| Description of the problem | Every time i fill up the van, as soon as i pull out of the gas station it will idle rough, hesitate, or die all together. I could have 1/2 tank and add maybe 5 gal of gas and it will do the same thing. I saw online that i am not the only one that had this issue. It ranges for different years and come to find our it has to do with a valve above the tank and cant be replaced singly but the whole tank for $1600 plus labor. This is a safety issue because this thing has happen in the middle of an intersection while turning. I called melloy dodge here in albuquerque nm and they right shot me down about as quick it took to dial the phone number. |
