Consumer Description

IN A 16 MONTH PERIOD, I HAVE EXPERIENCED 3 FUEL PUMP FAILURES. #1 3/3/98 AT 34,622 MI. #2 7/9/98 AT 43,705 MI. #3 7/3/99 AT 67864 MI. THIS FAILURE HAS OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING AND HAS LEFT THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE. CHRYSLER CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE HAS BEEN CONTACTED AND THEY CLAIM THERE ARE NO KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE FUEL PUMP. DEALER CLAIMS OTHERWISE. I FEEL VEHICLE IS UNSAFE AND UNRELIABLE.
