The fuel filler neck on a 2000 Dodge stratus broke away from the body. It was noticed while refueling and the gas was spilling onto the ground instead of going into the tank. That was in November and the car has not been fixed yet because the part has been backordered. I am not complaining because of the inconvenience of not having a car for almost three months, but rather because if the part has been backordered for months then this appears to be a common problem, and since it"s related to the fuel system, a dangerous one.

Fuel filler tube and gas tank connection. Fuel filler tube rubs on bottom under carriage above the rear axel causing a hole in the flexible tube causing a hole which we ordered last August and still is back ordered. This also caused the gas tank where the tube enters also to fail because of the constant pressure above the axel.
