While driving vehicle bursted into flames due to the fuel pump malfunctioning. The vehicle was totaled. Dealer and manufacturer have notified.

Filed Apr 22, 1999 · Acceleration, Electrical · TX

I have lost two starter engines in 90,000 miles, which appear to be component design flaws. The chronic stalling problem surfaced at 5,000 miles, and the chrysler technical center could not diagnose the problem. Stalling has occurred while driving the vehicle at <25 MPH (during left or right hand turns), which I believe is a safety hazard. Several times, a dealer cleaned the throttle body housing, but the problem would reoccur frequently. I notice that there are more than 10 technical service bulletins for the idle control motor, the fuel pump, stalling immediately at cold start, stalling after the transmission is placed into gear, etc. I believe that my vehicle is a lemon and dodge/chrysler has not dealt with me fairly.

What is wrong
Fuel tank flanges were not bent as required to allow the specified clearance for the fuel tank mounting straps and fuel lines at the tank.
Risk
The unbent flanges to the fuel tank will damage themounting straps and/or fuel lines. The damaged mounting straps may break causingthe tank to drop and the damaged fuel line will leak fuel. In either case a firecould result if the spilled fuel is exposed to an ignition source.
Remedy
Repair the flange by bending to the correct angle; replace damaged fuel lines and mounting straps.
