SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
MY BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING. IT WILL STAY ON AND THEN GO OFF AT DIFFERENT TIMES. THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND I EVEN TOOK A PICTURE OF IT HAPPENING WHILE GOING 70MPH. THE DEALER SAID UNLESS IT HAPPENS WITH THEM IN THE VEHICLE THEY CANNOT FIND THE ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR MY DAUGHTER AND BROTHERS CHRYSLER AS WELL. I HAVE RESEARCHED IT ON THE INTERNET AND THERE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT JUST COMING ON FOR NO REASON AND THE DEALER STATING NOTHING IS WRONG. I BELIEVE THE CHRYSLER VEHICLES NEED TO BE RECALLED AND PROBLEM TO BE DETERMINED AND FIXED. WITH A BRAKE LIGHT COMING ON THIS COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD LEAD TO MAJOR ACCIDENTS IF THE BRAKES FOR SOME REASON DOES NOT OPERATE. *TR

STEERING
MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HER 2007 CHRYSLER ASPEN IN PARSIPANNY, NJ. SHE WAS MERGING FROM 287S ONTO 80W AND TRAVELING ABOUT 35MPH. AS SHE WAS MERGING ONTO 80W THE DRIVER'S SIDE BALL JOINT ON THE STEERING LINKAGE COMPLETELY FAILED RESULTING IN A TOTAL LOSS OF CONTROL. SHE MANAGED TO LIMP CAR TO SIDE OF ROAD AND CALLED MYSELF AND AAA TO HAVE CAR BROUGHT TO DEALER FOR SERVICE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DEFECT. THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 64K MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN REGULARLY SERVICED. SHE IS 7 MONTHS PREGNANT AND WE HAVE A 3.5 YEAR OLD SON. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES, TRAFFIC CONDITIONS, AND/OR SPEED WE ARE WAITING TO HEAR DEALERS/MANUFACTURERS RESPONSE AND SOLUTION.. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE AN 2007 CHRYSLER ASPEN WITH 43,000 MILES ON IT. JUST BOUGHT IT TWO WEEKS AGO AND SINCE THEN I'VE HAD A PROBLEM FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL. ON THREE SEPARATE ATTEMPTS, AFTER THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF IN THE FUEL NOZZLE TRIPS, A VERY LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL COME FLYING BACK OUT. EVERYTIME IT HAS COME OUT FAR ENOUGH TO SPLASH BACK ON THE PUMP ITSELF. ON A FOURTH ATTEMPT, I TRIED TO PUT THE GAS IN AS SLOW AS POSSIBLE AND STILL WITH NO WARNING, GAS CAME BACK OUT, NOT SPEWING, BUT STILL CAME BACK OUT. IT'S A VERY AGGRAVATING AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM. *TR

SUSPENSION:FRONT
1. NO FAILURE HAS OCCURRED, BUT IT FEELS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. 2. DESCRIPTION: THE SUSPENSION IS TOO SOFT AND BOUNCY. THE FRONT END FEELS LIKE IT SKIPS ACROSS THE ROAD IF YOU HIT A BAD SPOT IN THE PAVEMENT; JUST NORMAL BUMPS. DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SPEED, BUT IF YOU ARE ON THE INTERSTATE, IT FEELS INCREDIBLE DANGEROUS. CANNOT FEEL THE ROAD WHATSOEVER. TOO MANY "LARGE" BLIND SPOTS. I WON'T LET MY CHILDREN DRIVE THIS CAR, B/C I DON'T FEEL IT IS SAFE TOO DRIVE. 3. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER MANY TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND VIBRATION ISSUE. THEY BASICALLY SAY THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS, OUR 2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN WITH 37,000 MILES HAS BEEN SPILLING FUEL AT THE END OF EACH REFUELING. THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AS IT SHOULD, AND THEN FUEL SPILLS OUT. I WOULD ESTIMATE THAT APPROXIMATELY 5-7 OUNCES OF FUEL SPILL OUT EACH TIME THIS OCCURS. I DID SOME RESEARCH, AND LEARNED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL TANK OF THE 2005 DODGE DURANGO (SAME VEHICLE - OURS IS REBADGED AS A CHRYSLER). THE RECALL LANGUAGE STATED "FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE INLET CHECK VALVE MAY NOT FULLY CLOSE AT THE END OF REFUELING. THIS COULD ALLOW SOME FUELED TO ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE FILLER NECK AT THE END OF REFUELING." THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT SEEMS TO BE OCCURRING ON OUR 2008 MODEL. THE PUMP SHUTS OFF, BUT FUEL THEN FOLLOWS AND SPILLS OUT. *TR
