| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While two months pregnant, my wife noticed a gas odor coming from around the car while she drove to work. she initially assumed it was coming from another vehicle. when i picked her up at work the next day i also noticed the smell of gasoline. when i opened the hood of the car, i noticed a puddle of gas sitting on the top of the engine below the u-shaped fuel track. i didn't drive the car after that discovery for fear that the engine area would ignite. when i contacted a local dealer, they stated that a similar flaw in the fuel track had been recalled on other vehicles for similar reasons. i contacted chrysler only hoping to be reimbursed for the defective part. chrysler's response was that since the vehicle was no longer under warranty, they were not concerned. i'm really only doing this to avoid someone else from being injured by the defective fuel track that leaks and leaves a large puddle of gasoline on top of the engine. |
