EA98007; FUEL INJECTION ASSEMBLY LEAKAGE; OWNER COULD SMELL A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND FOUND FUEL TO BE LEAKING FROM THE FUEL RAIL SYSTEM. THE FUEL RAIL IS BEING REPLACED. *AK

SAME PROBLEM DISCRIBED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #: 98V18400. THE NEW YORKER MODEL APPEARS TO BE THE ONLY MODEL WITH THE 3.5L ENGINE NOT CITED IN THIS RECALL THIS MUST BE AN OVERSIGHT. PLEASE RECTIFY AND INCLUDE THE NEW YORKER MODEL. THANK YOU

EA98007; FUEL INJECTION ASSEMBLY LEAKAGE. FUEL IS LEAKING FROM THE FUEL RAIL. THE FUEL RAIL WAS REPLACED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER IS NOT AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AT THIS TIME. *AK

FROM WHAT THE DEALER SERVICE REP TOLD ME THERE ARE MULTIPLE FUEL LEAKS ALONG THE FUEL INJECTOR RAIL WHICH IS CAUSING GASOLINE TO LEAK. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE AND FOUND THIS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE EAGLE VISION (1993) VEHICLE. THIS CAR HAS THE SAME ENGINE AS THE NEW YORKER (1994). THE EAGLE WAS RECALLED TO FIX THAT PROBLEM. ALSO I HAVE RESEARCHED THE COMPLAINT DATABASE AND FOUND THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM MANY TIMES ON THE NEW YORKER AND LHS. WHY HAVEN'T THESE VEHICLES BEEN RECALLED TO FIX THIS DEADLY PROBLEM?

THE FRONT SEAT TRACKS HAVE PLASTIC INSERTS IN THEM. THEY HAVE BROKEN OUT OF THE TRACKS AND HAVE BEEN FOUND ON THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES. I STARTED FINDING THESE BLACK PLASTIC INSERTS WHEN THE CAR WAS IN ITS SECOND YEAR OF OWNERSHIP. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD NOT HAD ANY REPORTS OF THIS TYPE, AND WOULD NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY REPAIRS. THE SEATS HAVE BECOME UNSTABLE ON THE TRACKS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE INSERTS TOOK UP SLACK BETWEEN THE UPPER AND LOWER HALF OF THE SEAT TRACKS. THE SEATS WILL ACTUALLY ROCK ON THEIR TRACKS. I QUESTION THE SAFETY OF THESE SEATS WITHOUT THE INSERTS IN THEM!

PLASTIC FUEL RAIL LEAKING FUEL ONTO HOT EXHAUST AND ENGINE. WHERE THE FUEL PRESSURE TEST PORT ATTACHES TO THE RAIL ALLOWS PLASTIC TUBE TO MOVE AND FLEX CAUSING LEAKAGE AT RAIL.

EA98007, FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY LEAKAGE; WHEN VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT AUTO REPAIR SHOP FOR AIR CONDITIONING SERVICE, MECHANIC NOTICED A LARGE FUEL LEAK ON TOP OF MOTOR. THE FUEL RAIL SYSTEM HAS BEEN REPLACED AT OWNER'S EXPENSE. *AK

WHILE DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION WOULD GO INTO LOW. OWNER HAS HAD VEHICLE REPAIRED FOR TRANSMISSION, AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. DEALER NOTIFIED. *AK
