Dealers will inspect the brake, fuel supply and fuel vapor tubes for the presence of corrosion. Any tubes showing corrosion will be replaced. All vehicles will have the rubber isolator replaced with a plastic clip.

Due to corrosion, the brake lines ruptured while I was braking. I fear that the corrosion will also lead to fuel line leakage. There is an existing recall on both components, my VIN# is not included in the recalls campaign number on brake lines 96v2280000

The vehicle's fuel tank had a small extra hole in it which was plugged by a small vinyl plug. It appeared that he fuel ate through the plastic plug and allowed fuel to leak out. *ak

The car's computer, or ecu malfunctioned twice. No power was reaching the coil, hence there was no spark and the car would not start. At first the auto shutoff delay was replaced. But the day after the car was fixed, it once again stalled. It took one week to diagnose the problem: bad computer in the car. This might have been disastrous had it happened on the highway.

Fuel pump drain plug leak. There is a leak in the fuel pump of my 1995 plymouth neon. I had an incident and brought it to a mechanic. The mechanic said that chrysler did not have any recalls on it and they do not sell the plug by itself. The mechanic said that I would have to buy a new fuel pump. You see the problem is that the fuel pump itself has a drain plug and that deteriorated and fuel began to leak. I think this needs further investigating. I was lucky that I caught it on time. Think of those families who will not be so lucky. I still have the same fuel pump. We just installed a plug on it.

The first problem began with the timing belt breaking, I returned to casino auto sales to find a solution,their mechanic " fixed" the problem so I thought only to have the same problem occur again about a month and half later with a bad fuel pump added to the problem so I went somewhere else to have that fixed. About a week after I purchased the vehicle I was taken to sears to purchase a new set of tires, I was told by a sears rep. That I was lucky to not have had an accident because the wrong size tires were put on the car which caused me to have problems with the right passenger side tired with wobbling. My vehicle then began to smoke from the steering coloum whenever the head lights are turned on, I havent even bothered to go back to casino because I wouldnt trust them to actuaalt fix it the right and honest way do to the fact that I bought the car with cash so they basically sold me a lemon.
