WHEN MY JEEP WOULDN'T START, I HAD IT TOWED TO MY LOCAL DEALER (NORCO JEEP,POTTSTOWN,PA). THE FUEL PUMP HAD DRAWN SEDIMENT FROM THE TANK, AND BOTH HAD TO BE REPLACED, THE TANK WAS ON BACKORDER TILL 1/15. I RENTED A CAR TO GET TO WORK. I CALLED 1/14 TO CHECK, AND THE BACKORDER WAS NOW TILL 1/31. I CONTACTED OTHER DEALERS. ONE TOLD ME HE REPLACES DOZENS OF TANKS PER WINTER, AND ANOTHER SAID THE TANK HAD BEEN ON BACKORDER SINCE 9/2001. I CONTACTED JEEP BY E-MAIL (REF# 9538888). THEY ASKED TO CONTACT ME BY PHONE. I AGREED. ROBERT WEAVER HAD HIS PARTS DEPT LOCATE A SUITABLE TANK AND CONTACTED MY SVC MANAGER. HE WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A TANK IN THIS AREA, SO I PUT HIM IN TOUCH WITH JEEP IN MICHIGAN, WHO PUT HIM IN TOUCH WITH A PARTS OUTLET THERE, WHICH SHIPPED A TANK THAT PROVED TO BE UNSUITABLE. THE SVC MANAGER CONTACTED THE TANK SUPPLIER, AND THE NEW DELIVERY DATE HAD BEEN PUSHED BACK TO 2/8, AND THERE WERE OVER 135 FUEL TANKS ON ORDER FOR THIS MODEL!! THERE IS APPARENTLY A DESIGN FLAW THAT DOES NOT ALLOW FOR A FILTER TO BE PLACED BETWEEN THE TANK AND THE PUMP, THEREBY ALLOWING SEDIMENT TO FOUL THE PUMP. EVENTUALLY, THE DEALER DISCOVERED A SUITABLE WAY TO CLEAN MY TANK (WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN DONE THE DAY MY JEEP WAS TOWED). SINCE THE FUEL PUMP HAS A 12-MO 12,000 MI WARRANTY, I DECIDED TO CUT MY LOSSES AND HAVE THEM PERFORM THE PROCEDURE. TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, THE FUEL TANK HAS NEVER BEEN DELIVERED. THERE WERE 3 OTHER JEEPS AT MY DEALER AWAITING TANKS WHEN MINE WAS TOWED IN. I HAVE DRIVEN OVER 3 MILLION MILES IN MY LIFE, MOSTLY IN CHRYSLER PRODUCTS, AND I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A FUEL TANK THAT DIDN'T HAVE A HOLE IN IT. I STILL OWN A 1968 PLYMOUTH GTX WITH OVER 300,000 MILES THAT HAS NEVER HAD THE TANK REPLACED. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A FLAW IN THE DESIGN, AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY $1530.00 AND MISS TIME FROM WORK (1.5 DAYS) DUE TO A POOR DESIGN. I FINALLY GOT MY CAR BACK 1/24-20 DAYS AFTER IT WAS TOWED. THIS FLAW SHOULD BE A RECALL, AND I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED.*AK
