4 wheel drive. it also does this while you are driving down the street. it is really bad when it switches into 4 lo. i have read so much about so many people having these issues, yet nothing is being done. it is a real safety issue that needs to be resolved! this has been happening on and off for 3-5 months now and it is just getting worse.

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.

About six months ago 4lo light started flashing then when i shut the car off i can hear shifting into and out of 4wd. had it checked for codes and they found none. now as i was driving it locked into 4lo vehicle made a popping sound and stalled.right in the middle of a busy intersection. i was able to start it back up but now i can't drive this car due to fear of it doing this again.

While driving, 4lock starts flashing and the 4wheel drive goes in and out of gear. this has happened on many occasions and i feel it is unsafe.

2005 durango awd 5.7; the transfer case motor is switching on its own regardless of the vehicle being on or off. it occasionally actuates when unlocking the vehicle with the remote. most of the time it actuates while driving down the road. sometimes the dash light will blink 4lo other times 4lock. usually after a bit of blinking the svc 4wd light will come on. once it is in 4wd, it is hard to steer. a couple of instances, it has shifted out of gear, once i was at an intersection. i had to get help just to get it off the road. i have read countless blogs about this issue online, the majority of them are for the 2004 and 2005 models. if this isn’t grounds for a recall i don’t know what is.

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.

Humble isd we have been attempting to have a dodge durango serviced at texan dodge here in humble, tx for the past several months. we received a recall letter to have this work done, & the dealer here has failed miserably to service the recall. i have spoken with amanda on 7/30 & a richard on multiple occasions. they were to get back with me to schedule this required service. texan dodge address: 18555 eastex fwy, humble, tx 77338 phone:(281) 359-7100

My car repeatedly cuts off while i am driving. i noticed that other people have the same issue with the same model as i have which a 2005 dodge durango. i did my research and it was identified by dodge as a low maneuver issue. one incident that happens a few days ago was that my vehicle shut off on a curve while merging on the highway. i am very luck that it was a car behind me and they were not going fast. my car shut off and i lose control of the steering because of the loss of power. i have to put the car in park and then try to start the vehicle. i would like this issue addressed i have complained about this since 2006.

My durango has started to switch to 4wheel drive on it's own while i'm driving and especially while turning. it makes steering and maneuvering the vehicle very difficult and nearly caused an accident in heavy traffic.

I turned left sharply into a parking spot and the vehicle completely stalled on me upon doing this. i lost all engine power, steering and brake control. i was able to restart the vehicle immediately and park the vehicle. for the previous 3 weeks or so the vehicle has sputtered and been sluggish when turning sharply into parking spots or around sharp corners but has never stalled. 8/19/15 was the first incident of the vehicle completely stalling.

For many months dodge has known about the potential for the airbag to deploy spontaneously. (i called them then when i first heard about the problem on the news) i finally received a recall notice a couple weeks ago and it advised me of the potential problem but that they will not have the parts to fix it for an indefinite amount of time. i have heard reports that it could be 2 years before it may be fixed. i feel that this is a ridiculous length of time to secure the safety of my family. is it possible to expedite this repair or to make my car a part of the new decision against chrysler to buy back the car? there wasn't a specific incident that prompted my complaint. thank you. *tr

The car dint show any sing of having problem staring or stalling or nothing the engine just made a big noise like something blew up and everything shut off. i am glad i dint had my kids with at the time cuz i was driving all day and the truck was fine it doesn't make sense how it just blew up out of nowhere and for only having 105 miles on it its too soon when everything was done in time.

The vehicle has begun to switch itself into 4wd while driving at low speeds, usually during or shortly after an extended turn such as a ramp. no indicator lights come on but i believe based on the way it drives that it must be in 4lo. once the vehicle is in 4wd it will not respond to the 4wd switch and so far it has taken turning the vehicle off to disengage the 4wd.the svc 4wd light has come on 3-4 times, but not in conjunction with the other issue, and not for more than 2 minutes at a time.

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.

Durango quit runing wile going 45 mph

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: nhtsa investigation #rq08005 led to recall #09v003000 nhtsa 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.

I have replaced the cylinder switch on my truck which cost me $465.00 to get a new 1 in order to crank my truck aaa repaired this for me in 2014,i've also had a leak sealed up in the coolant area all my freon was leaking out now the windows on the truck will not go down the only thing that opens is the sunroof.i had the truck put on a machine at a shop here they said it was the canbus system under the hood that is inside the computer that is causing this but my truck also has a recall on it as well,i have a white 2005 dodge durango hemi 7.5l truck vin number [xxx] yet to hear anything on the recall 07/25/2015. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

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. *jb

My durango has started to engage into 4 wheel drive on its own. it does this when parked and when driving. it now is stuck in four wheel drive and cannot drive on the pavement. this seems to me to be a serious problem and should be recalled by dodge.

The vehicle transfer case changes from awd to 4hi and 4lo without the switch being moved. this has most often happened at low speeds such as when pulling into a parking space, but when switching to 4lo causes difficulty steering due to the front wheels being locked together. twice i have come close to hitting another vehicle while parking due to this issue. i have also heard the transfer case switching between modes with the vehicle turned off. i am very concerned about this happening at higher speeds.

Engine stalls with no warning, affecting braking and steering while moving, has happened in heavy traffic, is intermittent and is a huge safety concern.

The vehicles dash board lights will all light up, at one point i would have the gas floored and it would feel like i'm towing a house it started getting worse to the point the car would stall while driving so i would put it in neutral and it would start back up when the lights aren't on it runs fine but once the light come on the dash board it acts up and all the lights come on temperature, check engine, air bag, 4x4, oil light ,battery light ,etc dodge flashed my computer it worked for a week and then started again i have had many mechanics look at it along with dodge and no one can figure out the problem , recently starting 5/27/15 the problems have proceeded to get extremely dangerous now once all the lights light up it stalls and may not restart several times i've been stuck on the highway waiting an hour or two to restart it and now it only gets me a few feet then stalls plus its now doing it with no lights on the dash ,rpms ,mph etc , and when it drives sometimes there is nothing on dash but when i hit brakes all the gauges will shoot up temperature and fuel even if its not a full rank it will say it then when i step on gas the dash board goes out, i have contacted corporate dodge to resolve this issue telling them i've seen several numerous complaints the same as mine but yet no recall so they now want me once again to take it to dodge, june 9th 2015 , but today june 3rd 2015 , i stalled in the street on rt 9 and it would not start at all to the point i had to call a tow truck then once the tow truck dropped it at my house it started but all the lights were lit up on dash ,if i was able to post pictures and videos on here i would because i video the dash every time it does it and i plan to show dodge the videos on the 9th , dodge needs to resolve this issue. *tr

Ac/heater blower resistor and harness burn out leaving the vehicle with no heater or cool air. i have had to have this now replaced once by the dealership, once by my brother who is a mechanic that teachers at unoh in ohio, and the last couple of time by my husband and myself. the part is not real costley but the labor is for a dealership to fix it. dodge/fiat need to find a solution.

I bought the vehicle used and researched the problem of "fuel spitting", which my vehicle does. this model was under recall chrysler h45, but not my vin #. why hasn't this been recalled? it is a fire hazard and is ruining body components when the fuel spits back. please add this vin to the recall list so i can get the problem fixed at chryler's expense. thanks

I'm contacting you in regards to my 2005 dodge durango. i have encountered it stalling making turns, driving down the street and at lights. i have researched the issue after having a tune up on the vehicle with no success. after researching, i have found that thousands of people are having the same exact issue. i have printed off from several sites the complaints identical to mine. this is definitely a recall for this vehicle and should be replaced by chrysler/dodge. i have found that a lot of people are finding that the issue is the egr system. the same thing with the air bag issue that i'm receiving, i'll be driving down the road and get an alert that the passenger air bag was turned off when someone is in the seat. there is two recalls in place now for air bag issues. i really hope that you will investigate this and reach out to chrysler to get this resolved for consumers.

The gas will not shut off when refueling the vehicle. gas runs out on the ground. i have a light that comes on saying gas cap even though i bought a new one. and i have rust on the side where gas has run down the vehicle. i have also had an incident where everything electrical in my vehicle has went crazy. lights flashing gauges malfuctioning and at this time it would not take any fuel you could push on the accelerator all you wanted but it would not take fuel. i have read where other people have had problems with their gas refueling to. this is a very serious and dangerous problem. i would like an investigation into this and i would like a response please. i think the manufacture should be held responsible for their mistakes and this is clearly their mistake. *tr

My 2005 dodge durango hemi has started to behave oddly. first...it started with not being able to lift the gate in the back? just locked up and we could not open it for months. it then progressed to an issue with the remote not working to unlock anything. we took it to the dealership who quoted us at $350 + to fix the remote...ummm no. since then i have been opening my door using the key. late last year i began to notice that the tires would lock up and not move forward or backwards when completing a sharp turn (ie: turning into the driveway) this was followed by the 4lo light flashing on and off on the dashboard while driving. then i started hearing the truck actually attempt to switch itself in and out of awd! this creates a crazy clicking and shifting sound in the wheel well area on the drivers side. this occurs randomly while i an driving as well as when the car is parked and off? we took it to pep boys whom could not find anything wrong with it? i am concerned that i will attempt to make a fast sharp turn into traffic and the tires will lock up leaving me screwed. i have been reading online that there are thousands of people having this same exact problem and whenever anyone has the dealership replace something...it continues to happen. i think dodge needs to recall all of these vehicles as they are a safety threat to families!! *tr

After filling up vehicle, a quantity of gasoline flushed out of the fuel filler neck causing a distinct fire hazard. this has occurred for each fill up. *tr

Vehicle switched to 4x4 mode on it's own. *tr

Was driving and all of a sudden i smelt something burning in the dash board and all instrument lights started to get dim and dimmer and then i notice smoke coming from the dashboard and all most immediately the door locks and windows stop working, the car would lock itself and the windows stop working at all and at this point the rear door do not open at all. i ask the dealer at the lot that i bought it from at the time of purchase if the vehicle had been in a accident or was there any recalls on this vehicle and he said no and that i bought the van as is and to this day i cant get this dealer to see that this car is unsafe to operate and that i am not going to risk mine nor my kids life to drive it and he will not even trade me out of this car for something better. the other day i was fueling the van and all of a sudden gasoline shot back out the tank and spilled gas all over me, scared the hell out of me. not only that, i was driving down the interstate in my state and out of no where my seat on its own terms began to move forward all the way to the steering wheeling pressing me to the wheel and i am 6ft 3in tall and weigh 230lbs i again call the dealership to complain and got the same story that i agreed to purchase the vehicle as is, i agreed that i did but i told him that i do not think that he told me everything that i needed to know about possible safety issues. and again i have four children age 6 months to four years old whom i love very dearly. *tr

Hi, i could not access the odometer fraud section so here is my question. how is it that the dept of motor vehicle in tallahassee that issues title do not do anything about odometer rollback, i thought that was illegal. i purchased an suv and much later i discovered there is a discrepancy in the odometer from carfax history. doesn't this issue show up when the dmv is doing a title for a new owner when they enter the vin and mileage from the bill of sale? why is this illegality allowed to happen, do they just issue a title for a stolen vehicle? *tr

I went to fill my tank up on saturday march 7th 2015. i just purchase the vehicle that day. gas started spurting out of the tank and got all over my hands. i then took the vehicle out for a drive on sunday morning with my girlfriend and the vehicle stalled and i almost rolled back on the car behind men. this happens two more times throughout the day. then today tuesday march 10th i drove to my parents and noticed the car sputtering upon gradual acceleration. *tr

