Consumer Description

GAS WAS FLOWING FROM VALVE ALL OVER GROUND UNDER VEHICLE. I WAS ADVISED TO CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT BECAUSE THE RISK OF EXPLOSION. I HAD NOT NOTICED THE LEAKING FUEL. A BYSTANDER SAW IT AS I WAS FILLING THE CAR. OTHERWISE, I WOULD HAVE DRIVEN OFF WITHOUT KNOWING. ONE ERRANT CIGARETTE AND MY SON AND I WOULD BE DEAD. THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL FOR THIS PART IN YOUR SYSTEM BUT ONCE AGAIN DODGE SAYS MY CAR'S VIN NUMBER IS NOT IN THEIR DATABASE. YET, MY MINIVAN MEETS ALL THE OTHER VARIABLES FOR THE RECALL. DODGE IS FRAUDELANTLY NOT INPUTTING VIN NUMBERS TO AVOID HAVING TO FIX VEHICLES UNDER THE RECALL.*AK
