I have checked with registration authority's and they have told me that according to their records it was first registered in 2008 and its a 2008 model, which on the compliance plate it says 04/08 but the sticker in the drivers door says MFR (build) 6-06, and according to the information i have gathered from technical support the ninth and tenth symbol in the vin/chassis number states month and year of build or release date which is 5 and 6. How is this even possible ? Could this be a big mistake made when the car was first brought to Australia/made? Or was i ripped off 1 year ago?
The build date doesn't necessarily indicate the model year of the vehicle. You can have a car built in 2006, but it's a 2007 model.
The vehicle could also be compliant for 2008 standards, even though it was built in a different year.
The VIN is what you should go by. If you are worried I would check that the reg. authority has the correct VIN.

The engine number is the 8th digit in the VIN which for this should be a B 2.4L.

if i remember right the mirror allows water into the door cavity where it sits and stinks. it comes through from the back(glass) side. do u use the pressure washer alot? not a fix for it other than clean inside door well and you can drill a few 3/16" holes in the bottom of doore to drain the moisture. good luck and let us know what u find

It is
possible that the silicone has penetrated some of the contacting
surfaces in the switch and this is causing some internal failure. You will need to be evaluated individually and cleaning these components.
I
do not think this has caused some electrical short involving blown
fuse, but I could be wrong (the silicone spray is non-dielectric). Meanwhile, I will seek some fuse diagram for your model and year.

The code is for a large leak in the fuel tank or evap system.
Some possible cause are - a leaking fuel tank, gas cap, hoses to and from the vapor canister and engine, and a faulty canister.
It's possible a valve is stuck open and allowing the engine to pull fumes in when the system is supposed to be closed, but if this were the case the computer should also set a code for that valve.
Here is the definition.
P0455 CHRYSLER Description
The Evaporative emissions (EVAP) system is design to prevent the
escape of fuel vapors from the fuel system. Leaks in the system, ca
allow vapors to escape into the atmosphere. The leak detection system
tests for EVAP system leaks and blockage.
During the
self-diagnostics, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) first checks the
Leak Detection Pump (LDP) for electrical and mechanical faults. If the
first checks pass, the PCM then uses the LDP to seal the vent valve and
pump air into the system to pressurize it. If a leak is present, the PCM
will continue pumping the LDP to replace the air that leaks out. The
PCM determines the size of the leak based on how fast/long it must pump
the LDP as it tries to maintain pressure in the system.