Fuel system - replce fuel pump still check engine light stays on denostic says fuel tank sensor ,i replace with new pump still say same thing .gas over flow when pumping full tank of gas .gas evaporate quickly. *tr

Service 4wd light came on,and goes into lo 4wd when going slow,also making clicking noise when vehicle is not running like it's trying to engage into 4wd,scared this is going to go into lo and cause a severe accident,nobody seems to know what to do to correct the problem. *tr

Driving on i-43 to work, the 4 wheel lo light flashed and went out. a few minutes later it flashed again, except this time it locked in 4 wheel lo at 70 mph during morning rush hour traffic. this caused the vehicle to rapidly slow down from 70 mph to 25 mph. i had check the vehicle codes with no errors. on the way home, i had to stop several times to cycle the transfer case, in order to disengage the 4 wheel lo. reading many blogs on the internet, this seems to be an issue with 2004 through 2007 dodge 4 wheel drive vehicles. mechanic states that without a code, they will just start replacing parts until the correct one is found. this could take $2000.00 to $3000.00. *tr

The car locks it's wheels and doesn't run. when coming to a stop light the brakes do not respond and it jerks trying to stop and accelerate at the same time. the ignition switch also catches and does not start. i've taken the durango to the dealership and i'm always told that nothing is wrong with it. *tr

This vehicle occasionally stalls, leaving no power steering or power brakes. this was not a single incident; this has happened probably 50 times over the past 4 years. it has happened at multiple vehicle speeds, and has happened in both forward ("drive") and reverse gears. the vehicle has always immediately restarted, and it drives normally after restarting. there is no warning or indication that the engine is about to stall, and no check engine (or other) light comes on before or after the incident. the most recent incident happened after dropping my son off at his school. while driving through the school parking lot to leave, the vehicle stalled and i wasn't able to control it (very high steering effort, difficult to stop). i almost hit another vehicle. i also realized the severity of this problem because it could have been a child instead of another vehicle which i nearly struck. a quick web search produced results showing other drivers of dodge durangos have experienced the same stalling phenomenon, so i'm confident that this is a defect in the design or manufacturing of the vehicle, and not just a single case of my vehicle being bad. please look into this further, as it has the same safety implications as the ignition switch failures within gm. *tr

I bought my 05 durango back in may of 05 and i've had to deal with all three of the major complaints, the fuel spewing out, the stalling, and the 4x4 activating! the fuel thing i always noticed but always thought it was something that just happened. the 4x4 engaging happened when it still had the power train warranty so i took it to the dealer to get it repaired. the good thing is that they fixed it, the bad thing is that it wasn't covered under the warranty! they told me that they replaced the 4x4 control module and i haven't had a problem since then! i'm not positive if that's the name of the module. this was back in 2008 and i haven't had that problem since then. hopefully that helps some that are dealing with that same issue! the stalling happens here and there, not too often and usually when i'm at a stop sign. i love my durango, just hate the way dodge is just leaving all its customers on their own when there should be recalls for all these issues!! acting like they've never heard of those problems when every owner has the same issues! ill never buy dodge again! and it sucks because im looking into buying a new car, and i like the new durango. but there's no way i'll buy dodge, or chrysler for that matter! *tr

I have a 2005 dodge durango 5.7 we have had multiple issues with the fuel tanks when i go to fill up it spews gas back out at me. i bought this car used about 3 yrs ago contacted dodge and they told me that mine is not a part of the 2 recalls that they have with the exact same issue so it was not a safety concern to them. we had the original tank replaced within a few mths and had to take it back immediately for the exact same issue. after that it worked well for the past 2.5 yrs and now i'm having the exact same issue with the tank again. i bought this needed a big vehicle for my family. i don't think that i should be having to replace tank assemblies every few yrs for an issue that the company knows about. *tr

On any number of occasions (regardless of outside temperature or whether or not the vehicle was at normal operating temperature) while the vehicle is at a slow speed (in forward or reverse) the engine will stall without warning. with the loss of engine power comes the normal loss of power steering and power brakes. it appears to be most frequent when pulling into or out of a parking lot, stop sign, etc. the slow speeds are not inherently dangerous, except for the fact that stalling while in traffic and suddenly reducing speed or stopping puts myself and other motorist in jeopardy. when backing into a parking space, the loss of steering and braking capabilities create a risk of minor damage to other parked cars and could put a pedestrian at risk while being distracted and not being able to stop or steer as easily. there are no obvious sounds or engine or transmission noises or vibrations or anything to give warning that this could occur. *tr

This has happened on multiple occasions!!!!! it happens at any speed, the truck will lose all power and shut off without warning. i can't steer or do anything but put the truck in park and restart the truck. i have taken it in the be looked at and nothing can be figured out as it does it randomly. i have four children and this last time we were turning and the truck just shut off while another vehicle was coming down the street. i have researched this and sees others are having the same issue. i have had some of the suggestions done such as replacing the egr valve and flushing the system. i need an answer as i do not feel safe!!!!!!!!!! *tr

Fuel fill burps when tank is almost filled with fuel causing it to run down the sides of the vehicle it is a safety issue due to the possibility of it causing a fire. have not received notice on this recall yet. *tr

My airbag light has been illuminating and when i did a recall search an airbag recall did come up but there is no fix? also when i fill the gas tank i get major splash back. huge fire issue. i know there was a recall on some 2005 dodge durangos for that problem but the dealer said my vin was not included and wouldn't fix it. how can i get my vin included? another issue is the engine light comes on and reads code p0456(very small emissions leak)..but the emissions system has been gone over and gone over but there is nothing that would indicate a leak. *tr

I am not happy that my vin number pulls up only one recall when a few of the issues that i am having are on the recall list. for starters the side of my vehicle is flaking paint and not to mention everytime i fuel it, gas spurts all over the vehicle and ground. a major fire hazard especially when my children are in the back 2 seats. *tr

My 2005 durango started this about 2 wks ago; searching other forums and my mechanic searched his sites, it's most likely an electrical issue having to do with the ac shorting out voltage to the transfer case...i am sending a letter off to dodge corporate as there are so many complaints about this issue from other dodge durango & ram owners, who like me, feel it should be a recall issue. i am not about to bring it in only to have a mechanic "try" to fix the issue and replace the wrong part so i have to go in repeatedly and spend money i don't have until (if even) it is solved. i would rather trade it in for something else. hoping by sending a letter to corporate they will consider a recall notice or help me to get the problem fixed. *tr

Transfer case motor engages while driving going from awd to four wheel lo. this can potentially cause a very bad accident. 4wlo light flickers and transfer case motor engages even with vehicle shut off. *tr

My 2005 dodge durango will go into 4 wheel low with out warning and will shift into 4 wheel lock with out warning there is something goin on with the 2005 dodge durango i have read many forums with 500 people saying the same thing . please make dodge recall this as it is going to result in fatalities . a lot of people are changing the transfer case , transfer case motor and electrical and it keeps doing the same thing to make these vehicles unreliable and can cause death to my family and others as well please make dodge recall the 4 wheel drive . thank you *tr

While driving on the freeway, i noticed that my 4 lo warning light was flashing on my instrument panel. once i came to a safe stop, i could hear what sounded like my 4 wheel drive actively trying to engage itself by making a clanking noise. several days later, it did the same thing, only this time, it succeeded in shifting itself into 4 wheel drive but only for a brief period. now it does this on a daily basis and will even do this in my garage with the keys out of the ignition. it will also do this when i use the key fob to unlock my doors. please look into this as there are several other durango owners who are experiencing the same issue. my worry is that it will find a way to shift itself into 4 lo while either my wife or myself are driving down the freeway. if that happens, it could be catastrophic. this is something that dodge needs to recall to prevent any injuries or deaths. people have attempted to replace the transfer case, replace wiring, and several other fix attempts but to no avail. as a 16-year career firefighter, i am pleading with you to look into this. *js

My 2005 dodge durango switched from awd to 4x4 while i was driving. which almost made me loose control of the vehicle with family in the car, this was very scary and dangerous, thank god we weren't on the highway. svc 4wd light is coming on, 4loc and 4lo flash and transfer case motor clicks while driving or just idling, sometimes clicks when i unlock the doors. researched issue on the net and found several forums and discovered that this is happening to a lot of people, this needs to become a recall fast before someone gets hurt or worse. i currently pulled plug on transfer case motor and have it locked in awd drive, hope this holds, but i paid for 4 wheel drive as did many other people. from what i've read this has been going on for years. dodge needs to make this right. thank you.

Wiper assembly broken driver side doesn't move anymore. *tr

Every time i went to fill the gas tank it had a delay overflow . started out with about a cup of gasoline and then increased to about 3/4 of a pint and this is even when filling very slowly. i checked online and found that there had been a recall on durango's in 2005 for gas tanks overflowing because of a defective check valve. when i contacted the dealer he said that recall did not apply to my vin number?. i do not see how that can be. i have owned many cars over 40 years and never had one overfill the fuel tank and splash all over you. *tr

I can not fill up my vehicle all the way because fuel spews out before the pump shuts off. i have contacted the dealer and they will not look at it as a defect or recall anymore. i have to pay for it. i do not think that this right because this is a very serious security hazard. this issue is clearly a serious problem and could cause serious injuries or even death if an ignition source happened to blow nearby. i think the dealer should fix it free of charge. i know that there has been a recall on this before so the dealer should fix any issue that comes up concerning all factory defects and/or recalls regardless of how long it has been. *tr

When i put gas on my car the valve in the fuel thank does not close and leak gasoline to the floor. *js

Stalling at various speeds (15 to 40 mph). complete loss of power. sometimes will re-start in park and sometimes in neutral. changed crank and cam sensor. had throttle body cleaned. fuel injector cleaner used. nothing fixed the problem. this is not the durango problem with the "leaking cowl". had the cowl gasket replaced. there is no water dripping on the engine causing misfire or "hydro locking". soon after suv would not start at all. the dodge dealership replaced the pcm (main computer) costing almost $1300.00.stalled twice since then. dangerous problem *js

The dodge durango 2005 model in my case will shut off very often now when the steering wheel is turn...this often times happen when pulling in or backing out of a parking lot and the vehicle would take up 5-20mins to restart.this happen when the vehicle is cold or warm it doesn't matter.i have seen online this is a wide spread problem with the durangos and i'm wondering why are folks allowed to suffer through this issue in the mean time the dealership pretend as if they're not aware of the issue which is clearly a lie from all the complaint i've seen online about this very issue...going back for years.... *tr

As i went to work today, i noticed my truck was kicking when accelerating down the street. as i would come up to a complete stop, the truck would still keep on going. i have been hearing clicking when i open up the driver door , and on occasion on my daily commute to work, i was noticing the 4lo light blink. well, today, i drove to work, and on the interstate, the 4lo light came on without blinking. a solid color. i started to see a lot of white smoke come from under the hood of the car, and from the bottom of the car as well. i pulled over to look at the vehicle and noticed that the truck was leaking all the tranny fluid. i was blocks from work, when i went back into the durango and noticed that the extreme heat light had turned on in the dashboard. i waited about 30 minutes until i turned my truck back on , and begin to drive to work. it was still kicking and now it felt like the tranny was slipping. i finally made it to work. the truck was engulfed in smoke . i've noticed that when the 4lo lights start blinking, i have a hard time trying to turn the wheels left or right, and my wheels lock. this should be a transfer case recall... its a real big safety issue. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while operating the vehicle in wet conditions, the engine suddenly began to misfire and the check engine light illuminated. the contact indicated that the vehicle had stalled on several occasion while being operated in the rain or after washing the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. the technician diagnosed that the problem was caused by water leaking into the engine compartment causing the engine sensor to activate. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. the failure mileage was 130,000.

