2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN 4X2 Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN 4X2. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE FUELING THE TANK, A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FUEL WOULD SPEW OUT OF THE TANK. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

TAKATA RECALL HAS NOT BEEN CHANGED AND IVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT CHANGED. ALSO IM SMELLING GAS ON THE INSIDE OF MY TRUCK AND I HAVE A TWO WEEK OLD BABY.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN 4X2. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V313000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

AT TIME OF FILL UP, WHEN THE PUMP STOPS FULL SPEWS OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER NECK. IT HAS BEEN THIS WAY SINCE WE PURCHASED THE CAR AND WHEN I BROUGHT THIS TO THE SALES MANAGERS ATTENTION HE PLAYED IT OFF AS NO BIG DEAL. HE DID OFFER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO PURCHASE TO HAVE THE CAR "FIXED" SO IT WOULDN'T SPEW FUEL ON THE GROUND OR PERSON PUMPING GAS. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THIS HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED IN A RECALL.

ENGINE STALLS CONSISTENTLY WITH FULL TANK OF GAS. SAME PROBLEM OTHER CHRYSLERS HAVE WITH EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS SYSTEM VALVE. *TR

NONE OF THE AIRBAGS ENGAGED. THIS WAS A ACCIDENT THAT HIT A SEMI IN THE FRONT OF CAR. THE WHOLE ENGINE WAS CRUMBLED. NUMEROUS BROKEN BONES FROM HEAD TO CHEST TO KNEE. *TR

MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY 2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN BEGAN TO SMOKE FROM THE ENGINE. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED IN TO THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE HAD SEIZED UP. I ONLY HAD 55000 MILES ON THE TRUCK WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE. I HAD THE TRUCK FULLY SERVICED 2 DAYS BEFORE AS WE WERE OUT OF TOWN. I HAVE BEEN DOING A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH ALL TYPES OF DODGE AND CHRYSLER ENGINES. *TR

GASOLINE DISCHARGED (APPROXIMATELY 1/4 GALLON) OUT OF FUEL FILLER AFTER GASOLINE FILLER NOZZLE SHUTS OFF AT FILL-UP WHEN TANK REACHES CAPACITY. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL GAS PUMPS, NOT A SPECIFIC STATION. MANY ATTENDANTS AT GAS STATIONS HAVE STATED THAT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS FUEL GETS ON THE GROUND AND ON THE PERSON FUELING. *TR

GASOLINE DISCHARGED OUT OF FUEL FILLER AFTER GASOLINE FILLER NOZZLE SHUTS OFF AT FILL-UP. GAS SPILL AT EACH FILL-UP IS SIGNIFICANT. *TR

WHEN FUELING AT ANY STATION FUEL BLOWS OUT THE TANK EVERYWHERE, ABOUT A HALF A GALLON. IT GETS ON THE PERSON FUELING AND THE GROUND, BUT ONLY WHEN FILLED UP UNTIL THE PUMP CUTS OFF. *KB
