The federal safety agency recall 00 v 268 000/manufacturers recall 895 concerning fuel leakage: fuel is leaking from the fuel rail onto the engine. Dealer contacted and informed consumer that vehicle was not covered under that recall due to VIN. *ak
The federal safety agency recall 00v268000/ manufacturer's recall recall 895; gas is leaking underneath vehicle in same location for fifth time. Vehicle was recalled and serviced once. Vehicle has never been diagnosed to correct the ongoing problem. Dealer and manufacturer contacted. Please provide more information.
Noticed fuel leaking from fuel tank. After researching internet, etc. Found that there was a recall on the fuel rail. Took to dealer for recall work on fuel rail. Recall work had already been done on o-ring, etc. At dealer, mentioned leaking gas to dealer. Informed that valve is leaking and a new tank would be required. After further research found that this problem exists for many, many others! Leak only occurs when tank is at least 3/4 full and van is parked with the front on a downhill angle! Chrysler must know of the problem?
Chrysler knows very well that there is system failure in air bag "clock spring" in the steering wheel. The federal safety agency should ask chrysler for one simple piece of information: how many driver's side air bag "clock spring" replacement parts" are you selling? Because chrysler is selling tens of thousands, it is clear to any idiot that there is a manufacturer's defect in this important safety device. Chrysler has a similar problem with fuel tank sender device. They are all breaking.
Received recall notice #00v268000. Contacted dealership. Was informed no parts were available to repair fuel leakage recall. Service mechanic indicated it was on national back order.
When filling up fuel tank could see a fuel leakage on ground. Could not see where it was coming from. Had contacted dealer. Please provide more infomation.
The federal safety agency recall#00-v-268-000. Consumer received the recall letter beginning of march. Dealer doesn't know when the part will be available.

Consumer had found a fuel leakage. Took vehicle to dealer, and they found out that fuel pump had to be replaced. Please provide more infomation.
After the technician brought to the consumer attention, that he smelled gas, they took the vehicle to dealer. Dealer determined the fuel tank vent lines were full of gas and the rear gas tank vent and canister was leaking, therefore recommended a new fuel tank. But they declined the fuel tank replacement at this time. Consumer stated that, since there have been two recalls on this fuel tank already, #665 and#845, consumer feels this recent problem is coincidental with the recall #845, and that the tank might be defective.
Very strong gas odor in vehicle. Mechanic said that fire was very possible since fuel was leaking onto engine.
After making stops consumer could smell a fuel smell. Had vehicle serviced, technician could not find cause. Consumer noticed fuel pouring out of fuel tank while vehicle was parked in driveway down hill. *ak fuel tank was leaking from seam near the top of the tank, dealer replaced the tank.
I had been smelling gas 3 months after purchase. They recalled the o rings and changed that I thought that would releave the problem but it did not. Then in july I was park on a hill and gas started pouring out the tank so I moved the car leveled and it stoped from then on the gas smell was so bad I started having headaches, on august 22, 2001 I took to the dealer and the said it was clapsing and had to be replaced I told them is that the responsiblity of the dealer they said no that it was ware and tear and it would cost 1079.89. The smell of gas was so bad and I did not think gas tanks just go out from driving! I drive a mini van w/children in it I do not race this car in order for it to go out!
Vehicle was on a slight slope with the front end slopping downward. Noticed fuel leaking onto ground from the area of fuel tank. Had vehicle repaired previously under a recall in oct 2001 for same problem. Had taken vehicle to dealership. Mechanic indicated leakage is from a different location. It's on the intake hose of the fuel tank.

Vehicle had been included on fuel leakage the federal safety agency recall 00 v 268 000/ and manufacturer's recall # 895 that stated fuel could leak from underhood fuel injection fuel rail, could result in a vehicle fire.
Consumer smelled a fuel odor. Went to dealer, who stated that he noticed nothing wrong. Consumer then found out about recall on fuel rail. Called chrysler ,who informed consumer that recall notice would be mailed in july 2001. On mar 30, 2001 consumer filled fuel tank, and noticed fuel dripping from fuel rail. Had vehicle repaired, chrysler told consumer they may reimburse her in july.
Fuel rail is leaking gas onto engine. Dealer has been contacted. There is a recall for problem, but this vehicle is not covered due to VIN. *ak consumer's vehicle experienced the exact same problem as recall 00v268, however this vehicle was not covered under recall.
Consumer states fuel can be smelled inside the vehicle, the service department stated that some fuel pumps allow the fumes to gather under the body cavity and enter the vehicle through the heating and cooling system, consumer feels this is a bad design as well as a safety issue.
Plastic manufactured fuel tank has developed a crack, and is leaking badly. Dealer has been contacted. *ak the dealer blames the manufacturer for defective design but the manufacture blames the dealer for poor installation. Fuel tank cracked due to incorrect instalation.
Fuel tank leaks fuel. Consumer took vehicle to dealer, and dealer replaced gas tank. Vehicle was taken to the dealer 5 months prior to tank leaking for other problems, and at that time tank was leaking a small amount of fuel. After the 5 months gastank was pouring gas out. Currently, dealer does not want to admit that gas tank was part of the recall that was issued before vehicle was taken in.
Following recall of fuel pump o ring we noticed a stong gas odor following each filling of the tank to capacity. Thought it was just from overflow. Finally took to dealer. Dealer reported vent breather tube cracked on top of tank. Had to replace entire tank due to the tube being molded into the tank. I agreed to have tank replaced, and then kept the old tank. Checked top of tank and could see that leakage occured, but not how. Vent tube was removable contradictory to what dealer stated. Tube not cracked. I filled tank and tipped it to put pressure on the vent tube. No leakage occurred. I'm worried that the problem wasn't fixed by replacing the tank. Now there is a new recall on fuel rail system. Mechanic at dealership said the new tank had a redesigned vent system on the top of the tank. I was charghed $789 to replace tank when tank wasn't the problem, and the dealers explanation of what was damaged was incorrect. It appears to me that there must be a problem with the vent tube seal, although it isn't apparent, or there is a lot of pressure building in the system somewhere, which causes it to flow out of vent to tank connection, although I couldn't get it to leak. If the new tank had a redesigned vent system, that tells me the previous vent system was faulty. Am I responsible for replacement if it was obviously a known problem? Please advise what I should do. I'm worried with the new recall that the car may still not be safe. The dealer did not check the fuel rail system of this vehicle before I paid for the new tank on november 1. Thanks for your help!
Fuel lines were spilling gas all over engine due to a faulty fuel rail. Dealer has vehicle currently.*ak
Transmission failed at 86000 miles, windshield wiper problems, A/C failed 5 times in the last 4 years
Can smell fumes inside of vehicle after putting fuel into the tank. If the tank was full, the fuel would leak out. Took to dealer & mechanic could not locate cause of the leakage. Has happened at least 8 times & problem not solved. Took it back again & mechanic informed owner the entire fuel tank assembly needed to be replaced.
