| Description of the problem | After taking my new jeep into dealer because the "check engine" light came on, i was told that there were 16 stored codes but they could find no problem and the computer was reset. Two days later the check engine light again came on. I took back to the dealership and was told "there is a leak in the fuel tube" we have to replace it but we will have to order the part; we don't have it in stock. I was told "it is safe to drive"... A leak in the fuel tube-what the heck is leaking-is safe. Ok, but two trips to the dealer with less than 2,500 miles is a bit much. I have a 2006 jeep, same make/model that had 1st major repair (water pump) at 145,000 miles.... So much for improved models. I am very concerned that this is a harbinger of future issues. |
