Description of the problem | Vehicle stalls while driving. One night while slowing down from 70 mph to 55 mph vehicle hesitated but did not stall, check enginge light came on and went off. Next morning vehicle stalled while sitting at a stop sign, restarted and then stalled again after less then two blocks. Took it to mechanic he could not find anything wrong, vehicle drove fine for a few days, then stalled again. Called chrysler customer service and was instructed to take vehicle to dealer and tell them about x-53 warranty. Dealership checked vehicle and stated it was infact the fuel tank and would order the replacement. Told me i was in line to recevie a replacement but they only receive one replacment fuel tank every 14 business days. Car was driving fine for 2 weeks now it's stalling again, does not matter amount of gas in tank car stalls at different speeds and when coming to a stop. Contacted chrysler to see if there was anyway the shipping/ordering of tanks could be increased and this time they tell me my vehicle is not covered under the extended warranty and i had to pay out of pocket if i wanted to have the vehicle repaired. Can this case be re-opened to look at all chrysler 19 gallon fuel tanks not just the ones on the x53 extened warranty listing. Thanks |
