FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ASPEN HAS ONLY 16000 MILES AND HAS A HORRIBLE PROBLEM OF BURPING FUEL OUT OF THE TANK WHEN FILLING UP AT WHAT EVER PRESSURE ONE HOLDS THE NOZZLE. EVERY TIME TANK IS FILLED IT DUMPS OUT 1 TO 2 GALLONS OF FULL ON MYSELF AND THE BODY OF THE CAR AS WELL AS ON THE GROUND. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO CHRYSLER ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUE YET A TSB HAS BEEN ISSUED BY CHRYSLER THEM SELVES ACKNOWLEDGING THE PROBLEM AND THE SOLUTION FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. TSB 14-001-12 CLASSIFYING IT AS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BULLETIN. ACKNOWLEDGING THAT CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BEING A STUCK FLAPPER IN THE GAS TANK. CHRYSLER IS NOT WANTING TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM IN MY VEHICLE SAYING THAT THEY DON'T HAVE A SPECIFIC RECALL NOTED AND THAT THE TSB BULLETIN IS FOR THERE OWN TECHS AND NOT FOR CUSTOMER AWARENESS. EVERY TIME I OR MY WIFE FILL THE TANK IN THE ASPEN WHILE TRAVELING OR LOCALLY I GET AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF FUEL BACK SPRAYED AND SPEWED ON ME AND MY CLOTHS REQUIRING ME TO STAY AWAY FROM ANY SPARKS, FIRE OR IGNITIONS OF ANY SORT TILL I REMOVE MY CLOTHING AND THEN SHOWER OFF THE GASOLINE. I COULD REALLY USE HELP IN GETTING THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE RESOLVE FOR AND MY WIFE. I HAVE ON HAND LETTERS TO CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CLEARLY STATING THAT THE FUEL INLET CHECK VALVE HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO INCLUDE EXTENDED LIFETIME WARRANTY IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A COPY OF.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SUSPENSION
DASH IS STILL ILLUMINATED, RADIO TURNS ON BY ITSELF AND CAN'T LOCK DOORS WITH THE CAR TURN TO OFF POSITION AND KEY OUT OF IGNITION. CAR DOOR CONTINUES DINGING NOISE AS IF KEY IS IN POSITION. DRAINS THE BATTERY. WHEN YOU GIVE THE BATTERY A CHARGE THE CAR WILL CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE BATTERY IS TOO WEAK. WE REPLACED THE BATTERY 3 TIMES IN ONE YEAR. CHRYSLER DEALER CANNOT FIND THE ISSUE. THEY STATE THE ASPEN IS KNOWN TO HAVE DRAIN BATTERIES QUICKLY. YOU CAN DRIVE OVER A SMALL BUMP OR POT HOLE AND CAR WILL JUMP ACROSS THE ROAD. PLACED BRAND NEW TIRES AND CAR IS ALIGNED PERFECTLY BUT STILL MAKES THE CAR JUMP. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE CAR WILL MOVE TO ANOTHER PERSON'S DRIVING LANE ON DUAL HIGHWAY WHEN HITTING A BUMP. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR ANYONE AND SCARES MY FAMILY. ONE DAY, IF WE HIT A BUMP, I MIGHT SIDE SWIPE/CRASH INTO A PASSING CAR OR ROLLOVER OFF THE ROAD.

AIR BAGS
AIRBAG LIGHT CONTINUALLY APPEARED AND BEEPED. TOOK THE ASPEN TO THE DEALER, OLIVER JOSEPH TWICE. THE FIRST TIME WAS 1/22/15. THE SERVICE CENTER TOLD MYSELF AND MY WIFE THEY COULD NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, AND COULD NOT REPAIR. I THEN CALLED CHRYSLER CORP CUSTOMER SERVICE ON 2/03/15, AND THEY TOOK NOTE OF THE SITUATION. I NEVER HEARD BACK FROM CHRYSLER AND CALLED BACK ON 3/26/15 AND THEY NOTIFIED ME OF THE AIRBAG RECALL, AND SINCE MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS CONTINUALLY ON AND BEEPING, THEY WILL MAKE SURE I HAVE PRIORITY WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. I AM WRITING THIS COMPLAINT ON 7/31/15 AND HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM ANYONE. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR MY WIFE'S SAFETY WITH THE RECALL AND THE FACT THIS LIGHT IS EMITTED FROM UNKNOWN ORIGIN. CHRYSLER HAS RECORD OF ALL MY CALLS.

STEERING, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN AUGUST 2010. IT IS A 2007 CHRYSLER ASPEN. I HAD IT JUST A FEW MONTHS AND I WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE STEERING. I AM GOOD DRIVER AND DROVE TO WORK EACH DAY WITHOUT ISSUE. I WENT TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND HE ADVISED THE TIE ROD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HE HAS BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR YEARS AND NOTED HOW ODD IT IS THAT A NEWER VEHICLE WOULD NEED A TIE ROD REPLACEMENT. HE HAD NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. IT COST OVER $500 TO GET IT REPLACED. HE SAID HAD I DRIVEN IT JUST A FEW MORE DAYS THE WHOLE FRONT WOULD HAVE BROKEN CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I ALSO HAD AN ISSUE IN 2012 WITH A EMISSION SENSOR AND MY GAS TANK.

SUSPENSION
A " SNAPPING " OR " POPPING " NOISE DEVELOPED IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION WHEN GOING AROUND A CORNER AT ~ 30 MPH. IT WAS MORE PRONOUNCED WHEN GOING OVER SMALL TO MODERATE BUMPS. BOTH THE CHRYSLER DEALER AND AN INDEPENDENT GARAGE SAID IT NEEDED NEW UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS. I HAD THEM REPLACED AND THE NOISE IS STILL THERE. NO ONE CAN FIND THE SOURCE OF THIS NOISE. I AM CONCERNED THERE IS A MAJOR DEFECT AND IT WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO AN ACCIDENT. THE 2009 CHRYSLER ASPEN WAS RECENTLY PUT ON A BUYBACK LIST FOR SUSPENSION TROUBLES. BOTH THE 2007 AND 2008 ASPENS ARE THE SAME AS THE 2009. I AM CURIOUS AS TO WHY THE 2008 AND 2007 WEREN'T INCLUDED ON THIS LIST.
