new member with expensive fix
My name is Greg. I live in Florida.
Recently bought a 2006 Xfire Ltd Convertible. Given age and only 15,000 miles, I had everything that might be a problem from age with low miles checked. Few minor things -- only major was valve cover gasket. Then car came to a stop while driving as if out of gas. Dealer replaced gas float valve and sensor since engine thought it was not getting fuel. Now I'm told it needs a new dash board cluster (an expensive part that's difficult to get from Mopar approved suppliers). I've been waiting three weeks.
Any advice?

Dashboard cluster for not getting fuel? I don't see the connection but like Travish said the RCM. It has the fuel pump relay. Does the dealer hear the pump running or measured it's flow?

Take the car somewhere else, preferably to your home. You probably have received the solution in the above posts.
Get the fault codes red or get them from the dealer. You can pick up good good cluster ion eBay, but I really doubt that you need it, this dealer will keep changing parts until you have a huge bill.
Ignore the dealer, kick him out of the equation.

LOL! Sometimes I wonder if the maint. manual just gets in the way of logical troubleshooting.... :roll eyes:
As a friend says... ya gotta be smarter than the box.
