Gas fill overflow on my 06 durango
SlickDaddy96...I understand you stated the codes...I just didn't know what, exactly, the codes were for without looking them up myself. As you know, there are a lot of Oafs who troll these websites and many do not have a stinkin' clue which end is up. that is why I mentioned the gas cap possibility first. I would not have any idea that you had checked that out before your post without my reading that somewhere first. Therefore, it was not obvious to anyone just reading what you had posted that you checked out all of the obvious potential pitfalls and pratfalls before you had posted.
Just got my letter in the mail today that they have extended the warranty for the 2006-2008 Durango gas tank so i should be able to get my $200.00 back if I can find the damn receipt. Thanks for the heads up Dodgecares!

Got my fixed finally today since the dealership finally ordered the parts after giving me the run around the first trip. I filled up afterwards and fuel did not spit out. I am still skeptical because it was above 60 degrees, and usually when the temp consistently stays 60 degrees or above it never overflowed anyway. It was just the cold months when I guess the vapors didn't hit the cut-off fast enough.
I did try to pump it one more time to get to even dollar number and it immediately spilled some out, so it definitely filled it up and didn't spit out unless I forced it to.
The bad thing is my "gascap" message is still on the dash, and eventually it will once again trigger the MIL, so it look as if the replacement didn't fix that. I am getting irritated on this code. After replacing several caps and it not going off. Emissions are coming up and I need to figure out what the hell is going on.
One tidbit of info for people though. I do have some nicks in the paint around the gas opening area that were not there previously. They aren't enough to complain about, but be aware that whatever they use to replace the part may give you nicks in your paint job in that area.

Can any of you that had anything fixed to relieve the problem tell me if before fixing the DTC codes P0456 and P0457 would come up sometimes? I know they are Evap codes, and I am hoping getting the TSB parts replaced this Friday will clear those codes up to where they never show up again. I have to pass emissions this month, so I am tired of trying to reset and hope all but the evap system is back up and running then hurry to an emissions place. In our state 5 of 6 monitors have to be back up. Last year luckily after reseting the only one that was not up was Evap and it passed emissions without a DTC showing up, although it did 1-2 days later :-)
I am feel confident these codes go away after the repair, but what say you guys?

We're thinking the pump on the evap canister went bad and caused the emmisions light to trigger (replacing the gas cap made no difference). The gascap light took some starts before it cleared (after the canister was replaced). Perhaps something about the gas overflow works back into the evap canister and messes something up.
All I do know for sure is I have the TSB issue and I had the codes issue. Replacing the evap canister (cost ~$100) took care of the code issue. It goes in next week to get the gas tank issue fixed (got my letter today).
Check your receipt. If it says "failed inlet check valve", then the only way to fix that was to replace the entire fuel tank. You should be able to get a refund.
