“One of the two fuel pumps in my 2010 Dodge Challenger had some sort of crack and started leaking. It has right over 60,000 miles on it. We keep this car in the garage attached to are home. We came home one day right after we filled the gas tank up on the car and we smelled gas when we came home that day and we thought it was on elf the other things in the garage so we removed that thing. …”

NHTSA complaint #10853645, filed 2016-04, 148 miles“Gasoline leaking around fuel pump under the backseat inside the passenger compartment. Leaking underneath vehicle in front of rear passenger tire. Vehicle has been sitting in driveway overnight. This happens every time I fill the gas tank. The smell/fumes are overwhelming inside the vehicle and there is a pool of gasoline on my driveway. Upon research, this is a very common occurrence with Dodge vehicles with no safety recall. This has been going on for close to a year with no help from dealerships.”
NHTSA complaint #11103577, filed 2018-06, 70,000 miles“Engine quit while driving on the freeway with no warning! I was extremely lucky that it didn't quit on one of the back roads I drive every day to work, because there are no shoulders to pull over on, and I will most likely be rear ended when it happens again, and I know it will.. I can tell the failure is going to happen again from my past experience, and I have notified chrysler several times about it, but they refuse to fix the issue.”
