Lutz, FL
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
AN ARTICLE RELEASED BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ON 12/31/98 INDICATED THAT CHRYSLER WAS AWARE OF A PROBLEM WITH THE O-RINGS INSTALLED ON THE FUEL INJECTORS OF THE V-6 (3.3L) ENGINES MANUFACTURED IN 1993. THEY INDICATED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME OCCURRANCES OF FIRE DUE TO FUEL LEAKS CAUSED BY THIS HARDENED O-RING. MY VEHICLE IS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. FUEL IS LEAKING FROM AROUND THE BASE OF THE FUEL INJECTOR CAUSING FUEL TO POOL UP ON TOP OF THE ENGINE WHICH IS A DEFINITE FIRE HAZARD AND ALSO A HEALTH HAZARD CAUSED BY THE AMOUNT OF FUMES. I WOULD LIKE THIS RESEARCHED TO SEE IF THE RECALL SHOULD HAVE BEEN EXTENDED TO INCLUDE 1994 3.3L V-6 ENGINES AS WELL. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF THIS PROBLEM IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS. IT HAS BEEN FORTUNATE THAT NO FIRE RESULTED FROM THIS FAILURE. PLEASE ADVISE ME IF THERE IS MORE INFORMATION I CAN SUPPLY IN REFERENCE TO THIS REQUEST.
