1996 Plymouth Grand Voyager fuel system complaints
Page 3 of 4: complaints 41 to 70 of 98, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Dear officer, I am writing this complaint with deep frustration and stress. Gas fuel tank is suppose to be built to last. It is not a weary type of component. The problem posses serious and fatal safety issue to our family and others who drive such vehicle. Why should owner be responsible for original mfg. Defect. Problem: fuel gas tank leaks on the seam line. Fuel odor presents around the vehicle. Appear as original mfg. Defect on fuel gas tank. Have taken photo pictures and asked dealer to save original defect fuel tank as evidence. Please contact us immediately for update. Sincerely. Wayne hu and she wang
While filling up vehicle it started leaking gas, just like it did back in mar.2000 when it was taken in for recall on fuel tank. Took vehicle to dealer, and they said it had nothing to do with recall, and that tank broke and needed to be replaced.
So many problems and no one is listening
While the front transmission seal was being replaced, the mechanic warned me about the gas tank leaking gasoline. No visable puncture holes can be seen and the leak appears to come from the seem of the tank. He said this does not appear to be from normal wear and tear and to not drive the vehicle until repaired due to danger of explosion and/or fire. When michael stead chrysler dealership in walnut creek was contacted, I was told on the phone there is no recall on the leaking gas tanks and that the leak is not related to the other recall on our gas tank assembly. We have also experienced the windshield wipers randomly comming on while driving. We had the switch replaced but the problem continues. Autoworld dealership told us that the manufacturer for the wipers has not made a replacement part to fix the problem and that if it was replaced we would just have the same problem.
Recall 845, performed on 2/23/00 partially improved things temporarily, but did not fix the problem completely. Problem has increasingly been getting worse since june '00. No safety defect mentioned within summary.
While traveling there was a gas smell inside of vehicle. Also, gas was leaking. Dealer has repaired vehicle, but problem has returned. Please provide further information.
Prior to recall fuel pump module seal failed (99v‑216), replaced fuel tank assembly prior to notification, request reimbursement. Yh
Despite several dealership "fixes" gas tank shifts and thumps when accelerating or stopping sharply. All electric door locks had to be replaced due to electrical "vibration"-type noises when activating. Rear brakes have "hummed" when lightly braking since new. Problem evolved into surging. Needed a complete brake job at 40,000 miles due, I believe, to lack of dealership fix before hand.
The federal safety agency recall 99v216000 and manufacturer's recall 845 concerning fuel pump failure. Called to make an appointment. When they went to the dealer, he stated that information was not in the computer. This has happened twice. *ak
The federal safety agency recall no. 99v216000 and mrf recall no. 845. Called to make appt. And when they go to the dealer the info is not in the computer. This has happen twice.
No parts available for safety recall of the fuel pump module. Nlm
No summary listed for above vehicle.
Fuel gauge light keeps going off with a full or 1/2 full gas tank. Also when putting vehicle in reverse, a hard knock would appear in front of vehicle . Dealer notified, and unable to locate/correct the problem.
There is a fuel leak at the interface fuel pump module, causing the fuel to leak into the engine. Fuel tank cap/seal has been replaced. Also, fuel vent was leaking.
Driving at 65 MPH in left lane of highway, lost ability to accelerate and the vehicle just decelerated. I was just able to pull to the side of the road. Dealer replaced the fuel pump (with refurbished part because new parts were on back order). I know of one other voyager owner with the same problem at 60,000 miles. Latest recall on fuel pump (the federal safety agency camp #99v216000 - fuel pump) makes me wonder if there is a leak of fuel, dirt,contamination, or air could also enter the pump causing premature failure of it.
The fuel pump failure (twice) is not only incovenient and expensive the 2nd time(not under warranty), but it also can be dangerous if it occurs at the wrong time, like during passing. The windshield wipers randomly turn-on is more annoying than dangerous. I do know a few more owners in central wisconsin that have the same problem. My sliding door electronic lock problem is a theft issue--the doors can't be locked when the locks malfunction-- and both sliding doors malfunctioned during the last year- again not under warranty.
The problem with the gas tank is that when I fill the tank up gas starts spilling on the ground. It is leaking from the top of the tank next to the cab of the van. I know there was a fuel pump gasket or some other kind of recall about the tanks on 96 vans and I think it is the same problem. Can you check into this please. I asked the local dealer to check the VIN number for recalls and the fuel tank problem was not for my van. Can you check into this problem and see if there should be a recall for my van also?. Thanks.
The fuel tank on this van leaks when tank is full or close to full. I have noticed that fuel will drip from the top of the tank when parked and a strong odor when stopping after driving. I have been told that dodge has had recalls on this, also consumer reports issue jan 2000 has listed a recall on this problem. I contacted chrysler/plymouth and they are unaware of any recall for this problem.
If the recall for the fuel leak was suppose to begin in september 1999, why it is that this is january 2000 and still no recall on my vehicle. Talked to my chrysler dealer today and they said that they haven't heard anything about this recall. Thank you for your time.
Fuel was leaking from the fuel tank due to corrosion. Dealer has replaced the fuel tank. *ak
Emergency brake fails to hold. Mjs
When braking, the driver starts to smell gasoline. Vehicle was taken to dealership & was informed by mechanic the fuel tank was cracked & was not under warranty. *ak
Fuel tank leaks. Gas puddles on the ground and can smell fumes in the van. One chrysler dealer told me it was the rollover valve in the tank, another said it was the filler tube. Chrysler refuses to fix the problem at their cost.
Seam failed on top of gas tank and allowed gas to leaks out when tank was full. This condition poses a major fire hazard. Manufacturer agreed to pay for the tank, but not for the labor to install the tank.
Filled the tank with fuel the night before. Next day noticed odor. Checked vehicle & saw a large puddle beneath vehicle. Fuel gauge indicated a loss of fuel. Took vehicle to dealer & was told not it was not their fault that fuel leaked out. Mechanic checked fuel tank & noticed leak coming from seam at top of fuel tank. Parts would be ordered for fuel tank.
Poor design of fuel tank which was built under /against the floorboard in the middle of the vehicle where gravel and road debris is rubbing, causing a hole in the plastic tank.
While traveling along the freeway at approximately 60 MPH, I struck a piece of metal debris. Upon arrival at my home 5 minutes later, I smelled fuel and observed that the fuel tank was ruptured. I took a photo of the leaking fuel tank, which I am able to forward via the internet as a file.jpg if desirable.
Fuel tank shows empty but will hold only 12 gallons of fuel. Now the guage is going haywire and alarming all the time now . Gasoline vapors .
Engine continually stalling while in deceleration, unable to rectify. Mjs
