Description of the problem | I have a 2016 dodge journey about a month ago ran over a large rain puddle while turning in to get some gas. Filled up and as i'm driving off abs, brake, and the swerving car signal kept coming on. My fuel gauge reader went all the way down to empty and the speedometer would go up and down random times while driving. Couple days later we had took it in to get checked out was told my fuel sensor went out and needed to get a new fuel pump because the sensor was inside of it. Had it fixed after waiting two days from our car guy drove it off the repair shop and not even hours later the same issue. Was told i had warranty on fuel pump purchased from dealership and they would replace it again. I took it to dealership and was told needed a new fuel pump and they were going to charge me 135 per error code and then would tell me what additionally needed to be fixed and that i would have to leave the car for up to a week. The car was just purchased in aug 2018 and it has under 54k miles on it. While driving the car at any given time all the lights continue to come on. The car stopped on me in the middle of the highway. It gave out on me in the center highway and i had to wait for emergency serveces to assist me it took 2 hours and this was at 7 am in the morning on 610/10 freeway in houston, tx the car has given out on me twice now and ive replaced the battery twice. Whatever is the issue continues to kill the battery power and i can't find any mechanic including the dealership to fix what the problem is, but they want to charge me for randomn work that does nothing to fix the issue. |
