October 2000 Fire

On december 05/2002 my 1996 dodge grand caravan caught on fire. The car was just warming up prior to being used to take my kids to school. The fire was extinguished by the dekalb county, georgia fire department. I learned after the fire that chrysler had a recall related to a fuel rail/system defect. I have all major mechanic work done at the authorized chrysler dealership and was never told of this recall.
