: the contact stated while driving at 40 mph, the fuel gauge displayed a faulty reading. The gauge indicated a quarter tank of fuel was available however the vehicle had ran out of fuel. The fuel gauge completely failed to function. The service dealer and manufacturer were notified.
My vehicle has run rough, idling rough, "bucking", losing coolant and dripping from the tailpipe about a week after the extended warranty expired. I have had major valve train problems and had to have the camshaft replaced along with the gasket, cylinder head, core return, radiator and now the latest is oil pressure gauge sending unit. Oil pressure still showing zero even after replacing sending unit!
While traveling on the highway without prior warning the vehicle shut down. The gauges malfunctioned (gas read empty), the vehicle jerked uncontrollably. Different mechanics were unable to duplicate the problem. The transmission leaked (there was pink fluid in the battery area), the belt pulley had fallen off and the vehicle overheated, and the battery failed.
The fuel gauge failed. The consumer had come across some information relating to a recall for this vehicle. The consumer contacted Chrysler and was informed that there was a recall, however, his vehicle was not included due to the VIN.
Fuel level sending unit indicates significantly more fuel in reserve than actually present. Recall 97 V 194 000 has been issued on vehicle make and model. However, this vehicle was not included due to the VIN.
