WE TRIED TO TALK TO THEM LAST APRIL ABOUT A ISSUE WITH MY GAS TANK AND IT NOT CLOSING LIKE IT SHOULD AND THAT IT WAS ON A RECALL AND WHEN THIS WAS PRESENTED TO THEM THEY PRETTY MUCH WANTED TO MAKE US HELP PAY FOR IT WHICH UPSET ME WHEN WE HAVE THE CLIP FROM THE PAPER ABOUT THE RECALL. IT IS TERRIBLE WHEN I GO TO THE GAS STATION AND I HAVE TO WATCH MY GAS TANK AND AM NERVOUS ABOUT IT SPRAYING ALL OVER ME WHICH IT HAS DONE TO ME. AND I AM SORRY BUT THAT IS NOT OKAY AND HOW WASTEFUL IS THAT AND THAT IS DANGEROUS FOR IT TO BE ON THE GROUND LIKE THATWHEN I START MY VEHICLE.

I COULD USE SOME HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM AND I FEEL LIKE THIS IS NOT GOOD CUSTOMER AT ALL ON CHRYSLERS PART. I HEARD CHRYSLER HAS BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT TO ME THIS IS REALLY BAD. I KNOW THAT ALOT OF CAR FACTORIES ARE STRUGGLING BUT THIS IS NOT HOW TO DO GOOD BUSINESS AND I WILL NOT BUY ANYMORE VEHICLES FROM THEM IF THEY TREAT THERE CUSTOMERS POORLY AND UNFAIRLY.