Vehicle purchased used in june 2010. within days of purchase, vehicle began stalling while pulling out into traffic. vehicle was returned to the dealer several times. egr valve was replaced and throttle service done, idler pulley replaced. stalling problem continued to occur on and off along with hard shifting, hesitating, lack of power issues. transmission rebuilt in jan 2012 after it "froze" backing out of the driveway. bell housing leak detected and fixed in june 2012. stalling worsened, occurring not only from start up but while traveling straight in acceleration to speeds just above 40 mph. revving in park, neutral and while stopped in traffic started in early 2013 and continues today. have had vehicle in for service on numerous occasions with no fix to the problem. torque converter clutch, water pump, fuel injector, coil, vacuum sensor, air intake sensor, knock sensor, pcv valve, plugs and wires have all been replaced or repaired but problems persist. this vehicle is a danger as it stalls without warning in heavy traffic and when pulling out into traffic and revs so high at stops that i have had to put both feet on the brake to prevent it from lurching into the vehicle in front of me. *tr

My vehicle as well as many others that i've read have been having issues with the 4wd, this is a problem that should have a recall as to how many individuals have the same problems. svc 4wd light comes on and then back off 4 lo light flashes when car is more so off/ but occasionally when on, makes a clicking noise, which what i could find and from others, is the transfer case changing occasionally when in reverse/drive the car either locks or acts as if the rear wheels are locked i do know there is no recall for these issues, but if you were to take the time to check into this, i feel you would also agree with everyone that this is a manufacturing/malfunction in possible the transfer case. i'm sure it doesn't matter, but i am a single mother of 3 and yes i know there are so many more just like me, but i cant afford to have take my vehicle in to be fixed especially when it should be a recall issue! please please look into this. *tr

Today my durango lurched forward uncontrollably, hitting 3 cars in the parking lot at the elementary school where i work. my foot was not on the accelerator. there was no way i could have accelerated that quickly in 12-14 feet to cause that kind of damage. if there had been any children out there, they could have been killed! it was the most terrifying thing that ever happened to me. a recall needs to be issued immediately or someone will be hurt or killed. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while driving at approximately 65 mph, the four wheel drive activated independently and the vehicle independently shifted between gears. the failure occurred on numerous occasions. the contact also stated that the vehicle stalled without warning. the vehicle was able to restart. in addition, the a/c independently operated, the headlights and the instrument panel lights failed intermittently. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 92,000.

Gas tank on 2005 dodge durango shoots gas out when filling the tank. called the dodge recall center and they said there are no "open" recalls. it seems to me that it the gas tank overflows and is a fire/explosion hazard, they should have to fix the problem. not just say the recall period has ended and be done with it. any advice on how to get this corrected? *tr

Problem started with "srv 4 wd" light on dash going on and going off at random while driving. soon after this initial problem, with vehicle parked and ignition off,4 wheel drive attempts to engage and disengage. the engage/disengage process may occur 2 to 6 times. the sound of this engagement/disengagement is clearly audible. on one occasion the vehicle actually engaged four wheel drive but there was no light on the dash indicating the vehicle was in 4 wheel drive. after driving the vehicle approximately .5 miles, 4 wheel drive disengaged with a very loud shift noise. at this same time, the "4 lo" display light on the dash began to flicker. it now blinks as if the vehicle is attempting to engage "4 lo" while the vehicle is in motion and the selector set to all wheel drive. i am still able to engage and disengage four wheel drive using the selector switch on the dash manually as is the case with normal 4 wheel drive operation for this vehicle. at this point the vehicle has not switched from awd to 4 wd while in motion at highway speed. i am aware however this is a situation which can occur during vehicle operation while experiencing these 4 wheel drive malfunctions. *tr

My vehicle shuts off while driving. this has happened multiple times. i can't steer the vehicle because everything shuts off. it is very dangerous and i am very concerned. i have read many of the same complaints on the internet from people having the same problems. *tr

The central timer module (ctm) or body computer as some call it went bad causing the 4 wheel drive to engage or disengage without warning. when the 4 wheel drive engages while driving it makes it nearly impossible to make tight turns and at low speeds you are unable to turn at all. the part also causes the wipers to randomly engage, the door locks to randomly engage or disengage, and more. *tr

My 2005 dodge durango shifts back and forth between 4wd and awd randomly. the 4wd light will come on and the vehicle shifts into lock without warning, making driving difficult and backups jumpy and jerky. it will shift back and run properly, but does not stay functioning long. there is a 'drag'€™ feeling to the vehicle when it slips into 4wd. this has made driving the durango a concern and nearly tripled the amount of gas used for similar mileage. i am concerned that this could be a real safety issue. it goes into 4wd-lo and the tires lock up. if this were to happen at 70 mph, this could cause a spin out. when stopped at a light waiting to turn left the car occasionally 'shifts' without notice and then it is difficult to make the turn. when expecting the car to move properly on a busy road, this '€˜sluggish' response is a serious problem. pulling out with plenty of time to turn before the light changes isn't a guarantee that you will actually make the turn before the light turns red. i want to be able to trust my vehicle, which i used to be able to do. i have read numerous accounts online about this same problem occurring for other 2005 durango owners. clearly, this is not an isolated incident unique to my vehicle. i have also seen reports that people having this same issue are also having remote door lock issues, which makes me wonder if there is also an electrical issue with the vehicle. *tr

Vehicle stalled while driving, completely froze up. was unable to use brakes, steering wheel was also affected. was very scary as we were driving in traffic. this has happened on more than one occasion while driving and also when backing out of driveway. *tr

Engine will without warning lurch forward. it will also completely shut down making steering and braking extremely difficult. this vehicle had no codes showing and repair shop can't replicate the problem this lurching of the vehicle has occurred almost daily. and has completely shut down twice. i drive with two kids in the car and this is extremely dangerous. their are several complaints with the exact same problem. *tr

I was circling to the left around a build to park and doing about 5 mph when the engine stalled. it restarted immediately but stalled again as i turned right into a parking spot. another stall happened in the afternoon as i was attempting to park straight into a parking spot. a fourth stall happened while i was stopped at a red light. with the fourth stall, i noticed that the tachometer suddenly dropped from about 700 rpm (where it usually idles) to about 300 rpm, hovered there for a moment and then stalled. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that the driver side air bag warning indicator illuminated continuously. the vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing and the warning indicator dimmed, but the failure recurred. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer stated that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 14v354000 (air bags). the approximate failure mileage was 70,000.

My 2005 dodge durango has an issue with the transfer case. when using the key fob to unlock the doors, the transfer case will switch from awd to 4wd hi on its on. also while driving the service 4wd light will appear and it will switch to 4wd hi and if going around a turn. my wheels have locked up causing me to slide and almost hitting another vehicles. i believe this is unsafe and have been many complaints. how many more of these have to happen and ends up taking someones life. i would like to see this issue resolved.

Vehicle switches to 4lock automatically while driving at high and low speeds. vehicle becomes sluggish and makes it impossible to turn. at this point i fear for my life. after reading so many complaints of the same issue. i see i'm not alone.

Durango is stalling while i am driving it. first time it stalled i was on a onramp to enter the freeway. i was lucky the car behind did not hit me. the vehicle stalls when i am trying to find a parking place and sometimes when i am trying to leave my driveway. it has never happen yet at high speed only at low speeds but i do think this is dangerous. i have taken the vehicle into the dealership twice. it does not happen for them. there are no warning lights. it just happens but it has not happened for them. so i am driving not knowing when the vehicle will stall out. i am under warranty.

I have a 2005 dodge durango 4.7l and when filling the gas tank the gas splashes out when the pump shuts off. even when pumping slowly it still comes out of the filler neck and onto the ground. if pumping faster it tends to shoot up and out. this is a hazard and needs to be fixed asap.there is a recall out for this problem on the 2005 durango but mine is not one of the vin numbers that qualifies. the dealer says the entire gas tank needs to be replaced due to the check valve getting stuck and not closing properly. i have read several forum sites where other people have the same issue and chrysler is not replacing those parts. *tr

Having 3 major issues that can be life threating..1) driving at any speed sometimes vehicle will completely shut off leaving me on the highway at 60mph no power steering 2) filling gas tank up no matter if i go slow will always spit lots of gas back out of the neck 3) 4x4 is engaging by itself. i can park it turn motor off and you can hear it going into 4x4 without me being in the vehicle or touching the 4x4 knob. this has cause me issue steering when it decides to go into 4x4 mode by itself. i need to know if their is current complaints about the above issues and how can i get them fix without me paying

This vehicle clicks into 4 wheel drive randomly and won't come out. the vehicle was being driven at 55mph when it kicked out of gear and quit. it sounded as if the transfer case dropped out of the vehicle and driver felt as if going to go through the front windshield. the 4x4 kicks in and out, and won't steer. driving is difficult and vehicle barely moves. when called chrysler they don't know what it is and suggest trying multiple different things but nothing is guaranteed, and will cost thousands of dollars to fix more than the cost of the vehicle. while vehicle is not turned on but key is in hand you can hear the actuating motor clicking in and out. very difficult to drive and when vehicle stalls won't start back up. a safety hazard on the highway, and apparently there are numerous complaints of the same kind. this needs to be addressed by chrysler.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. while driving approximately 55 mph, the contact heard an abnormal noise and observed smoke rising from under the hood of the vehicle. the contact discovered oil leaking from under the vehicle. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 214,000.

Vehicle stalled while pulling into a parking stall. when that happens you lose complete power and it is extremely difficult to steer. the dodge dealer claims to have no idea of what i'm talking about nor did it do the same to them when they were driving. when they called to talk about fixing some issues with the vehicle they were trying to charge me $959.00 to change an alternator that is working at 90% and the efr. this does not guarantee the problem will be fixed. these are 2 (two) codes their machine is throwing. their machine does not indicate anything about stalling. *tr

While. i'm driving my suv lock up the 4 wheel light come on out of no where and then 4 low light come on i have been smelling a burning smell and don't know where it's coming from everyone whom look at it don't know what's wrong. all i know is yesterday i was on the highway and the same thing happen again with no warning even when i lock my car door i hear this funny noise. *tr

When i'm driving in traffic (approx 30-45 mph) or stopped at a light, my vehicle randomly shuts off. there's no indication this will happen. no lights flash or anything. the truck simply stops. i take it to mechanics and they say they can't identify the problem--but they recognize there's a problem. i'm fearful for the safety of my family in the vehicle and/or anyone we encounter when this happens. it's nearly impossible to steer the vehicle out of traffic, and the steering locks up as well. i've had the cooling system flushed, transmission replaced to no avail. is there a recall on this thing?! there sure should be! i'm sure someone has died by now due to this malfunction. *tr

Was driving along and the "4lo" light had been flashing on and off intermittently for about 3 weeks. occasionally the "svc awd" light would flash afterwards. when the latter happened, the car would lock into 4 wheel drive from awd. but when the crash happened, the transfer case actually shifted into 4lo and the rear wheels locked up and the car spun sideways and stopped quick enough to avoid any damage or injury. no one at dodge can explain this, or fix it. *tr

