Description of the problem | It was observed that a gas smell was noticed while in my car when parked in the garage and threw out my vehicle cabin. After a day or so i called the dodge dealership and requested to bring it in due to a strong gas vapor smell coming from my vehicle. They say it is not a problem. Had my fuel system replaced and still have the same problem. I feel i am driving a car bomb and am just waiting for it to explode. I feel that the company has no respect for the people who buy their cars. Also while driving on my way home doing about 60 mph in the right lane on the expressway and the car completely shutdown, the engine light came on, i couldn't even steer the car, the steering wheel locked up, breaks locked up , had to let the car coast into the emergency lane, luckly there weren't any cars in front or behind me. Which could have been fatal. While in the emergency lane put the car in park turned off their ignition, turned on the ignition put the car in drive and the car wouldn't move, put it back in park turned the ignition off again, started it again put in drive. But still kept staling had to have it put on a trailer and hauled back to dealership. They still could not find anything wrong with it . No codes would show up and they wouldn't do anything unless a code showed up. Deathtraps are what these are. |
