What owners report
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 DODGE INTREPID. WHEN THE CONTACT ENTERED THE VEHICLE, A FUEL ODOR WAS DETECTED. THE CONTACT LIFTED THE HOOD AND NOTICED THE ODOR AS WELL AS FUEL LEAKING FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW MANIFOLD NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 129,000.
I OWN AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND I HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLES MORE THAN ONCE AND CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW DODGE IS GETTING AWAY WITH NOT RECALLING THESE VEHICLES FOR A FUEL LEAK ON THE PRESSURE LINE AT THE BACK OF THE ENGINE. IT HAS A STEEL LINE THAT COMES FROM THE TANK UP TO THE ENGINE AND THE LAST APPROX. 8 INCHES TURNS TO PLASTIC. THE PLASTIC PART CRACKS AFTER TIME AND IT SPRAYS FUEL ONTO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WHICH SEEMS TO ME THAT SHOULD FALL UNDER A RECALL. IF YOU SEARCH THE INTERNET YOU WILL SEE THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THE VEHICLE I HAVE HERE CAME IN DOING THIS AND I COULDN'T FIND ANY RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I DO BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A
CAR WON'T GO INTO PARK. HAS TO BE STARTED IN NEUTRAL. CAR HAS TENDENCY TO ROLL. WHEEL(S) HAS TO BE BLOCKED. STATIONARY.
AS I SAT IN MY CAR TO DRIVE, THE DRIVER'S SEAT LEANED BACK UNEXPECTEDLY. IT CAN NOT BE RAISED. I HAVE A BUCKET AND BOX BEHIND THE SEAT TO HOLD IT IN PLACE, BUT IT IS STILL NOT IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.
