ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
THE HELENA CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP MADE ALL REPAIRS TO THE FUEL RAIL. THERE WAS A FUEL LEAK FROM THE FUEL RAIL--THE FUEL RAIL WAS REPLACED AS WELL AS "O" RINGS AND GASKETS. I DID CONTACT THE CHRYSLER CORP. HOWEVER THEY SAID THEY WERE UNABLE TO HELP ME AND REFUSED TO COMMENT ON THE EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE. AND AT THE TIME OF THE PHONE CALL APRIL, 1998 I HAD TO TAKE MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THE SAME 'O' RINGS AND GASKETS REPLACED BECAUSE THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKETS FAILED. I CALLED TO FIND OUT IF THERE HAD BEEN ANY RECALLS FOR MY CAR AND IF ANY WERE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUEL RAIL. AT THAT TIME THERE WASN'T A RECALL. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE AND IF I CAN BE REFUNDED ANY MONEY FOR REPAIRS THAT WOULD BE GREAT!!

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
THIS PROBLEM IS RECONIZED ON THIS SITE AS A RECALL ON BOTH THE 3.3L AS WELL AS THE 3.5L ENGINES. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THE DEALER STATES THAT THEY WILL NOT FIX THE CAR BECAUSE IT IS NOT ON RECALL YET. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A 597 DOLLAR CHARGE. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE FUEL IS LEAKING ON THE ENGINE. I TOOK A PRINTED REPORT FROM THIS WEBSITE TO THE DEALER SHOWING THE RECALL, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM AT A LOSS AT TO WHAT TO DO. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO FIX SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE FIXED FOR FREE UNDER THE RECALL, AND I CANNOT BE WITHOUT MY VEHICLE. PLEASE ADVISE ME AT TO WHAT TO DO NOW.
