1992 Dodge Dynasty Fuel system Problems

THE MOST RECENT FAILURE WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING UP A VERY CURVY ROAD (HWY 101) IN OREGON. THE TEMPERATURE WAS NOT OVERLY WARM, THE CAR HAD ONLY BEEN DRIVEN 20 MILES OR SO THAT MORNING. I WAS USING THE AIR CONDITIONER OFF AND ON SO AS NOT TO HAVE THE WINDOWS OPEN. WE REACHED THE CREST AND WHEN STARTING DOWN, THE ENGINE DIED WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS RELEASED AND BRAKES APPLIED, AND THE POWER STEERING STOPPED. I MANAGED TO BREAK TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS TOWED TO TOWN. THE NEXT MORNING WHEN THE MECHANIC'S OPENED, THEY STARTED THE CAR AND IT DIDN'T FAIL AFTER 20 MILES OF DRIVING THE SAME TERRAIN, AND WE RETURNED HOME (90 MILES OR SO) WITHOUT A PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL PREVIOUS OCCASIONS, INTERMITTENTLY, MONTHS MAY GO BY, THEN WITHOUT WARNING, USUALLY WHEN REMOVING MY FOOT FROM THE GAS, THE CAR LOSES POWER AND DIES. IT HAS ALWAYS STARTED UP AGAIN IMMEDIATELY EXCEPT FOR THE LATEST INCIDENT. THE FORMER OWNER OF THIS CAR SAID THIS ALSO HAPPENED TO HIM. HE SEEMS TO THINK ADDING A FUEL CLEANER TO THE GAS HELPS PREVENT OCCURRENCES. MECHANICS SAY IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND THE CAUSE IF IT'S RUNNING. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I'LL BE LOOKING FOR A NEWER VEHICLE. *NM

AFTER NORMAL SERVICING ON THE FUEL RAIL ON MY 1992 DODGE DYNASTY 3.3LV6, THE NON-REPLACEABLE SEALS IN THE CROSSOVER TUBE AT THE END OF THE FUEL RAIL BEGAN LEAKING. THIS IS THE SAME LEAK FIXED IN RECALL CAMPAIGN 00V268000 FOR THE DODGE CARAVAN 3.3L V6, HOWEVER MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP COULD NOT PROVIDE ME WITH THE SEALS THAT ARE USED TO REPAIR THIS LEAK. THROUGH MUCH INVESTIGATION ON THE INTERNET, I HAVE FOUND MANY INSTANCES OF OTHER OWNERS OF DODGE/CHRYSLER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME 3.3L/3.8L V6 ENGINES THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME ISSUE, AND FEEL THAT THIS RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO COVER ALL MAKES AND MODELS SHIPPED WITH THIS ENGINE AND FUEL-RAIL COMBINATION. *LA

MY FRIEND AND I HAVE CARS THAT DODGE MADE. MY IS THE 1992 DYNASTY AND HERS IS THE 1993 DODGE VAN. WELL THIS YEAR WE BOTH STARTING GETTING LEAKS IN OUR FUEL RAIL WHICH WE WERE TOLD THAT DODGE KNEW AND THAT THEY RECALLED SOME BUT NOT ON THE DYNASTY AND ONLY SOME VANS. I FEEL THAT IF THIS IS A MANUFACTURE PROBLEM THEN THEY SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FIXING OF THE PROBLEM AND NOT US. MY CAR CAUGHT FIRE BECAUSE OF THIS PUTTING ALL OF US IN DANGER IN THE CAR.*AK
