The fuel pump on our 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan had to be replaced due to cracks and leaks which left a strong fuel odor along with the loss of gasoline. The fuel pump should have lasted at least 100,000 miles but it did not. When I searched online, I found that quite a few owners of the same vehicle had this problem. The sub par parts are costly to replace, especially when considering it was no fault of the owners.
I was driving along at 70 mph on the freeway. Car sputtered and died. I was able to get it to the side of the road before losing all hydraulics, thankfully. It was determined by the local Dodge dealer that my fuel pump had failed and that the van ran out of gas. My gas gauge was giving a false reading. They are replacing fuel pump. We'll see if this problem surfaces again. I hope not. This was distressing to me because, if I wasn't able to get to the side of the freeway, I would have lost all power control over braking and steering. The dealer told me this was a "vendor" problem with the faulty part.