The tire pressure warning light on my 2005 dodge durango limited hemi has been on for approximately 3-4 years. other than this issue, the vehicle is in excellent condition (50,500 miles). after dealing with several dealerships, i filed a complaint with chrysler and was given a case number. a chrysler case manager named "paul" (1-800-763-8422 ext. 66371) notified me via voice-mail today that they will not pay to resolve/investigate the matter. the case manager is clearly avoiding speaking to me by contacting me at my home number during the day, even after i left him a message with my primary contact number. the issue: this vehicle was subject to an instrument cluster/wiring recall in 2007. i obtained a copy of the claim form. the cluster was not replaced, however, the wiring was modified. apparently, this recall was done due to overheating issues. so far, i haven't experienced this issue. but the tire pressure warning light should not be on - especially given the fact that my vehicle is not equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (tpms). clearly, the wrong cluster is installed in the vehicle and/or the wiring modification was done incorrectly as part of the recall. i believe, these issues came to the forefront when the battery was low and/or replaced. the internet/forums are littered with issues regarding the instrument cluster and electrical issues with the durangos manufactured during 2005-2007. the "labor operation number" is 08-g0-71-82 as part of safety recall g07. i am in the process of obtaining a quote from the dealership to investigate and fix the matter. a rough estimate is the cost will be approximately $1,000. chrysler is avoiding taking responsibility for an issue(s) directly related to a matter subject to a previous recall. i would greatly appreciate this matter be thoroughly investigated. please contact me. *js

My durango shift into 4 wheel hi and 4 wheel lo by itself while driving and while sitting. this cause my truck while driving to jerk and it locks the wheels up. this situation causes difficulty to turn also. *tr

Svc light comes on and if engaged in 4 wheel drive! the passenger air bag light goes on and off. sometimes all electrical goes hay wire...svc, radio, cd player and air bag light. *tr

While i'm driving down the road it could be the interstate or in town, doing 30 to 55 miles per hour depending on where i am, my husband's engine light will turn on in his 2005 dodge durango after the wheel begins stiffening and my lights all shut off and i am costing into opposing traffic lane or in the middle of traffic with my 4 children and myself, sometimes it is just me and once it was with my husband and children. the engine light will stay solid and all of this happens after when suv will cut off with no warning, instantly my steering wheel gets stiff and i cannot turn, my lights go off and the radio and headlights shut off. i have no control over the vehicle at the time. this us happening more and more. this also has happened when i am coming to a stoplight or a stop sign other times when i'm coming out of a stop and the suv is still running at that time. very unpredictable and dangerous. no warnings, he has had the suv 1 year. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while refueling the vehicle, fuel spewed through the filler neck and onto the contact. the contact also mentioned that the check engine and abs warning lights illuminated intermittently. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel tank filler inlet check valve needed to be replaced. in addition, the dealer informed the contact that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign id number: 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline). the failure mileage was 89,600 and the current mileage was 106,200.

The power train or something starts to change gears when you unlock the doors. the car is not even running and it starts shifting. sometimes it locks itself into 4 wheel drive, when you are going down the street. *tr

The steering wheel locks and the car is not able to be started. *tr

Summary: when i parked and exited/locked my 2005 dodge durango, i could hear the transfer case switching all on its own. on my way home the svc 4wd light lit and then 4lo began flashing. we left on vacation and when i came home and backed the car out there was a loud noise and it is undriveable. i have read many reports of other ownwer's vehicles doing the same thing on years 2004 & 2005 with the hemi motor and the dealers not knowing what is going on and charging several expensive repairs for different findings not always fixing the problem. *tr

As i approached my vehicle and used the remote to open the doors, i heard a noise under the vehicle like gears were shifting on their own without the vehicle even running. i started the vehicle and started driving. when i went into a parking lot and turned left to park, it was like someone was putting on the brakes making it difficult for me to turn and to accelerate--felt like i was in 4wd despite not shifting to 4wd from awd. i nearly hit the car next to mine because i had to accelerate so hard to get into the spot without getting hit from the rear. i turned the car off and let it sit for 1/2 hour and restarted it and drove home. when i let the car sit in the garage, i was in the garage and heard gears shifting on their own while the vehicle was not running. this has already happened 3 times and it is quite scary! if i try to turn left and this happens on the road, i could get into a serious accident. *tr

Vehicle will illuminate "svc awd" and the vehicle will automatically switch vehicle into different gears while driving on its on. one day the vehicle switched to 4lo while in drive, not changes were made. another time while vehicle was parked, no key in the ignition, when hit the unlock button on the key you can hear the vehicle switching gears on its again! while making a sharp turn to park the vehicle switched into neutral on its on and was unable to drive or reverse. i put the vehicle in park waited a fe seconds restarted it and parked and the svc awd light was still on. i have had the ignition switch replaced, along with the transmission and transfer case all within the first 6 months of 2014. the svc awd light comes on and off on it own randomly. i am not sure what the issue is and neither does the dealer. i had the ignition switch changed at a palmer chrysler dodge jeep dealership and the svc awd light is still on the vehicle continues to switch gears on its own. *tr

Vehicle misfires during acceleration. almost caused vehicle to be rear ended pulling out into traffic. after having it looked at by the dealer, found out i am not the only one with the problem. it stems from a design defect in the rain cowl that allows water to pass through the windshield wiper opening where it runs onto the engine and pools in the spark plug holes, causing a short. chrysler redesigned the cowl to correct the problem but did not notify owners or recall the vehicles to fix the issue. *tr

Moisture entered into the cylinders via that air intake manifold due to a water seal design defect in the area of the windshield wiper arms. when the vehicle is parked, rain water coming down the front windshield will flow directly under the cowl and onto the engine block. this water intrusion causes undue stress on the pistons, rods, and crankshaft eventually causing a rod to break and puncture the engine block. if this happens at highway speeds, the results could be deadly. the other known scenario is after the car is parked for a period of time (exposed to rain), the cylinder will fill with water, causing a hydro-lock condition and the vehicle will not start. the engine usually is found to also have a bent or fractured rod at this point. this is a known problem by dodge / chrysler and they refuse to do anything about it. see the numerous complaints on edmunds.com blogs and on youtube regarding this topic. i made a video of the problem so you see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtq2gkno0n8. *tr

Everytime it rain water is getting inside the engine due a defect water cowling at the windshield that let water into the intake and spark plug ignition coil causing engine misfire and hydro lock causing the engine to fail . there had been lots of complaint about this issues with customers who own 2004-2006 dodge durango and chrysler is refusing to fix it . i made a video to show you the problem . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtq2gkno0n8. *tr

My car started having problems with the 4 wheel drive. it would start jerking at slow speed whole turning (usually while parking). shortly after that the 4lo light started flashing. the car would also make a sound while parked like something was trying to switch on, this would happen usually after using the keyless entry remote. i've done quite a bit of research and this seems to be a problem a lot of dodge durango owners have. i have since had the 4wd disconnected and have not had the problem but that's not a permanent fix. *tr

Fuel overflows when you fill the tank up. gas kicks back smell gas fumes while parked some times. dealer says its not covered. but there is a recall for fuel tank check valve. vehicle was already corrected once for same issue. problem reoccurred. *js

Car is shutting off and the power steering is locking during slight turns. once in my driveway, once at a drive thru and once in a field while parking at the air show. the one at the air show took 15 minutes to get the wheel to unlock to finally restart the car. this has happened 3 times in 5 days now. i'm afraid for my wife to drive the car (it's her car) now. the kids were in it 2 out of the 3 times. very very scary. *tr

I have a 2005 dodge durango limited 4x4 it constantly locks into 4lo and 4lock all on its own and engages on its own even with vehicle off most times locking in 4lo causing tires to stick and very difficult to drive or turn this happens at any rate of speed also when first starting truck and putting it in drive or reverse transmission is gives a loud air leaking noise and takes a long time to pick up and drive i have just recently bought this vehicle and have taken it back to the dealer multiple times to be told they are unsure what is causing the issue. i have done research and see that several dodge durango owners are having this issue please help. *tr

This is my 2nd 2005 dodge durango that has the exact same issue as described in nhtsa campaign number: 09v003000. chrysler recall h45. when filling the tank, gas spits back at you. gasoline hits your pants, shoes, and all over the gas station pavement. this happens everytime you fill the tank. the workaround is not fill the tank all the way but that is a hit or miss issue. i call chrysler and they said they don't see this issue with my 2nd durango. i'd typically accept it but seeing how both my durangos had the exact same issue it is a little bit hard to swallow. this vehicle has had the issue for at least a year and i am ready for chrysler to fix it before there is a fire or other epa issue. thanks *tr

I was driving in my apartment complex and as i slowed down to turn my truck just shut off. steering wheel locks and i am not able to turn. i have to press hard on the brake for it to stop and i can then put it into park and turn the key to turn it back on. i have two small children of the age of 1 & 2. having them in the car with me when this happens is nerve wrecking. it's happened at least once or twice every 2-3 weeks. i have asked mechanics in regards to this and have had it checked and no one can tell me what it is. the previous owner said that it did the same not all the time but when he took it to the dodge dealer, they couldn't tell him what it was either. my last (most recent) incident was on 5/10/14 - the car shut off four times that day. 2 happened while i was stopped at a red light, one happened as i was slowing down to park and one happened while i was turning and the car shut off in the middle of the turning lane while my family was in the car with me. the other issue i have is with my fuel tank. i can't fill my tank because when i do ... it spits out gas. also, i've had to switch out my il pressure switch twice since february 2014. i have no idea as to why it's doing that. *tr

During march 2014, i was driving my 2005 dodge durango on the highway. at approximately 50 mph, the engine shut off while in drive. i had no control of the vehicle. the steering wheel locked. i put the gear shift into neutral and turned the ignition switch back on. i was able to restart the vehicle. this was the third incident. prior to this third incident, i took the vehicle to two separate dealers and they could not find the problem. they told me that they could not diagnose the problem. *js

Between the end of november 2013 and the middle of december 2013, i was driving on the highway and had to slow down as i approached the toll booth. as i slowed down to approximately 35 mph, the engine shut down and the steering wheel locked. i had no control of the vehicle. i put the gear shift into neutral as i rolled along and turned on the ignition to restart the engine. this was the second time this incident occurred within 2-3 weeks. *js

During november 2013, i drove my vehicle approximately 3 miles from my house to my friends house. i slowed down to approximately 10 miles per hour as i approached my friend's house and the engine shut down with the gear shift in drive. the steering wheel locked. i had no control of the vehicle. i put the gear shift in neutral and turned on the ignition to get the engine started again. *js

I have a 2005 dodge durango 4x4 that is suddenly kicking in on its own, vehicle parked key out still clicking and turning on and off. so the service 4 wheel drive came on as i was driving, then the vehicle switched in to 4 wheel drive and stuck. we towed this vehicle home then took to the transmission shop where are vehicle still sits 5 days later, can not find the issue, also when you click the alarm unlock and lock you can hear the transfer case engaging and disengaging, we have read lots of peoples reports of their vehicle doing the same thing on years 2004 & 2005 with the hemi motor, please if anyone finds out what is going on with theirs or if find any other suggestions then please write a post about it,, i think our next step is to go to dodge and make them take this pos back.... or fix.... *tr

I was driving on 65 hwy north in missouri and for no apparent reason the durango stalled and i lost all power mechanical and electrical i could not steer or brake it was all i could do to maintain my lane i had just recently had an oil change and still had about 1000 more miles before i needed a new change it was a scary experience i could not restart the vehicle in neutral i finally got pulled over to the side of the road and got it restarted had to drive back home under 25 miles per hour or it would stall again it was very unsafe and endangered me my wife and my 3 children. *tr

Purchased 2005 dodge durango in december 2005 brand new. had several issues with gas overflowing when filling up vehicle. my vehicle was part of the recall and problem was fixed, but damage was already starting to affect paint on the vehicle right below where you fill the gas tank. the rust just started being more visible than it had been over the last several months. it seems like when it rains the rust is getting worse. since this problem started occurring, i have noticed several dodge durango vehicles with this same problem. it seems like it should have been a recall to fix the paint on the driver side right below where you fill the gas tank, since the overflowing has caused this problem. it is the only spot on the vehicle rusting. *tr

