I have reason to beleve that my fuel system recall was not done/ or not done right. I have read the hole report about it, and in the report it says that the alignment marks must remain lined up before, durning and after installing the pump and gauge unit. Do not allow the pump or gauge unit to rotate during or after installation into the tank, resulting in inaccurate fuel gauge reading, which would require this repair to be repeated. Now my problem is, that when my says its on 3/4 tank it is empty, I get a fuel light and my car sputters and fuel cut off happens. I almost stalled on 220, doing about 65mph. That would not of been good. I dont know if this was done or done incorrectly but I would like to have it checked out, now dsc says I should't worry about it.

Intermittent - while stopped, vehicle vibrates/starts to stall and stops - "check engine light" comes on. Car will restart instantly and run o.k. (light goes out). Intermittently while driving down road "check engine light" comes on and engines hesitates - will clear up or stall. Diagnostic trouble code has never listed a code in the system. On 05/21/2002 dodge dealer recommended throttle body replacement pursuant to service bulletin no. 18-04-96 (erratic idle and mil illuminated) even though there was no diagnostic trouble code (cost: $335.50 for throttle body part, $40.00 installation and $65.00 for diagnosis). Parts replaced in 2001 to attempt to correct these problems: spark plugs, valve cover gasket, idle air control, timing belt, water pump, fuel filter; fuel injection and throttle body were cleaned. The vehicle continues to operate with the problems noted and is unreliable. Please advise.
