My moms fuel pump went out, i had it replaced. the mechanic took the old fuel pump out and discovered that the wiring harness was melted, on both sides. in the fuel tank and outside of it. it is only a wonder that the car did not catch fire. i had a new fuel pump put in. *tr | |||

I have had to have the fuel injectors cleaned for the second time in less than a year.car has 35k miles. was told by dealer service center chrysler doesn't use dirt resistant fuel injectors & this is a problem with my model/year. of course cleaning is not covered under warranty and has been over $120.00 each time. chrysler doesn't consider these defective & will not replace per warranty. it was suggested to me by mechanic i use a can of fuel injector cleaner once a month. *ak |
