Vehicle is leaking fuel. However,manufacturer informed consumer that it was not part of recall 94v106000 due to VIN. *ak
After detecting a significant fuel leak on my vehicle, I consulted the federal safety agency's website. As this was an unexpected/unusual occurrence, I suspected a recall may be in effect. I confirmed campaign #94v106000 is in effect for ~230,000 units, and that the problem I was experiencing was consistent with the recall. I contacted chrysler national service ~17 nov and received advice to present it to dealer for repair and inclusion under recall. Following scheduled appoinment and repairs for a safety item, follow-up with chrysler for reimbursement has been unsuccessful. Chrysler maintains that my vehicle is not affected, despite consistency with other similarly affected vehicles. Request reimbursement for $162.60 for this safety item -- fuel leak near ignition source (exhaust system) was not an optional repair, and chrysler should honor inclusion for this fairly negligible amount.
Sending unit is not installed correctly/gasket is cracked. Consumer is having the same problem as mentioned in recall 94v106000, consumer feels if rear ended jeep may blow up because of fuel leaking all over the place.
