NHTSA Complaint #10070500 — 1996 DODGE CARAVAN

I RECEIVED A RECALL REGARDING MY 1996 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WHICH WAS REPAIRED ON JANUARY 25, 2001, BY MY MECHANIC WITH ONE STOP AUTO. I RECEIVED A TWO RECALL NOTICES (1) DATED 1/25/01 AND 10/27/01, IN WHICH I AM STILL GETTING THE SAME LETTER FOR RECALL FROM THEM. WHAT HAPPEN IS THAT I HAD FUEL UP AT A SERVICE STATION BACK ON JANUARY 24,2001 AND NOTICE GAS COMING OUT OF MY CAR AND I CALLED MY MECHANIC THAT EVENING AND HE TOLD ME (MECHANIC) TO BRING THE CAR DOWN THE NEXT DAY. I WENT TO THE SHOP AND THEY DISCOVERED THAT IT NEED A GAS TANK SENDING UNIT ASSY. UNIT AND IT WAS REPLACED THAT DAY. I RECEIVED A RECALL FROM DAIMLER CHRYSLER FOR THE REASON OF RING AROUND THE GAS TANK. I WROTE THEM A LETTER BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THE MATTER AND THEY RESPONSE TO ME THAT IT WAS NOT WHAT THE RECALL WAS FOR. I THEN WROTE THEM A LETTER AND THE RESPONSE THAT THE FACTS PRESENTED IN MY LETTER TO THEM THAT I HAD NOT MET THE REQUIRED CONDITIONS OF THE RECALL. SO, DAIMLER/CHRYSLER DECLINE MY REQUEST. IT COST ME $523.05 TO REPLACE THE UNIT.
