Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The connector to the fuel pump overheats causing the plastic housing to melt its way into the fuel tank. Fuel leaks under the rear seat and the fumes fill the car. I purchased a new fuel pump assembly and it came with a wiring harness and connector. There was overheating mentioned with the installation instructions, so this is not a new problem. How can gas under the rear seat not be a major concern?”
NHTSA complaint #11217478, filed 2019-06, 29,000 miles“Car will just die while driving at any speed and RPM's will just drop off. Sometimes it will come back on as it were in neutral then go into second gear while shifter is still in drive and car jerks around and lunges forward. This has happened to me at 10mph - 60 MPH. It has been doing it for a few months.”
NHTSA complaint #10984301, filed 2017-05, 37,500 miles“While inside the vehicle, occupants smell a very strong odor of gasoline. Checked fuel pumps under back seat and there was a puddle of fuel on top of the driver side fuel pump. Upon further inspection found the fuel to be coming out of the electrical connector for the driver side fuel pump. All seals were still good. The connectors were burnt out and the plastic was melted. This has happened on several vehicles in our fleet. (approx 20). The smell is consistent once the connector is melted.”
NHTSA complaint #11131589, filed 2018-09, 50,000 miles“Driving normal condition, when the gas starting counting down every second starting at 60 miles and then the engine shut off. Able to put gas in and starting driving again and same incident happened.”
NHTSA complaint #11129206, filed 2018-09, 72,000 miles“My 2015 Dodge Charger is in the shop because of the “Fuel pump and pigtail to the the fuel pump, burnt off the exhaust ” per the mechanics exact words. The mechanic told me my car has the possibility to catch fire/explode and can pose great harm to me and anyone in the car. I was also informed this problem was a manufacturing issue and there was nothing I could have done to cause it or prevent it. This problem is extremely reminiscent of the R07 recall in 2015 Dodge Chargers, yet my 2015 Dodge Charger Vin does not show this recall for my car specifically. …”