The four wheel drive will engage and disengage with engine off and key out and will also engage while driving. *tr

Just purchased my 2005 durango 5.7 hemi limited used at the end of 2013. have had it for less than 6 months. after having it for a month the check engine light came on. the next day my durango stalled while i was driving at around 40-45 miles an hour in downtown san diego!! i put it in neutral and it started right back up. i thought it was just bad gas because the check engine light went off. but in the last few weeks it has done the same thing about 10 times. my friend hooked it up to his code reader and it said my egr valve needs replaced. but now i'm seeing all of these complaints on here about the same issues and i'm quite worried. i am also having a problem with the fuel tank. i can't fill up my tank or the gasoline shoots out everywhere!! i noticed there is no metal piece that closes off when you pull the nozzle out. also my in dash navigational system/cd player/radio quit working. screen on in dash console is just lines. now my blue tooth in the rear view mirror only works intermittently. have to close the rear hatch twice for cargo light warning on dash to go out. charger port in front panel stopped working on the second day i owned it. seems as if there are some major electrical issues here!! i owned a dodge dakota years ago and never had any problems with it!! i'm really surprised at the fact that dodge is not taking care of these issues. i will be contacting a dealer for the recall issues and will let you know how that goes, especially since i've read more than one complaint on here that the dealerships aren't honoring the recalls. ridiculous!! *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph, the engine stalled without warning. the vehicle was restarted and resumed normally. the failure recurred five times. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for diagnosis however, a trouble code was not detected and the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the problem. the approximate failure mileage was 142,000.

I have owned my 05 durango since 07. my durango has stalled now 4 times in 6 months. once in a hospital parking lot going very slow. next time while backing out of my driveway. about a month ago i turned into my neighborhood and made a slow left turn onto my street. it lost power halfway into the turn. no rpm's no speedo. no power steering no power brakes. i man handled the turn, flipped it in neutral. turned the key off then on and i had my speedo back, and i continued to start it back up. i thought ok that was crazy weird. no check engine lights, no codes. i thought it was bad gas or fuel system clogged. i have since cleaned all they up and serviced the fuel system. then yesterday it happened again in the same exact location doing the same exact low speed maneuver. this time i had my kids in the truck. what if i pulled across traffic to turn with no power and stalls. what if my wife was driving? i'm not sure she could remedy a situation like this. *tr

I was on my home from work going about 40mph. i got to a redlight before i stopped the suv jerked. and when i press the gas peddle to go , the suv would not move. i then tried to put it in another gear it was on but it still would not move. the police officer that pushed it out of the street said that it was the transmission. also you can just be driving the suv would just stop. this is very dangerous, and can cause accidents. on one occasion i had to nearly run off of the road to keep from having and accident. i think that chrysler llc should replace my 2005 dodge durango. being that i'm a single grandparent and now i have no transportation. so i can't get to work to provide for my granddaughter. *tr

I was driving my 2005 dodge durango home on the freeway going 55 mph getting off on the off ramp the transfer case shifted into 4 low which in turn locked my wheels up (top speed in 4 low is about 30 mph), this nearly caused me to roll the vehicle. when i got off the off ramp the service 4x4 light was on then went off, went 2 more blocks came back on and shifted into 4 hi. the transfer case does shift on its own even while i am not in the vehicle with my key in my hand. i have read more complaints about this transfer case issue than i can count, it is not only the 2005 models doing this it has been happening well into the first generation durango. something has to be done about this before some one is seriously injured or killed. i was lucky this time i am afraid to take my wife and kids with me any where in it due to this problem. please do something about this before some one is injured or killed. *tr

I was driving in a straight line when it started to down pour. i turn the wipers on high and the drivers side wiper stopped moving and got tangled with the passenger side wiper which remained functional. dealer informs me over the phone that the repair will be between $450 to $500. *tr

Vehicle switches in & out of 4wd on its own while driving, or puts itself into neutral on the 4wd, also hear something engaging when unlocking doors with remote when parked or remote won't work at all to unlock doors. mechanic found lots of other mechanics working on same issue on a forum he subscribes too and i found tons of durango & some pickup owners complaining of and trying to get the same issue fixed. i have had several other minor electrical issues in my durango for the past two years so i am convinced this is an electrical issue. *tr

On 3/19/2014 i was driving in the middle lane of a very busy street called gratiot ave with heavy traffic and the engine just stopped. i could not accelerate and had just enough speed to slowly merge right and turn into a shopping mall off the street in order to miss oncoming traffic. my truck had completely stalled. *tr

Driving down the highway and the 4x4 engages without warning. the vehicle begins to jump every 1/4 mile or so, slowed speeds to 25, continued to jump until i pulled to a complete stop and parked. problem continued to occur every time i drove even if i never went any faster than 25mph. i took the vehicle to where i had a warranty and after them keeping my durango for over a month and a half they said there were metal shavings in compartment for the transfer case and the transfer case was replaced under the warranty, however there is a transfer case shift motor that is not covered because they say it is outside of the transfer case. they said even if i pay the hundreds of dollars to replace this part, the problem will continue to happen. i want the problem fixed and i would like to be reimbursed because i've seen thousands of people complaining of this problem all over the internet. i refuse to pay for something dodge should be responsible for because it is a defect of their vehicle. *tr

2 problems: 1) even though our local dealership is insistent that we don't have a recall, i can see a recall on your page about windshield wiper motors. our wipers come on every time we start the vehicle, and they work sporadically. sometimes while they're on, they won't come on at all, as mentioned in the recall information. why isn't mine covered? 2) biggest problem: several times (upwards of ten times) i have been going slow, usually making a turn, and my engine stalls. i have to turn the key off and then restart, and i'm okay again. took it to a mechanic in the last part of july/first part of august last year, and he replaced the fuel pump. it didn't occur again until december, while we were on vacation- we were slowly going up a hill and it stalled. had to turn the key off and then re-start it. it hadn't done it again until a couple days ago. it did it three times in one day, then has been doing it each day since. i'm really afraid that the durango is going to die in the middle of traffic and i'll get hit. i have four young kids, and i am panicked thinking about having to drive it with them inside, because i'm afraid that we're going to get hit and hurt. it's so scary that i'm tempted to trade it in- though i can't really afford it, we just bought this thing used last year. i'm wondering if it did this for the previous owners as well. there are complaints all over the internet about this same problem, but no fix for it. even if i could get a mechanic to tell me what it is and fix it, i'd do that, but nobody seems to know what the answer is. it's obviously a huge safety issue!! please help!! *tr

When refueling vehicle, fuel gushes out of fuel filler tube violently. this occurs no matter what speed fuel is pumped into tank. i see that 2 recalls affect this condition in this model year vehicle but the recalls seem to affect only a portion of vehicles for this model year. my vehicle appears to have been manufactured in april 2005. this appears to place it between the 2 groups of vehicles covered by the recall. i went to a chrysler dealer on 3-5-14 and was told that my vehicle is not covered by the recall. why aren't all vehicles affected with this problem covered. seems to be very unsafe to have a large quantity of gasoline ejected from the filler each time it is fueled. the incident date i indicated above is the date i purchased the vehicle. i have no knowledge of problems the previous owner encountered, it was owned from new by a local police department. *tr

I am having an issue with the fuel tank when i am filling up the truck, when fueling, the pump handle will click off and then fuel will shoot out of the fuel tank all over the place. i have never seen or experienced this issue ever before and it is quite alarming when you gas up and end up covered in gasoline not to mention the fact i am spilling gasoline all over at the pump, i feel this is a liability because of fuel spills and the fact it could potentially start a fire. i have seen several recalls on this issue and also several reviews as to chrysler/dodge not helping to repair the problem, this is why i was told to start here with a formal complaint. *tr

I wanted to share with you my recent experience at my local dodge dealer, spartanburg chrysler dodge jeep first, i will never go to spartanburg dodge again, for anything. they tried to charge me to correct a nhtsa recall (instrument cluster fire hazard), which they did complete. my cluster still tells me there are problems with 2 systems my vehicle does not have installed. regarding the 2nd recall i had them address (fuel tank replacement). i brought me vehicle in with nearly a half tank of gas, when i picked it up it had approximately 1/2 gal. my on board computer told me i had 0 miles to empty. i was told they had no way to transfer the fuel from the old tank to the new, which is bs. they have to get the fuel out of the tank as it is against the law to dispose of the fuel, i suspect someone got a free fill up. in addition, i had the dealer had my vehicle for 4 days and still have not resolved the recall. when i came to pick my vehicle up the second time, they tried to charge me over $100 dollars for a "diagnostic fee" for rechecking the recall on the cluster, but i later found out they didn't do anything at all to the cluster the second time. when i told them i would not pay for the recall to be fixed they threatened to keep my vehicle, upon calling the sheriff's office to retrieve my property they changed their mind. they brought me the keys to my vehicle and pointed me in the direction of it. when i found it, the battery was dead from a light left on, no one came to help me get the vehicle started. i had to call my wife to come and give me a jump start. i would like to have this instrument cluster replaced as it should have been the first time per the recall.

At various times for no particular reason, the vehicle switches in and out of 4-wheel high and low. the issue began with it off, there was a audible mechanical shifting coming from what appeared to be the transfer case. after that the issue began getting worse and worse, several mechanics have looked at it and were unable to identify what the issue was. recently, the vehicle has begun shifting into neutral at 45 mph+, at that point a loud metal grinding sound begins and does not stop until the vehicle is slowed to < 25 mph when the vehicle slams into gear, which is usually 4 wheel low. the vehicle will no longer shift into any chosen mode, it chooses its own mode at random. at times if the vehicle is stuck in 4 wheel low putting it into neutral and then into reverse can help to switch the vehicle back into awd or at lease 4 wheel high. *tr

Beginning friday, january 31, 2014 in the evening the dome lights of my durango would not turn off after the normal delay. we tried several things to shut them off but they stayed on. the car started fine saturday, february 1, 2014 in the morning and i took it to run errands. i noticed again though the lights stayed on. that evening we parked the car as normal in the garage. at about 3:30 am sunday, february 2, 2014 we were awakened by smoke in the house. we found the heaviest smoke in the room connected to the garage. we got our children and pets out of the house and called the fire department. when they arrived the durango was on fire. the entire interior burned. there was substantial damage to our garage and some damage to the interior adjoining room. the fire inspector told us that the fire originated in the interior headlining of the durango. starting at the front by the windshield and then moving to the back of the vehicle. the fire department put the fire out and the vehicle was towed to a body shop. *tr

First sign of problem, when pulling into driveway or parking spot doing either a left or right hand turn, my 2005 dodge durango would not turn even after applying more gas than usual, my truck actually stopped as if the brakes were engaged. then, while driving i noticed my 4lo light coming on intermittently, also when i either lock or unlock my truck with the remote i hear a clicking sound underneath the truck like something is engaging. you can also hear this switch sound under the car even when the car is off. seems like the transfer case motor is switching on its own regardless of the vehicle being on or off. also some sort of electrical problems when it rains... *tr

Engine stall without warning. lost control of the steering and brake very hard to apply. *tr

Just got my durango on 1-14-2013 coming home and the engine light came on and it just cut off coming down a busy highway when it cut off there is no power stalls hard to get off the road the cars behind me don't know what gone on just in front of them so they don't know to stop. when i got this durango no one told me about this .. *tr

When fueling up my vehicle at the end of the pumping procedure, gas shoots out of tank and depending on pressure it can reach my forehead. *tr

My 2005 dodge durango 5.7 hemi has had a vast amount of stalling. i was going to pick my son up and the throttle light and the engine light came on. the throttle light was blinking. i would just be driving and it would die. this is a serious matter and if dodge is not made accountable someone could be hurt. i had my durango towed to a dodge dealer and was told it was the egr valve. so i had that replaced along with new spark plugs and wires. it was fine for a week then it did the exact same thing on a very busy road. it would start then die. so i had it towed a seond time to the dodge dealer. this time i was told it had pulled 12 codes but they were not active but just stored codes. the dealer could not diagnose my durango. i was told they also checked the wiring and could not find anything. so i payed for the diagnostic and was told it never acted up on the mechanic. so again a week later it did the same thing and so we replaced the electronic throttle control. it ran ok for a week and now it is doing the exact same thing. it stalled on the interstate and my husband was nearly hit. can someone please look into this with dodge before someone gets hurt. the dealer cannot find what is wrong with my truck .please someone help figure this out i saw all of the complaints on line for this exact same problem.and also with mine this happened on more than one occasion.

