| Description of the problem | After filling up my gas tank i drove away from the fuel place, and i was at a green light making a left turn and during the left turn my van stalled!! Another time after this, directly after filling up gas i was idling at a red light not far from where i fueled up, when my van surged forward! This is apparently an "extended warranty" up to the 2005 dodge caravan for a faulty vapour/liquid separator valve that is built into the gas tank. I contacted dodge and they said that because my van was a 2007 not a 2005 that they couldn't recall it. This is so extremely dangerous and unbelievable that they won't extend this warranty. Had someone been coming when i was turning left and my van stalled i would've been t-boned. All of this occurred on a city street. |
