Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When I started the car the engine was cold from sitting in the driveway all night. I smelled gasoline. I opened the hood to find gasoline shooting out of the fuel hose right where it fits into the pressed crimped metal connection. It was spraying gasoline all over the engine. I turned of the engine before it became hot. If this leak had occurred while driving, the motor would have been hot, and caught fire. The garage replaced the plenum gasket set, fuel injection, o ring, and the fuel rail. Note: the recall #rq00008 dc minivan fuel injector rail leak was done.”
NHTSA complaint #10512026, filed 2013-05, 111,365 miles“Leaking fuel from fuel rail in front of manifold. There is a valid recall, yet Chrysler would not cover towing vehicle even though there is a dangerous situation with fuel leaking onto the engine. I very much believe that Chrysler should cover towing.”
NHTSA complaint #10683677, filed 2015-02, 195,354 miles“The dealership failed to install the seal on the fuel rail but indicated they did. The fuel injection fuel rail leaked fuel all over the engine. The vehicle was taken to another dealership who indicated that seal hadn't been installed and installed it.”
NHTSA complaint #10064898, filed 2004-03, 55,425 miles“When I went to visit my wife at the nursing home where she is, after I got in my van to go home I only made it a couple miles the gauges went goofy then the motor quit, I had no clue a relative owns a wrecker service so he came and towed me home. The next day I tried to start it but no luck, when I first got the van it did something just like this so I figured it could be the brain so I got one and put it in, nothing so while turning the engine over I didn't hear the fuel pump so I bought a replacement. …”
NHTSA complaint #10897839, filed 2016-08“Consumer contacted dealer regarding defects in vehicle. However, consumer was told by the dealership that vehicle was not included in recall o0 v 268 000. However, consumer was in fact included in recall. Please provide any further information.”