I have a 2005 dodge durango 4x4 that is suddenly kicking in on its own, vehicle parked key out still clicking and turning on and off. this happens enough some nights that in the morning the battery is dead. i read the forums and thousands of people are saying the same thing and no real answer. many complaints filed to chrysler with no answer. kicks into 4 wheel drive while in motion at 65 mph on the highway. *tr

2005 durango has been stalling at various times for the past 3 weeks. the whole car turns off. lights....everything. mechanic, transmission specialist and chrysler dealership have no idea why. it has only happened at low speeds either going in reverse or going forward. it usually happens when you start driving the car but it has happened after driving it for a little while. it can also go for days without happening. the only code is a the number 6 cylinder misfire but everyone agrees that one cylinder misfiring would not result in the car going dead. the throttle body has been serviced and software has been updated and it continues to stall. we have spent $600 on repairs and car rentals and i still have no car. chrysler dealer has had the car for almost two weeks.

Has occurred multiple times. initially my 05 durango would stall when pulling into parking spaces. has progressed to normal driving conditions at around 35 mph while turning the engine will shut off. occasionally the rpms will jump up and down too. engine idles around 500rpm. when this first occurred there were no warning lights illuminated. i just dont feel like this is a safe vehicle at this point in time and based off of the other reports, dodge should investigate and repair at no cost.

While cruising a back road near home the durango suddenly shut off leaving me no lower steering or brakes. it was terrifying. i was lucky to be only going approximately 25 mph as i was just cresting a hill. i was able to have enough momentum to guide the truck onto a side street. it restarted immediately upon putting it in park again. and i was able to drive it to my parents house without incident and then again back to my house later in the day. there was no warning lights that lit on the dash and no other indication that there was a. malfunction. the rpms were smooth, no rough engine. terrified to drive this truck now. *tr

During fill-ups with gas, fuel spills out. there have been multiple recalls on the issue, but the dealer says our vin is not covered even though it falls within the dates of manufacture that the recall states.

The truck even when unlocking the doors or driving will engage into 4 wheel dr without activating anything many internet post have stated this problem i guess dodge won't do anything until something happens and they get sued. *tr

2005 durango 4.7 v8 hemi my vehicle randomly shuts down on its own, locking the steering column, when slowing down and turning at the same time as when coasting into a parking space or coming to a stop. also, on some of these occasions, all interior electrical components seem to go out, inst panel, radio, fan/blower, etc. brought in multiple times for inspection, they say they find nothing. in last 6 months, 4wd light blinks as if its changing from awd to 4wd on its own, sometimes can hear it engaging under car when using key fob locking or unlocking, and when turning into a parking spot it feels like it changed to 4lo as its almost skipping/hopping like trying to take a turn with 4wd and rpms go way up like i'm in a low gear. many, many of the same complaints on dodge forums with many people just throwing money at it and having multiple things replaced etc, just to find out its not fixed. needs to be recalled soon. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. the contact mentioned the failure recurred intermittently. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer for a diagnostic. the manufacturer was not notified manufacturer of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 66,000 and the current mileage was 106,000.

Was driving down the road and the 4x4 engaged without the switch being touched. it has done this numerous times now even when it is parked in the driveway and the vehicle is off. i can here it engaging into 4 wheel drive. even when you hit the unlock button on the key you can hear the transfer case engage into 4 wheel drive. when this happens as you are driving down the down road it makes it very difficult to turn. i have read many other complaints on here for the same issue. this is going to end up causing an accident as it can shift into 4lo while going down the road. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that after refueling, fuel would spray out of the filler neck regardless of the fuel level capacity. the contact referenced nhtsa campaign id number 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline) and stated that the vehicle was included in the recall however, the part needed to complete the recall service was unavailable. the manufacturer was notified and they were unable to provide an expected date for the remedy part to become available. the approximate failure mileage was 220,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while refueling, gasoline spewed from the filler neck without warning. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where the vehicle was inspected but not repaired. the contact was advised that the fuel tank would need replacing. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vehicle was not listed under nhtsa campaign number: 09v003000 (fuel system, gasoline). the approximate failure mileage was 100,000.

I have seen lots of complaints about this same issue online as well as 2 open and closed investigations on this website! while driving my 2005 dodge durango it will shut off on its own, steering is impossible at this point. it use to happen a lot to me. normally it would always happen pulling in or backing out of my driveway. but i live in rural wv and we have mountains and curvy roads. once i was driving about 30-35 mph and i was on a curvy road and it stalled out on me and i about went over the mountain as i could not steer! we had the vehicle checked over and there was no warning our check engine light on. ultimately have the mechanic played the guessing game, he replaced the egr valve and that had fixed the problem. just recently it is beginning to happen again. this investigation needs to be reopened! manufacturer should be responsible. my durango has 3 very common issues with lots of other folks that should be recalled: 1. the stalling of the vehicle for no apparent reason. 2. the fuel leaking out as you are filling it was gas! they say my car is not part of the recall and will not pay to fix it. 3. 4 lock kicks in on its own as you are driving. this is very dangerous! they need to investigate and solve the problem and recall. i love my durango and i have had it for 6 years as i bought it used and i am the second owner. i would love for dodge to make this right. as i do not want to get another vehicle. *tr

Whenever i fill up my gas tank gas pours out. i try to listen real close so it doesn't happen and then sometimes even as i am taking the pump out a bunch of gas will come back out of it. this has been going on for a very long time. i even had a gas attendant try to tell me i would have to pay for the clean up. i seen were there was a recall on this and i called the manufacturer and they told me my vehicle was not part of the recall. evidently there are other 05 dodge durangos having the same problem. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated while driving approximately 10 mph, the engine stalled without warning. the vehicle resumed normally when restarted but the failure recurred five times. on a separate occasion, the transmission shifted into fwd independently while traveling between 35-40 mph. the vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the problem. the failure mileage was 110,000. the vin was unavailable.

I was pulling into a parking space and the car started skipping and jumping, vehicle was hard to steer and it also hesitated to go, turning was very difficult. the 4 lock light was flashing on all by itself and the knob has been on awd i only rarely switch the vehicle to 4 lock in the winter time. this makes about a dozen times it has happened to this vehicle. twice in one day is very scary. i am very afraid of what might happen if i am going a higher speed at the time it decides to mess up. i have talked to a mechanic and he has never heard of the issue but says it could be very dangerous if it would happen while driving a higher rate of speed. i have search on line by typing '05 dodge durango 4 lock by itself' and there are a lot of people having the same issue. also with no luck figuring the problem, one person had replaced the transfer case 3 times and it was only a temporary fix. *tr

2005 dodge durango 5.7 hemi. while driving down the road the service 4wd warning light started blinking and the 4wd started to activate on its own. as the vehicle sits when activating the door locks with the remote the 4wd actuates on its own. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while driving 10 mph, the four wheel drive system engaged independently and caused the steering wheel to become difficult to turn. the contact restarted the vehicle and it functioned properly until the following day. the contact was not taken to the dealer for inspection. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 112,000.

2005 dodge durango 5.7 hemi stalls upon acceleration. during acceleration in the forward direction the vehicle will lose all electrical function and shut down the engine causing the motorist to be stranded in the middle of an intersection or other dangerous section of roadway. loss of electrical function can be attributed to the close proximity of the positive battery cable to the egr pipe on the right side of the engine. during acceleration the engine will torque over causing the egr pipe to make contact with the battery cable thus causing the plastic sheathing to become chafed. over time this chafing will wear through the plastic sheathing and expose the bare copper wire allowing it to come in contact with the metal egr pipe. the contact of the copper wire from the positive battery cable to the metal egr pipe creates a direct short which in turn shuts down the electrical system and any engine control functions. in some instances this short can cause the battery cable to heat up enough to catch the plastic insulation on fire and possibly lead to battery explosion.

Every time it rains the car rides rough. it's scary. we own 2 of these and found out that this isn't being addressed by dodge. totally disappointed in lack of consideration by the dodge corp. *jb

I was driving home from shopping with my husband and when i turned the rear end, it jerked and almost made me wreck. i had to pull over at tim horton's and the vehicle finally corrected itself and everything was okay. it happened again last night, as i was leaving from goodwill and as i was turning out of my parking spot it did it again, but this time worse if someone was in front of me i would have hit them without my control. as i was turning onto my narrow bridge last night it did it again and i almost wrecked into the bridge and into my creek, i then decided that it was dangerous and wasn't going to drive this vehicle until it gets fixed. *jb

While operating the vehicle the service 4wd light came on. at some point after that the transfer case shifted into 4hi lock.i scanned the obdii and had no codes present. also scanned the 4wd selector switch and it showed the switch was operational, but the transfer case shift motor was not shifting. dropped the vehicle off at an independent transmission shop one week later and it sat for a few hours and when they went to road test it no warning lights and it was now in awd. again the repair shop did an obd scan and came up with no codes.if these vehicles were to shift into four wheel drive (low or high range ) at highway speeds of 65 mph i feel major driveline damage and or failure will result,which could lead to serious injury or death. *tr

When filling the tank with gasoline, the pump handle will shut down but gas spews from the filler opening on the vehicle. there is an existing recall for this problem issued in 2009; however, my particular vin is not covered under that recall even though i am having the exact same problem. perhaps a fire causing injuries is necessary to have this problem covered by chrysler. *tr

I have a transmission problem that can't be defined or pin-pointed. it has occurred over the last year numerous times. no one can seem to fix. the transmission drops out into neutral at high speeds or drops into 4wd low at moderate speeds, lately the transfer case will make noise when i unlock the truck and when i go to start it the transmission grinds and drops into 4wd low!!! if it wasn't for my awareness of the sounds of the truck and ready to make a safe maneuver, there could have been a serious crash. this is a common problem with these trucks! look on the internet. it happens randomly and without warning. no mechanic can fix it yet! they say change the transfer case out $2000, but it doesn't always fix it... this is a severe hazard and i will not let anyone drive my truck but me.. i found if you shut down the car and put it in neutral and push the towing neutral button it sometimes kicks it back in to the right setting. you will see it scroll through 4wd low .. 4wd high and service 4wd on the dash. then go to normal.. this is a very serious defect!!! the feds need to go after dodge to find the issue and issue a recall!!!! i will sue dodge for everything if any accident occurs from this. i should sue them now just for my expense, loss of work time and anxiety!!!! they need to take responsibility for this and stop "looking the other way"! please someone at the federal level needs to take the lead and force dodge to do what's right! *tr

