2 Fuel Hoses Lines/piping And Fittings problem of the 2004 Dodge Caravan

Failure Date: 02/01/2010

This complaint is for a 2004 Dodge Caravan the problem occurs when the gas tank is filled. The vehicle stalls and runs rough for several miles and sometimes many more. I believe the defect is the liquid/vapor valve built into the top of the fuel tank. It fails and allows fuel into the evac canister and vapor lines which could explode or cause a fire as they are not designed to hold gasoline. Chrysler seems to care less. I'm sure when people start to burn to death something will be done. Thank you.

3 Fuel Hoses Lines/piping And Fittings problem of the 1999 Dodge Caravan

Failure Date: 08/23/2008

1999 Dodge Caravan with approx 195,000 miles. Plastic fuel line attached to gas tank experienced spontaneous rupture and spewed gasoline onto muffler. I noted a trail of liquid coming from vehicle when backed out of drive. Stopped and looked under vehicle to see gasoline pouring out and onto hot muffler. Car turned off in middle of the street and emergency exited vehicle to begin removing contents in fear of explosion. Dodge reports no recall and to replace fuel line entire gas tank needs replacement at cost of $530 for just the part. This could have been a catastrophic incident if I had not noted the liquid trails before the muffler heated up more. When moving the car out of the street, the driver door was damaged as the engine was off and control was difficult.

6 Fuel Hoses Lines/piping And Fittings problem of the 1997 Dodge Caravan

Failure Date: 07/01/2003

I have a broken fuel line on my '1997 Dodge Caravan,3. 0l engine. This is the exact same fuel line problem that Dodge had a recall on in the 3. 3 and 3. 8l engine on all 1997 Dodge Caravans , recalled I think November, 2000. I went to my local dealer to have the problem fixed, but they refused to honor the recall repair because I had a 3. 0 engine. The problem is the same. I think Dodge should take care of the repair as well as recall these engines too. All engine sizes on this make and model for the year 1997 should be looked at. My mother-in-law was driving the vehicle at the time the fuel line erupted. The Mini van could have caught fire. The fuel sprayed all over the engine.
