Sitting idle at a stop light and my van stalled. While I tried to start it again, it began to accelerate on its own. It will stall while driving and lose all power and the steering/ brakes get hard. It will begin to accelerate on its own while the brake is pushed. I had it diagnosed yesterday and it is a melted wiring fuel rail harness that was placed right above the exhaust manifold. It can melt and catch fire. This is a known problem with this year and model. Please help!

The first year I purchased the vehicle, I had to take it in for fuel issues ,paid out $50 the first time for deductible, then the second year $150 same problem, fuel, had to have a new fuel pump,now I have having more fuel problems which means I will have to pay out $250 being this is my third year. Now I was reading online that there have been some recalls for this same problem on dodge caravans. I would like to know if there is anything I can do, to have y problem looked at and fixed without coming out of my pocket a 3rd time for the same issue. When I purchased the veh from drive time, they stated they did an all around inspection. Also, my passenger side sliding door will open on its own even while I am driving sometimes. And it wont latch on until the 3rd or 4th try.

Ruptured fuel line spraying gasoline onto muffler. The fuel lines are plastic and are attached to the fuel filter and are replaced together as a unit. The plastic line had a quarter inch rupture. This filter had less than 30k miles and was about a year old. Why does chrysler use plastic fuel line? I do not know the cause - a weak inferior plastic or a sharp stone perhaps. Either way, it does not matter. I have never seen a hard plastic used for fuel delivery. The old style rubber fuel hoses would be much better and safer. I am thinking this plastic is used because of the flex fuel option but I am not a mechanic. I am glad my vehicle did not catch fire. I was lucky. After replacing the filter with a new one from napa one of the fuel lines would not stop leaking. I had to return it for another non leaking filter. Because of this I am also concerned about the quality of replacement parts as well.

Nothing unusual leading up to this. Had a check engine light. When we brought it to the dealer, there was a small leak on the fuel filler neck. The car was only 5 years old and is washed, garaged every night, and taken care of. Fuel necks should not be failing in such short time.
