It seems like a malfunction that may have to due with the f44 fuel pump and control module reprogramming recall. The fuel pump is in the module on the driver side of the vehicle and the fuel pressure regulator is in the module on the passenger side of vehicle. The engine was racing at 6000 rpms, while driving at 50 mph, there was a loud noise coming from the engine and a banging noise could be heard upon turning the steering wheel. Replaced both primary and secondary 3rd time. I have also noticed that at time when I step on the gas pedal my car does not seem to speed up. While discussing matter with Chrysler Corp. Do not let the dealer or auto part store tell you otherwise.
The module is also held in by a clip on the lower side. I ended up in the oncoming traffic lanes it was early; there were no cars at the time. The last e-mail they sent me said the answer would remain the same, which tells me there was a predetermined answer to my problem. However, on her way home, the malfunction indicator light illuminated again, the engine was racing and the entire vehicle jolted every time she shifted into, drive, park or reverse. The current mileage was 67,350 and failure mileage was 65,000.
Well, today is July 19th and my car is still at the dealer waiting for a part. I hope your hands are a little smaller than mine. I think I am being hosed. Always have to turn the key a second time. The problem is the left and right headlight is powered by the box, which cannot handle the load the factory lights put on the system. A year later, the fuel pump module was replaced once again.
It is possible, depending on fuel level and driving habit before diagnosing, to spill fuel over to the passenger side that might indeed show a lower resistance value than the driver side. I filed a complaint with the Chrysler customer assistance center on July 11th. Consumer requests reimbursement for a fuel pump replacement. Grasp the fuel filter and carefully pull it straight out of the retaining clamp. My Pacifica would not start right away when I first attempted to start it after it had been sitting over night, it would hesitate when I took off from a stop if I had been on a downhill incline and the gas gauge would drop to empty as soon as the tank was down to five-eighths full.
Always blow out all vents when did. When I fill it, it only takes about 7-10 gallons of fuel. Under federal warranty of 8 years or 80,000 miles. The vehicle was taken back to the dealers who replaced fuel pump module however the problem persists. Push the filter into the retaining clamp aligning the front lip on the filter into the groove. Once I removed the two screws I was able to wiggle the unit from the bottom and pull it straight out. This is a serious issue and just a matter of time before someone has an accident.
Recent incident says fuel vapor leak in gas tank. Since that night, the car has subsequently stalled twice while exhibiting the same problem of the gas gauge dropping down to almost empty. Decreased level of driving quality, poor general performance, suboptimal gas mileage, or exposure to possible unit failure are just some down sides of driving a vehicle with a defective component. Today, I went to my mechanic which is where I get gas too, and it would only take 4 gallons. After the replacement part, the engine stalling continued while cruising and the fuel gauge would drop down to low fuel. At 26,906 miles, the engine mount was replaced; at 48,062 miles, the blower motor was replaced; at 48,490 miles, the blend air door of the blower was replaced and the rear axle seals were replaced due to leaks; at 63,852 miles, the pvc valve, fuel pump, egr valve and battery were replaced and a short in the wiring to the alternator was repaired; at 65,479, the vehicle broke down and had to be towed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure.
At 25,893, the power transfer unit had to be removed and replaced after it was discovered that there was a leak in an input seal. He said this is the first case he has seen on this issue but I have found nearly 100 cases identical to mine on-line. The vehicle was not repaired. They attempted to flash mine to the latest update and didnt work, turns out that they need the re-flash from back when. I would greatly appreciate any help or advice you could provide.
Also both fuel pumps were faulty. Attach the fitting safety clips by snapping hem into place over the fittings. The pressure regulator inside the passenger side module regulates the pressure at 58 psi. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Right around 110-150 miles after a fill-up, my vehicle starts to shut off. I was told on the second trip to the dealership to document my mileage, how many gallons of gas I put into the tank, etc. The fuel gauge is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
What needs to be done is determined by the vehicle mileage and is set out in your owners manual. This is a major safety concern, what if this car stalls in an intersection etc. Insert fuel line disconnect toll T90T-9550-S into the quick-connect fittings on the fuel lines. The consumer stated prior to the replacement, she was not informed or notified of a recall, until a google search revealed the recall. Tighten the fuel filter bolts to 40 inch lbs.
