FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
FROM WHAT THE DEALER SERVICE REP TOLD ME THERE ARE MULTIPLE FUEL LEAKS ALONG THE FUEL INJECTOR RAIL WHICH IS CAUSING GASOLINE TO LEAK. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE AND FOUND THIS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE EAGLE VISION (1993) VEHICLE. THIS CAR HAS THE SAME ENGINE AS THE NEW YORKER (1994). THE EAGLE WAS RECALLED TO FIX THAT PROBLEM. ALSO I HAVE RESEARCHED THE COMPLAINT DATABASE AND FOUND THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM MANY TIMES ON THE NEW YORKER AND LHS. WHY HAVEN'T THESE VEHICLES BEEN RECALLED TO FIX THIS DEADLY PROBLEM?

SEATS
THE FRONT SEAT TRACKS HAVE PLASTIC INSERTS IN THEM. THEY HAVE BROKEN OUT OF THE TRACKS AND HAVE BEEN FOUND ON THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES. I STARTED FINDING THESE BLACK PLASTIC INSERTS WHEN THE CAR WAS IN ITS SECOND YEAR OF OWNERSHIP. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD NOT HAD ANY REPORTS OF THIS TYPE, AND WOULD NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY REPAIRS. THE SEATS HAVE BECOME UNSTABLE ON THE TRACKS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE INSERTS TOOK UP SLACK BETWEEN THE UPPER AND LOWER HALF OF THE SEAT TRACKS. THE SEATS WILL ACTUALLY ROCK ON THEIR TRACKS. I QUESTION THE SAFETY OF THESE SEATS WITHOUT THE INSERTS IN THEM!
