This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
(1) smelled fuel (2) fuel was leaking from fuel rail above engine (3) parts on order from Dodge to replace fuel rail and its defective design with new redesigned parts. Note this was a previous recall and the parts with the design defect was just replaced.
In October the driver and rear catalytic converters became clogged in turn heating up the transaxle and causing unrepairable defects. In December, I began smelling gas fumes and checked under the hood, I noticed that there was a leak from the top of the fuel injector rail in the passenger rear of the engine. Water pump was replaced in May 2002 and again in December 2002. In December a pulley and piston were also replaced
This vehicle has had recall repair... recall no. #98V189000 fuel system gas line: The vehicle was leaking fuel onto the ground and there was a strong odor of gas inside the vehicle. The problem has been repaired, but now the vehicle continues to stall while driving at any speed. The vehicle has stalled at least 8 times since the recall repair. The manufacturer is aware of the problem.
The vehicle leaked gasoline. Consumer found out that vehicle had been in an accident prior to purchase and that a recall had already been performed. However the fuel rail O-ring leaked gasoline on the passenger side. Dealership not willing to do anything.
When driving the vehicle we smell gasoline in the passenger compartment and when we park in the garage we get a strong smell of gas. We took the car to the dealership and they said that they were unable to find a problem, yet we still get this smell.
