1995 CHRYSLER NEW YORKER

I RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE (OCTOBER 2016) FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER WHO HAD IT UP UNTIL NOW. WE SMELLED GAS COMING IN THE VENTS WHEN IDLING AND WARMING UP. WE SAW VAPORS COMING OUT FROM THE HOOD AND THE STRONG GAS SMELL WAS CLEARLY INJECTOR LEAKING SOMEWHERE ON THE ENGINE AND COMING INTO THE CAB. WE TOOK IT TO A LOCAL AUTO DEALER AND THEY AGREED IMMEDIATELY WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND EXPLAIN IT WAS FAULTY FUEL LINE BY CHRYSLER.

Mileage: 123,800

MY CAR HAD A RECALL ON IT, AND WHEN I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND ASKED THEM TO LOOK UP MY VIN NUMBER TO SEE IF MY CAR HAD BEEN PROPERLY SERVICED, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE VIN I PROVIDED DID NOT HAVE A RECALL ON IT. I TOOK IT AS IF THEY WERE SAYING THE RECALL HAD BEEN PROPERLY HANDLED, BUT WHEN QUESTIONED FURTHER I WAS TOLD THAT MY SPECIFIC CAR DID NOT HAVE A RECALL AT ALL. I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT I HAD SEEN WHERE THE 95 CHRYSLER NEW YORKER HAD A FUEL SYSTEM RECALL. THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT I WAS CORRECT BUT MY CAR DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THAT RECALL. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND AND WOULD LIKE FURTHER EXPLANATION. *TR