When vehicle is off, switching noise from the transfer case switching motor on the awd dodge durango moving on its own from awd to 4lock to 4lo occurs. src 4wd light may come on but then clears when engine is turned off. the switching is not controlled by the normal operational control that would be done by drive. i am concerned about shorting wiring in vehicle causing a fire due to shorting. when unlocking the doors with the key flob, the switching action may start which should not be related to the changing of awd, 4lock & 4lo. *tr

Every time i fill up the vehicle with fuel it sprays gasoline out all over the side of the vehicle as well as whoever is fueling it. several like model durangos from this year and close to the same year have had recalls to fix this issue. im not at all sure why my vin does not qualify for the recall but it needs to because the problem is obvious and was definitely a manufacturer error. please consider this request and take care of the issue. *tr

When you are filling up the gas tank and the nozzle shuts off when it's full. the tank or check valve doesn't close and a lot of gasoline flows back out onto the side of the durango and on the ground. this could potentially be very dangerous. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that after refueling, the instrument panel erroneously displayed that the fuel tank was full.the vehicle was towed to a private mechanic where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump module needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 05v034000 (fuel system, gasoline). the vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred on three occasions. the approximate failure mileage was 140,000 and the current mileage was 202,000. *tr

The first time it happened, the transfer case went into neutral, on it's own, while driving on a divided highway, with no shoulder. it kind of created a traffic jam. long story short. a friend towed me home. i reset the transfer case per the instruction manual, and it went back into gear. still do not know why it went into neutral in the first place. now, when you open the doors, the transfer case motor operates like crazy, for up to 30 seconds, and some times longer. i got on line and have found out that is a problem experienced by many durango awd owners. i bought it used and the previous owners claimed that it never did it before. also, when filling the tank up, the filler neck will "purge" fuel out onto the ground and your feet. this is listed as a dealer recall, and mine was looks to have been done, but the problem is still there. *tr

When you fill the tank up with gas and the nozzle shuts off a lot of gasoline spills out of the tank onto the durango and on the ground. i'm the second owner. the first owner warned me of this before hand. he said it has always done this and never did anything about it. i called chrysler and they said "my vin number is not covered under the recall." the recall was for the check valve. they also said "bring it in to a dealer and have them look at it." i asked if they would fix it at their cost. they said "there is no guaranty." this is a potentially very dangerous issue that chrysler should be responsible for. *tr

Upon filling up at the gas station, when the pump shut off, there was an overflow from the gas tank. about the same time, i had to replace the tires and was told the car needed to have the ball joints replaced and there was a recall out for the job. however, i was told my vin number did not qualify. updated 05/08/14

4wd engages without switch being thrown. 4wd engages and disengages at will. so far just annoying, but could cause crash if it engages on turn at medium speed. *tr

The vehicle bucked, as if misfiring. it occurs frequently since that time. it also has a starting issue. sporadic non-response when attempting to start. *tr

The vehicle has been stalling without warning on common basis. no engine lights illuminated. *tr

My vehicle had the engine light come on (mil), and was inspected for mass state inspection. it failed due to emissions. the engine light indicated a evap leak. the vehicle was brought in to a local service station for the issue, and i was advised the fuel pump needed replacement and that the top was corroded (plastic). the service shop thought it was odd as the vehicle was maintained properly, low mileage, and never saw the plastic just crumble like this. they held onto the original chrysler fuel pump for a while and then discarded it. once repair completed, the vehicle started to buck (pulling). it was brought back to service shop, and no code was available, but was told computer needed to catch up as it was cleared at time of repair due to the battery being disconnected. a week passed vehicle still bucking. brought to dealer, kelly chrysler jeep and they could not duplicate issue and inspected new fuel pump replacement for faulty workmanship and found nothing. drove truck, and still bucking. brought to another local service station, and they replaced two sensors, crank shaft, and egr. bucking stopped, but engine light came back on. inspected again, and states evap leak. local service does not have smoke machine, so truck went to the dealer, kelly chrysler and for recall on inlet valve. upon inspection, top of whole fuel tank corroded as well as the fuel pump again. fire hazard! problems all connected to fuel system. the inlet valve caused the fuel to spill over and under the rear left of the truck causing corrosion to the paint, and the top of the tank and fuel pump. this is the 2nd fuel pump in 2 years??? it took chrysler 8 years to advise me of the recall for the inlet valve and now there is all this ensuing damage as a result besides the fire hazard and the fumes that rose up in the truck body. chrysler should be responsible for the damages! *tr

We were filling the fuel tank at a gas station, after the tank was filled it sprayed fuel on my wife. i have investigated this issue online and found this recall. i will also contact dodge ,but i also have read a few instances where they are resistant to this safety issue so i decided to also report it here. *tr

When i was turning into my neighborhood going about 5 to 10 mph, the vehicle power steering just shut down on me. i had to coast it over to the side and turn off engine and restart. thankfully, there was no other cars on the road at the time. this is the 3rd time this has happened to me. i took it to the dealership 2 years ago and they could not duplicate the problem so they just fixed something with the electrical computer system and sent me on my way. a few hundred dollars later. this is extremely dangerous as it gives the driver no warning at all. has always happened at low speeds or decelerating. *tr

Fuel filler neck does not shut off, resulting in a backflow of fuel out of the neck when the fuel tank nears full. slowly adding fuel when the fuel tank is near full does not prevent fuel backflow. *tr

I was reversing out of my garage, stopped and shifted into park to pull up a little and then was going to reverse again. while shifting into drive the car stuttered three times and accelerated forward at full speed crashing into my house and going right through my bathroom and laundry room. my daughter said she heard the screeching tires from inside the house. my friend and i were both injured in the incident as well as now having to repair my house. *tr

Date investigation opened: nov 02, 2005 date investigation closed: aug 29, 2007 nhtsa action number: ea05018 component(s): power train all products associated with this investigation details 26 associated documents manufacturer: chrysler group llc summary: analysis of the complaint, field report and warranty data shows that the majority of stalling incidents in the subject vehicles appear to be related to the engine calibration concerns that daimlerchrysler addressed with service bulletins releasing revised pcm software. analysis of the complaints and odi's survey of owners of vehicles that received engine management software updates under tsb #18-013-05 show that these stalling incidents have the following characteristics: - they occur at low speeds, often during parking lot or driveway maneuvers; - they occur during decelerations, such as braking for a stop sign or traffic signal; and - the operator is almost always able to immediately restart the vehicle. when compared with other safety defect investigations and recalls of conditions that result in stalling during low-speed deceleration with immediate engine restart possible, the failure rate in the subject vehicles is low. analyses of complaint and warranty data also show a declining trend. accordingly, this investigation is closed. the closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that a safety-related defect does not exist. the agency will continue to monitor complaints and other information relating to the alleged defect in the subject vehicles and take further action in the future if warranted. see document file for additional information regarding this resume. *tr

Same issue as reported below: date investigation opened: nov 18, 2010 date investigation closed: open nhtsa action number: aq10001 component(s): unknown or other all products associated with this investigation details 43 associated documents manufacturer: chrysler group llc , ford motor company , general motors llc summary: the agency, particularly in recent months, has been informed of incidents involving allegations of personal injury and death claimed to have been caused by safety defects and failures to conform to minimum federal motor vehicle safety standards (fmvss) on rental car vehicles for which a safety recall to remedy the safety defect or noncompliance had allegedly not been performed prior to the rental car company's lease of the vehicle. nhtsa understands that there is presently a petition before the federal trade commission (ftc) seeking to prohibit at least one rental car company from renting vehicles on which safety recall campaign remedies remain outstanding. the purpose of this audit query (aq) is to investigate recall remedy completion by rental car companies on the above-listed safety recall campaigns. these campaigns were chosen due to their inclusion of vehicles used in the rental market. this information is expected to provide the agency an indication of how completely and how quickly rental car fleets, in general or individually, perform necessary recall-related repairs or other remedies on the vehicles owned and then leased for use on the roadways. this aq is opened. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge durango. the contact stated that while driving approximately 30 mph, the vehicle stalled and the check engine warning light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to a private mechanic where it was diagnosed that the cam shaft sensor and the egr valve needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. the approximate failure mileage was 120,000 and the current mileage was 133,000. *tr

Vehicle stalls during at low speeds, often during parking lot or driveway maneuvers; - they occur during decelerations, such as braking for a stop sign or traffic signal. happens multiple times without warning which has led to near accidents. extremely dangerous. surprised that there have been two investigations that have both been closed. there needs to be a recall asap. *tr

Each time i fill the vehicle with fuel it spits back up through the filler tube and all over the side of the vehicle. the pump then shuts off. i have notified two fuel stations of this at the time i filled the vehicle thinking it might be a pump problem, but i researched and many vehicles of this model have reported this to be a problem. there is a strong odor of fuel in and around the vehicle at the time of fill up and there after. active recalls do not appear to cover my vehicle, but the problem is there and obviously needs to be repaired. my dealership has been contacted. *tr

My 2005 dodge durango had the completed recall h45 worked done on 4/27/2009. the dodge dealership replaced the gas tank per the h45 recall. the dodge dealership considers the matter closed but the issue has now occurred with this new installed tank. the vehicle had 28,994 miles when this work was done. now the vehicle has 68,000 miles on it and the same issue occurs while filling the gas tank up. upon shut off of the gas pump, fuel will spit up out of the inlet fuel tube and leave fuel on the side of my suv and leave a puddle of fuel below the car. i wanted to report this issue asap due to the fact that recall h45 was completed on this vehicle but problem is occuring again. under the recall h45 the dealer will replace the fuel tank, but what about the inlet fuel check valve? was the tank inlet check valve replaced when the fuel tank was replaced? was the fuel tank replaced on my suv a newer unit that passed all safety checks or did i get an older unit that still had the issues with the inlet check valve failing? this issues needs further investigation to meet the safety recall h45 completed work done by the dealer and to help others that may have the same issue occuring once again with there durangos under this recall. *tr

Started durango and let it warm up at idle for 3 mins. started to hear a squeak then a slight tapping and now sounds like loose metal in the engine. oil changed every 3-4k miles. had oil changed today and now worse. *tr

When filling the tank, the pump shuts off and gasoline continues to spill out. this has happened on numerous occasions and we have to avoid topping off the tank in order to avoid the spill. when doing some research, we found that there was a recall in 2009 for the fuel system/gasoline storage tank assembly. today (4/8/13), we contacted and spoke to our dodge/chrysler dealer and they stated that there was indeed a recall in 2009 and apparently our vehicle vin was not covered under the recall and that there were no extensions. we are just in awe, that a potential fire hazard and something this dangerous would not continue have an extension under the recall. had we known there was a recall, we would have had the situation addressed sooner. *tr

While in awd the vehicle switches to 4 lo by itself. this makes it hard to make turns, forward and reverse. the 4 lo light blinks and service 4 wd lights stays on. i do not manually switch out of awd, as 4 wd is not needed. however, as i stated before, it switches on its own. on the date of the incident, the vehicle would not return to awd from 4 lo. i was told to unhook the battery terminals and after i replace them back to the posts, it would reset the awd. this did not work. my children and i were stuck on the side of the road until help arrived. i have researched this topic and read complaints from others with the same problems with the same vehicle. many of them saying after paying out large amounts for parts and repairs the problem is still occurring. many are not even sure where to start as far as repairs go. i would like some definate answers and diamlerchrysler to be held accountable. thank you. *tr

