FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
SPOKE W/ CHRYSLER AND THE DEALERSHIP DIRECTLY ABOUT LEAK IN DASHBOARD. SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, NEITHER WOULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT PROBLEM W/O HAVING THEIR MECHANIC INSPECT THE VEHICLE AT A COST OF $75/HR. PAYABLE BY OWNER (ME). I POINTED OUT ALL THEY NEEDED TO DO WAS LOOK AT THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOORBOARD TO SEE THE PUDDLE OF WATER LEFT AFTER IT RAINED THE NIGHT BEFORE. AFTER MY EXPERIENCE W/ CHRYSLER REGARDING THE CRACKED GASKET ON MY FUEL TANK, WHICH I JUST FOUND OUT WAS A RECALL ISSUE, I FIGURED THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO AND HAVE ENDURED THE INCONVENIENCE EVER SINCE. I HAVE MET ANOTHER PERSON W/ A NEWER MODEL WRANGLER W/ SAME PROBLEM OF LEAKAGE VIA DASHBOARD. I HOPE THERE ARE OTHERS OUT THERE W/ SAME PROBLEM IN THE HOPES THAT CHRYSLER WILL RECOGNIZE THE SITUATION AND FIX IT. *AK
