Other Fuel System Pump problems of the 2008 Chrysler Aspen

Two problems related to other fuel system pump have been reported for the 2008 Chrysler Aspen. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 07/05/2017

Having a problem with the vehicle stalling after refueling with gas. Vehicle will stutter and stall within a couple of minutes. This is dangerous as the stall occurs while driving and you lose steering control of the vehicle. Neither a dealer or private mechanic can get a clear indication as to what is causing the issue. Fuel pump relay(March 2017) and egr valve(July 2017) have both been replaced and problem is still occurs. Vehicle runs fine after sitting for a while but stalls after refueling. Our vehicle has been in the shop since July 5. We got it back on July 19 and when we put gas in it , it died again and had to be towed back the same night to the shop who had just replaced the egr valve.

2 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 04/30/2015

The problem started off with everytime I pump gas and fill the tank, as soon as you remove the pump the gas spews out all over the place. This happened several times at several different gas stations. Suddenly on April 30, 2015 the truck died and would not start. It will cut on and attempt to start but would not stay on. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership and was told that the fuel pump is bad. Funny thing you can't seem to find the fuel pump almost anywhere!!! the Chrysler manufacturer and mopar parts do not have this particular one needed in stock. This seems to be a problem with many of the Chrysler Aspen and the manufacturer should do a recall on this issue!!!.
