Consumer Description

I HAVE BEEN SMELLING GAS FOR THE LAST SIX MONTHS.O N 11-21-2015 IT WAS DROPPED OFF AT THE DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE.WHEN I PICKED IT UP ALL THE DOORS AND TRUNK WERE OPEN PRESUMABLY TO AIR OUT THE FUMES.I HAD MY SON CHECK TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS,HE FOUND FUEL LEAKING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FUEL TANK.A LARGE AREA OF THE SOUND PROOFING UNDER THE CAR WAS SOAKED WITH GASOLINE. AFTER CHECKING SEVERAL CHRYSLER BLOGS HE FOUND OUT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON SEVERAL CHRYSLER MODELS AROUND 2011.I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER WHO ADVISED IT SHOULD BE SAFE TO DRIVE. THEY FOUND THEY FOUND THE RIGHT SIDE FUEL PUMP LEVEL UNIT LEAKING ON TOP . I BELIEVE IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND SHOULD BE RECALLED.
