2014 Chrysler Town & Country Fuel System Problems

Hole in the top of the fuel pump from electrical connection getting too hot.

WE HAD TO REPLACE THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER IN OUR VAN BECAUSE IT WAS LEAKING. OUR MECHANIC SAID HE IS FIXING A LOT OF THESE IN VANS SIMILAR TO OURS. WHEN RESEARCHING ONLINE, WE SEE THAT LARGE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE WITH 2014 CHRYSLER VANS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. SOME EVEN REPORTED THEIR VEHICLES CATCHING FIRE AS A RESULT OF THE ISSUE. IT COST OVER $600 FOR US TO HAVE IT REPAIRED.

GAS WAS POURING OUT OF THE FLUE LINE LINE DOWN OVER THE GAS TANK ONTO THE FREEWAY WHILE DRIVING EMPTYING OUT THE GAS TANK. DID NOT KNOW THE EXTENT OF THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE PROBLEM UNTIL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS CALLED. IT WAS THEN THAT I WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD TO GET CLEARANCE THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO TOW. BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM I REALIZED THE VEHICLE COULD HAVE CAUGHT AFIRE WHILE DRIVING CAUSING BODY INJURIES TO ALL THAT WERE IN THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING. HAVE NO PICTURES AT PRESENT TO UPLOAD SINCE THE VEHICLE IS IN THE SHOP FOR REPAIRS. HOPEFULLY, I CAN OBTAIN PICTURE(S) TO SUBMIT AT A LATER DATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT REACH THE ADVERTISED NUMBER OF CITY AND HIGHWAY MILES PER GALLON. THE CONTACT DID NOT INDICATE SPECIFIC SPEEDS. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,500.

WHILE GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY THE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED TO FULL AND EXHAUST SMELL OR A GAS SMELL WAS WITNESSED IN THE BACK SEAT. AFTER SEVERAL DELIBERATE TIMES OF PRESSING THE GAS TO FULL EVERY TIME THE SAME SMELL WAS WITNESSED IN THE BACK SEATS OF THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE IS SIX MONTHS OLD AND IS GOING TO BE GOING TO THE DEALER ASAP. *TR
