| Description of the problem | After filling up at gas station (dte showed 68mi) pulled onto street - engine sputtered and would hardly run. Next fillup - approximately 2 weeks later about same dte drove about 1/2 mile and vehicle stalled and difficult to get started. Very dangerous -to be in traffic and stall. Have read online - am not the only one this is happening to - something with a part in the gas tank that is not able to be replaced -only solution reported was to replace gas tank. Looks like this is issue on other dodge products - sounds like design flaw - whatever it is it is very stressful for an older person driving in a high traffic area. |
