Chrysler Aspen owners have raised concerns about a safety issue during refueling, where the auto shut-off feature malfunctions and results in excessive gasoline spillage on the vehicle, ground, and even the driver. This problem has been widely reported and is seen as a serious flaw in the vehicle that has not yet been addressed through a recall. Typically, when refueling, the gas filler neck unexpectedly sprays fuel onto the car's exterior after the auto shut-off mechanism activates prematurely, before the Aspen's tank is fully filled. These incidents have been linked to the 5.7 HEMI engine, with one case even resulting in a vehicle fire.
To reset the fuel pump in the 2007 Chrysler Aspen, locate the inertial switch located beneath the dashboard and press the reset button for the fuel pump. If this doesn't resolve the issue, it likely means that the fuel pump is faulty, leading to issues like slow acceleration or inadequate fuel delivery to the engine.
