RECALL 96V099/ABS BRAKES. VEHICLE HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES FOR RECALL REPAIRS. *AK

THE FUEL RAIL HAS A HAIRLINE CRACK AND IS LEAKING,CREATING A VERY HAZARDOUS SITUATION EXACTLY LIKE THE LHS MODELS WHICH WERE COVERED BY RECALL AND LISTED ON YOUR WEB SITE. NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 98V184000. THE IMPERIAL MODEL IS THE LHS'S PREDECESSOR.THE COST OF THE REPAIR IS $540.00. I DO NOT THINK A FUEL LINE IS A PLANNED OBSELECENSE ITEM. CHRYSLER HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH FUEL RAILS. I FEEL THE IMPERIAL SHOULD BE COVERED JUST AS THE LHS WAS SINCE THE PROBLEM APPARENTLY BEGAN WITH THE IMPERIALS. I HAVE REQUESTED THE OLD PART FROM THE DEALER. ALSO NOTE ON YOUR CONSUMER COMPLAINT SITE ODI ID: 832841REGARDING THE SAME LEAKING PROBLEM. I APPRECIATE YOUR HELP IN THIS MATTER. *AK

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY RANDOM SPEED VEHICLE HAS INCREASING STOPPING DISTANCE, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR .*AK
