1 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 12/30/2019

It takes 20 minutes to put a few gallons of gas in. The gas pump keeps shutting off. I took it to be repaired, and the entire gas tank needs to be replaced. It cannot be serviced. Mileage approx. 40,000. Dealer says there have been 2 updates/redesigns of the gas tank due to this problem, but Chrysler will not provide repair assist because it is out of warranty.

2 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 11/15/2017

The heat shield that protects and separates the gas tank from muffler preventing the heat from the muffler to overheat the gas tank has fallen from the brackets that holds this safety / heat shield in place. This heat shield is extremely important preventing any heat to damage the gas tank directly above. The brackets that held up the heat shield appeared to be of very poor quality and would tend to fail from my observation. Without this heat shield it appears a gas tank fire could occur in hot environments or possibly at idle without any air movement to cool the space between the gas tank and muffler.
