HOW A VEHICLE THAT ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 22,900 MILES ON IT AND WAS BOUGHT NEW CAN BE TAKEN TO THE SHOP OVER 16 TIMES ALREADY WITH MAJOR ISSUES. AT 1,734 MILES THE RADIATOR HOSE/OUTLETS/INJECTOR FUEL HAD TO BE REPLACED, AT 7,749 MILES AND SEVERAL TRIPS REPLACED PADS, DISC BRAKES, ROTORS (BOTH SIDES) AFTER FINDING BREAK LINE OFF FROM FACTORY, AT 12,275 MILES REPLACED PRIME PUMP/GASKET/SPACER, AT 12,913 MILES REPLACED BOTH SWAY BARS AND BUSHINGS/GLASS & REGULATOR ON PASSENGER FRONT DOOR, AT 17,163 MILES REPLACED POWER STEERING HOSE, AT 17,812 MILES HAD TO REPLACE ROTORS & BRAKES BOTH SIDES (3RD SET ON VEHICLE), AT 20,662 REPLACED COWL CLIP/SEALED UP FRONT WINDSHIELD/REPLACED SWAY BAR(3RD SET ON VEHICLE), AT 20,900 REPLACED HOSE/VAPOR CANISTER. AT 22,422 REPLACED SOP/COWL PANEL. THE ABOVE ISSUES HAVE ALL BEEN DONE DURING THE DATES 04-07-03 TO 07-20-05. OUR CONCERN IS IF ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS HAVE COME IN ON THE SAME ISSUE OR IS IT POSSIBLE THIS IS JUST A BAD VEHICLE. IT SEEMS TO BE IN THE SHOP EVERY 2 TO 3 MONTHS. ALSO, SINCE THE BRAKES/ROTORS/SWAY BAR CONTINUE TO BE REPLACED OUR CONCERN IT THAT SOMETIME IT MAY FAIL AND RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH. SEEMS THE PIECES THAT ARE BEING REPLACED HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES, MAKING US QUESTION IF SOMETHING ON THE VEHICLE IS OFF IN THE BUILDING OF THIS VEHICLE TO CAUSE SUCH WEAR AND TEAR ON MAIN ITEMS THAT YOU USE TO STEER AND MOVE THE VEHICLE WITH. THE OLD PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, WE DID TRY TO ASK THE DEALER FOR THE OLD BRAKES BUT WAS ADVISED THEY COULD NOT GIVE AS THEY NEED TO HAVE A EVIDENCE TO GET THE 1ST SET PAID FOR AND THE 2ND SET WAS SET UP FOR US TO PAY A PORTION OF THE BILL. *NM

DP14002 · Engine Stall After Refueling

Opened Sep 5, 2014 · Closed Apr 6, 2015

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Fuel System, Gasoline:storage:tank Assembly

This defect petition evaluates July 7, 2014 allegations from an owner of a model year (MY) 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan minivan that engine stall occurs in these vehicles without warning after refueling.The petitioner's vehicle is a Chrysler RS platform minivan.The RS platform includes MY 2003 through 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan, Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Town and Country and Chrysler Voyager minivans.NHTSA evaluated the petition by analyzing consumer complaints submitted to the Agency, analyzing field data, reviewing technical information provided in Chrysler's response to an Agency information request and testing an RS minivan identified by its owner as experiencing post-refuel engine stalls.After completing this evaluation, NHTSA has concluded that further investigation is unlikely to result in a finding that a defect related to motor vehicle safety exists.The stalls occurring in these vehicles only occur immediately after filling up the fuel tank and happen at low engine speeds. The failure rate is low, even after 8 to 13 years of the vehicles being in service, and there are no reports of crashes or injuries resulting from the stall condition.In the Agency's view, additional investigation is unlikely to result in finding the existence of a safety-related defect in the subject vehicles.Given the need to allocate and prioritize NHTSA's limited resources to best accomplish the Agency's safety mission, the petition is denied.This action does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist. The Agency will take further action if warranted by future circumstances. More details concerning our review can be found in the Federal Register Notice for this action.The following 161 VOQs are included in the petition evaluation: 10209242, 10229468, 10240708, 10260923, 10275939, 10276532, 10296487, 10298175, 10328669, 10330144, 10346517, 10349789, 10354758, 10363689, 10372112, 10372368, 10372514, 10378031, 10379764, 10382938, 10387448, 10394063, 10398877, 10413918, 10418652, 10420924, 10427063, 10437525, 10445392, 10446902, 10470028, 10471249, 10473733, 10502231, 10503114, 10504260, 10509862, 10511988, 10512120, 10512385, 10512650, 10513147, 10538154, 10549841, 10551763, 10555188, 10555418, 10556754, 10565367, 10574012, 10574398, 10586555, 10587212, 10587559, 10593433, 10607841, 10607913, 10608922, 10615810, 10622468, 10628141, 10632112, 10632128, 10632172, 10632175, 10632231, 10632262, 10632266, 10632270, 10632305, 10632316, 10632326, 10632370, 10632385, 10632399, 10632492, 10632542, 10632765, 10632833, 10632928, 10633197, 10633281, 10633409, 10633421, 10633483, 10633507, 10637752, 10637804, 10637950, 10637975, 10638032, 10638289, 10638290, 10638401, 10638968, 10639218, 10639623, 10641157, 10641603, 10641614, 10641836, 10644339, 10644705, 10649713, 10649895, 10649932, 10650313, 10652590, 10653147, 10653783, 10654533, 10655226, 10658900, 10659679, 10660320, 10662588, 10662645, 10662662, 10663473, 10667056, 10667437, 10668081, 10668094, 10668131, 10668612, 10668969, 10668970, 10669584, 10669678, 10669729, 10669775, 10669866, 10669895, 10669992, 10670422, 10670506, 10676348, 10676732, 10677120, 10679795, 10679934, 10680057, 10680290, 10680342, 10680714, 10681512, 10682584, 10682906, 10683022, 10683114, 10683549, 10683620, 10683697, 10683743, 10689898, 10690761, 10691284, 10691556, 10691751, 10693061, 10694300