Transfer case tries to shift into 4lo at random (yellow 4lo light on dash flashes & can feel it trying to switch) & it also tries engaging when the key isn't in the ignition. i've read that if it engages in 4lo at a high speed it could do major damage to the power train & possibly result in an accident. i've searched in google & it appears that there are quite a few people experiencing this problem. i've had the power connector to the "transmission control module" disconnected since september 2012 so i can drive but i'm unable to switch to 4lock or 4lo if needed (svc 4wd light stays on). *tr

I received a letter recently from my local dodge dealer indicating my 2005 dodge durango would require repair for something causing the fuel to spill out during fill up. this has happened to me several times in the past as i was unaware that there was a recall for this. after receiving this letter a few weeks ago i inspected the quarter panel underneath the gas tank more closely noticing bubbling of the paint with chipping starting. pressing on the paint it sounded corrosive like rust. as i began to chip some of the paint away i discovered rust and two holes that were completely through. looking through the holes i could see rust behind the body. after reviewing several car and dodge forums i see that this has happened to several people in the same area of the drive quarter panel. i can only assume there is a correlation between the fuel problem and the rust that appears to have come inside out to the body of the car. there is no other rust on this car and has been well maintained. i contacted my local dealer who informed me that the recall on the inlet valve is still valid however rust would not be. it concerns me that chrysler doesn't feel responsible for the damage caused by their defective item. how could i have know that this was happening since i just received notification i'm concerned the rust damage is more great than i can actually see. of course i'm additionally concerned with possible fire etc which is what the recall specifically indicates. i will make appointment with the dealership for repair of the fuel inlet valve.i would like chrysler to also pay for the damage that was caused by their defective part. i have 99,200 miles currently. i don't want my concerns to be dismissed as i feel i'm not the only one that this has happened to. i only received a letter recently for this problem so i feel all parts of the problem should be addressed. *tr

Vehicle stalls at low speeds and deceleration, idling hard at a stop and while in park, will stall when idling hard, gas spills out of inlet when filling up completely, sluggish in temperatures below 30 degrees and above 80 degrees, requires more than normal maintenance, service tech's can never diagnose the causes of stalling or idling issues, think it might concern the throttle body, transmission has torqued itself out before, stripped screws, rebuilt at 90000 miles. just waiting for it to go again. this vehicle has been nothing but issues ever since i bought it used. every fix just feels like a band aid to the manufacturing problems it has. *tr

The vehicle stalls while making turning maneuvers at low speeds which disables the power steering and brakes. this has occurred on numerous occasions but the dealer is unable to duplicate the problem and has not been able to correct this issue. this has always occur during decelerations, such as braking for a stop sign or traffic signal. when it happen i must immediately put the vehicle in park and restart it, but luckily this has not let to an accident yet. *tr

I purchased a used 2005 dodge durango and recently in december 2012 it started having problems when trying to put gas in it. the gas pump clicks off and the the gas starts to spew back out not only does it go on the car it actually even reaches you. there has been recalls for this year durango but i was told my vin number was not covered. since this problem i have been doing some research and have found out that over 3,000 people also have complained. i believe this is a very dangerous situation and they say it can cause a fire. i dont understand why the nhtsa would not recognize and demand there be more recalls done and honored free of charge. a life is a life and cant believe anyone would take a chance with it. *tr

This is getting ridiculous and it seems that no one is willing to take ownership for a faulty system that is obviously dangerous. what i found to be absurd is how multiple people have posted numerous complaints about the same issue, recalls have been made for the same issue and still no action. i have a 2005 dodge durango and each and every time i fill my tank the pump will stop but an excessive amount of gas will overflow. how many complaints must be entered before someone takes action or are manufacturers waiting for a catastrophic mishap to get their attention. fumes could easily get under the vehicle, and find the catalytic converter and ignite. something must be done, the time is now. take responsibility! *tr

I am the owner of a 2005 dodge durango. we are having an issue were the fuel will not shut off at the pump. there is a recall for that year, but surprisingly enough our vin # does not fall under the recall. we had the fuel tank replaced in january of 2008 under warranty for the same issue. obviously there is an issue with the tanks and their manufacturing process. concern is the tank was replaced with a defective tank that was manufactured during the recall time frame, but concerned is not being addressed because the vin # does not fall with in a certain manufacturing date. i am greatly concerned due to the recall stating that the issue can cause fire. what will it take for dodge to recognize the issue. *tr

Reason for filing a vehicle safety complaint is as follows; every time i have tried to fill-up my gas tank on my 2005 dodge durango, the gas not only starts to shoot out of the tank itself, but also all over my truck, myself and all over the floor. the security dodge dealer where the vehicle was originally purchased is insisting there is no such recall for this serious and dangerous issue. on top of that, they are suggesting that i take it in for a diagnostic evaluation and pay $ 110.00 an hour labor fee. please note i am a smoker though not proud of it. even if i weren't i can't understand why they refuse to see this as a incident/accident waiting to happen now or in the future. i would think this would be less of a cost to them, rather taking a chance with a life or lives being lost. priorities ?????? in the meantime i'll continue to have to carry lots of paper towels when getting gas. *tr

While driving on interstate from work, oil light come on. i immediately pulled over and checked the oil. the level on the dipstick was in the safe zone. i then had it towed to my mechanic that told meth the motor would need to be replaced. i never had any other problems with the durango until then. oil was always changed at 3,000 miles. the mechanic told me that there is sludge build up because of the design/angle of the ports that doesn't allow the oil to move freely. apparently is this an ongoing problem and this should be a recall for this, no one has the money to put almost $4,000 inanother engine. *tr

Recently purchased used vehicle. every time you fill up the fuel tank, when the pump automatically shuts off fuel sprays past the nozzles vapor recovery boot and out of the fuel filler neck. this is vaporized/atomized gasoline, which leads to an extreme fire hazard. i notified dodge of this situation, but they responded only by saying that there are no open recalls or campaigns regarding my vehicle. *tr

I just bought it from a private party and went to fill it up and once it was full it spewed gas all over me and the ground. i thought it was a fluke, but when i filled it up a second time, it did the same thing. i started my search on the internet, and found, there was a recall for 04, 05 , 06, and 07 durangos for this issue. i took it to the dealership, and was told my vin was not included for my 05 durango. i proceeded to go online and talk to dodge directly and got a response that they were standing behind what the dealership said. i proceeded to email them back to get it escalated with no response. i just dont know why there would be recalls all around my vehicle, and my vehicle is doing exactly what the recall said it was doing. hopefully it does not cause a fire hazard, or cause anything to the environment. all i need is to find out how to get my vin number included in the recall or who to talk to, to get it corrected. *tr

I recently purchased a used dodge durango from a used car dealer. the first time the gas station attendant filled up the gas tank, it overflowed. gasoline was all over the side of my car and onto the ground. the attendant was not touching the gas pump handle. the second time i had the car refueled at costco, it happened again. this time, it was even more of a spill and held up the refueling of other vehicles for quite some time while the attendant mopped up the spilt fuel on the side of my car and ground. i contacted my local dodge dealer and reported the problem to them. they checked my vin # with recall notices regarding this type of problem. there was a recall id # 54823 which affected 26,000 vehicles, but apparently not my vin #. i then contacted chrysler corporation. they also said that my vin # did not have a recall notice on the fuel system. recall id # 54823 states "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 searched the internet and found this is a common defect with similar makes and models manufactured by chrysler corporation. i do not feel that i should incur an expense for a safety item that has previously been well documented. please help me resolve this safety defect before someone is hurt.

I purchased a dodge durango in 2007. at the time the car had 24000 miles. around 2009 the car when i filled the tank with gas and removed the pump handle from the durango the gas would overflow all over. so in 2009 i took the car to the dodge dealership in north florida ave. they said that there was no recalls for this car. at this point the car had 29,000 miles. up to this date i still have this problem every time i fill the tank. i have taken this car to the dealership in 2010, 2011, and 2012 for the same problem and they still tell me there is no recall for this problem. so i decided to look online for this problem. there is a lot of 2005 durango with the same problem. *tr

When filling up the vehicle with gasoline the filler tube does not close and gasoline comes up and out of the tube. i was informed that numerous complaints have been issued, as well as, two recalls, but since my vehicle was manufactured in 3-2005 it is not covered. as this has the potential for injury and fire this recall should be expanded as obviously it affects more vehicles then in the past recall notices. *tr

When filling fuel tank, gas spews out of filler tube posing fire risk, damaging clothing, and adding voc's to atmosphere. many complaints of same thing and even recalls on various model years. makes very little sense why dodge or ntsb doesn't connect the dots and correct this problem in a comprehensive fashion. *tr

When filling up with gas, fuel shoots out of the tube and onto the side of the vehicle. *tr

When i fill my gas tank to full or close to full, the gas leaks or sprays back around the fuel door.

This car has stalled multiple of times, with no lights, no warning of it going to happen. this is very dangerous and i have taken it to bob boyd dealership where i bought the car 6 years ago. it now has around 80000 miles on it and in the last few months, it has started to get worse. i took it to the dealership and they told me that they cant do anything with it until the can replicate the problem. the first time i took it there, it was 1 year after i bought it, they replaced the battery as they said that was the problem. was till the year and now the problem is back again. this time more frequent. i have taken the car to them twice now and they give me the same answer, that they cant fix it till it breaks, they have to replicate the problem to make sure they can fix it, meanwhile, i have a car that's not working right and very dangerous. they had the car for two days the first time, and then took it back to them after it stalled driving it home from the dealership. the second time, they kept it for over a week, still, they say they cant fix it cause they don't know what the problem is. you can google this problem and it is wide spread across this country, other dodge products are doing the same thing and the dealerships aren't doing anything to fix it. please contact these people and give us consumers a fighting chance in getting this fixed. i will never buy another dodge product after this. thanks for reading this, and if you decide to do something about this, thank you dearly for doing so.

When i am filling up my gas tank at a gas station, the pump will kick off when full and a few seconds after you can hear fuel rushing up the tube and then sprays out all over the side of the car and on the ground. the side of my vehicle is starting to rust because of this and i have been held responsible to fuel cleanup at a few gas stations. its my understanding there was a recall issued on some vehicles but since i am not the original owner, i am not sure if this was taken care of. *tr

We were driving back into town from a family visit. we slowed down coming back into town and my vehicle stalled out when we started slowing down. we almost got rear ended by another vehicle. we tried to start it back up however my vehicle kept stalling out. i took it to three different places including the dealership where i had originally purchased the vehicle and they kept telling me there was nothing wrong with the vehicle. after over a thousand dollars at the dealers and several hundred more at the other two places to this day it still cuts out and stalls out when i am driving it. now because it is a hazard we do not drive it at all and it is parked in our back yard waiting for a miracle to happen...thank you for your time. sincerely very frustrated. *tr

Gasoline was ejected from my fill tube at the gas station. after filling the tank the gas nozzle clicked to stop and fuel shot out of the filler tube covering me and my car in gasoline. this happens everytime the car is filled. *tr i understand chrysler/dodge has recognized this problem in many vehicles but for some reason my vehicle was excluded.

When the gas tank is being filled there is no longer a shut off that occurs thus gas overflows on car, person and gas station floor. *tr

I asked the gas attendant to fill up the tank. after about half a minute or so, gas sprayed out of the tank. i would estimate half a gallon of gas or so was sprayed out onto the car and ground. at first i thought it was the gas pump nozzle. did fill ups at three different gas stations and same result. i called the dealership and the mechanic said that only the 4.7s are being recalled not the 5.7s for the gas tank's return valve malfunction which causes the spray. *tr

Multiple occassions different gas stations - when filling the gas tank and removing nozzle the gas spills out in pretty large volume. happened on last 4 occasions. other durango's same model year are seeing the same thing. not safe. *tr
