| 2007 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | I JUST PURCHASED MY CAR IN LATE APRIL IT IS NOW NOVEMBER. I DIDN'T NOTICE THE BRAKE PROBLEM WHICH IS A VIBRATION WHEN I CAME TO A STOP, UNTIL A WEEK AFTER. I FIGURED I PROBABLY NEED NEW BRAKE PADS. ONE OF MY LEAST CONCERNS. BUT LAST MONTH I BEGAN TO SMELL GAS. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME OR THE LOCATION I WAS AT. I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND THERE'S WAS NO LEAK. I KEPT DOING THIS WHEN I SMELLED GAS AND NOTHING. LAST NIGHT NOVEMBER 6 2011, I FILLED UP MY TANK TO GO OUT OF TOWN. WHEN I WAS LEAVING TO GO BACK HOME FROM THE LONG RIDE, THE PARKING AREA SMELLED LIKE GAS! IT WAS LEAKING FROM MY CAR! ABOUT A QUARTER OF GAS LEAKED. THIS TIME I SAW A PUDDLE ON THE GROUND WHERE THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE WOULD BE. NOT ONLY WAS THIS EMBARRASSING BUT I HAD MY WIFE AND CHILD WITH ME IN THE CAR THAT I HAD TO TAKE HOME SMELLING THIS AS WELL AS TAKING THE RISK OF BLOWING UP! WE DID NOT HAVE ANY OTHER WAY OF GETTING HOME, THAT'S WHY I HAD NO CHOICE AND TOOK THE RISK. THANK GOD WE GOT HOME SAFE. THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS. *TR |
| 2007 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | 2007 CHRYSLER 300 WITH 43,684. PROBLEM FUEL CAP LEAKING. NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALERSHIP GALENA CHRYSLER WOULD NOT PAY FOR REPAIR. CALL CHRYSLER HEADQUARTERS(REF# 19582516) SAID NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON I TOOK IT TO GALENA CHRYSLER IN FORT MYERS FL. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ONE YEAR AGO TO THE DAY, SAME DEALERSHIP, SAID NOTHING WRONG. I THINK FUEL AND VAPORS HAVE BEEN LEAKING FOR OVER A YEAR WITH THIS CAR. I FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO. I KNOW IT MUST BE A PROBLEM, BECAUSE NO ONE FROM CHRYSLER HEADQUARTERS CALLED ME BACK OR EMAIL. AFTER 4 DAYS IN THE SHOP I JUST HAD TO PAY FOR IT. NO MATTER HOW OLD THE CAR SAFETY PROBLEMS MUST BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER. HOW ME PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE UNTIL WE ADDRESS THE PROBLEM? *TR |
