| Description of the problem | My van when i fill it up would runn so ruff and then would die trying to cross the street. Then it started smelling like gas when i filled it up.. Then it started smelling like gas and trying to die when i filled it up. So as long as i dont fill it more than half way i was ok. My son finds out about this and makes me take the car in. They tell me it is the fuel pump, fuel tank and cannister. I ask how can it be all 3 ? Go head and take it apart and make sure whats proken and fix it. They say its under recall and needs a new tank and cannister but pump is not included. Well if it pumps fine under half a tank and runs fine under half a tank then what going on. They replace everything cnly charge me 7. 00 for labor but 397. 00 for parts. A month later call me back to replace it all again. They never shower me the bad parts as requested. |
