 Description of the problemI have been smelling a strong gas odor while driving on the road especially when the tank is full. Today while parked in my driveway i noticed a puddle of gas under the car too. The puddle was under the left rear seat. After some research i found a very common problem with these cars seems to be the fuel pump under the rear seat (where my 6 and 7 year old kids sit). I pulled up the rear seat and found the pump is leaking through the electrical connector and large amount of gas is pooled on top of the pump!! I used dozens of paper towels to soak it up and it just kept coming out. The electrical connector is also brown/burned near a couple of the probes indicating the gas is causing a short within the plug!! I unplugged the connector and found that the gas is actually spewing out from inside the connector on the pump, where the prongs are. Researching online i see multiple of the same complaints that the plastic top of the pump cracks, and there is even a website that sells a metal cover to help protect the fuel pump cover! I see multiple people complaining about this very dangerous condition in chrysler vehicles and yet nothing is being done about it. The more research i
