The first time my wifes 2006 dodge charger car shut off/stalled after we filled up the car, i thought it may have been some bad fuel. But no way - as i have filled the car several times now and the same thing happens regardless of where we get the fuel. Last night, i filled the 2006 dodge charger gas tank on a trip and was getting back onto the highway and the car stalled....lost power steering, etc...had to quickly…

I have a 2006 dodge daytona r/t charger. In january of this year, with ~185k thousand miles on the car, it began stalling after fueling. The car will suddenly die and causes loss of power steering and brakes, and is often difficult to restart. This is causing extremely dangerous conditions, as it occurs when pulling out into traffic and/or moving through intersections. Because the car suddenly stalls, you are left…

After re-fueling, my 2006 dodge charger will stall until the car has been driven 20-30 miles. The stall will occur at any speed and will stop after some fuel has been used. I am concerned because this stall has occurred at busy intersections and heavy traffic. I consider this a serious safety issue. *tr

The car stalled just after fueling when attempting to cross a busy road. I was luck that i was able to restart after a few trys and get out of the way of on coming traffic. The car stalled two more times within one mile. Each time, i blocked traffic. I have read that this is a common problem with my vehicle. The car was towed to a dealer since i did not feel safe driving it any longer. *tr

Immediately after fueling vehicle to regular capacity and automatic shutoff - no "topping off". Left the filling station and the car stalled several times, each time in a precarious position such as decelerating to make a turn or coming to a stop at a light. Car dies losing power steering and breaks. Thought this might be bad gas but it has since repeated every time the car is refueled. This is becoming a serious…

After re-fueling at a local gas station i came to a stop at a traffic signal light. When the light turned green the car stalled. I placed the car in park and it restarted. This also occurred several months ago and i experienced the same scenario each time after re-fueling my vehicle. *tr

This is not the first time this has happened and this is flat out dangerous! After driving all day i was almost out of gas so i stopped at one of my regularly used gas stations. As like i always do when i get gas i got a full tank and i do not overfill, once the handle pops i'm done pumping. Vehicle started fine and i drove off the gas station with no problems. Once on the main road i approached my first turn and in…

When gas tank is filled, car will stall a few blocks later. Dodge says the sensor in the gas tank is faulty and causes the system to suck gas backwards through the vapor recovery lines and deposit it into the engine, flooding the car. All power is lost to power steering, brakes, and drive train. If you are turning when this happens, it is very dangerous and will cause a crash. Total loss of control over the vehicle.…

Typical problem related by many after refueling the engine dies and thus, for over a year now, i never fill to more than 16 gallons. But, if one turns left with fuel level around 16 gallons, the engine quickly dies leaving the vehicle vulnerable in the middle of a busy intersection without steering or brakes. Left hand turns now have to be made at a very slow speed after refueling which can also create a dangerous…

When temps. Were cold less than 25 degress the accelerator would would stick at 4,000 rpm. I could put my foot under the gas pedal and lift it up to a normal idle. The throttle is electronically controlled. Here in michigan with more than 90" of snow this season an accident was waiting to happen, very unsafe. I told the dealer what was wrong and i expected a repair $495.00 parts and labor. I called chrysler customer…

Continues to stall after gas fill-up in traffic causing other cars to dodge to right of left to avoid collusion. Makes for dangerous driving after fill-up. Apparently many other charger owners are having the problem at an increasing rate. This is something chrysler should look into before people get injured or worse! This is well documented on the internet. *tr

I paid $40k for this vehicle. Manufacturer nor extended warranty covers this costly and dangerous defect. I would like for this problem to be rectified by a manufactures' recall or consumer reimbursement. Please contact me at [xxx] information…

The problem started back in december of 2013 at 77,000 miles. When i fill up at the gas station (i never top of) the car stalls and shuts off. It happens every time i fill up. I pull out of the gas station and it shuts off in the middle of the road. Dealer can't find the problem. It's very frustrating. My main concern is safety and the repeated service visits and cost. The last time was scary because it shut off at…

Vehicle stalled in the middle of a busy street while driving during rush hour traffic. Luckily no one hit me (especially since i had my daughter in the car). I had just filled up the gas tank (did not overfill--gas is way too expensive for that). Had it towed and the dealer had to replace the fuel tank, o-ring unit, vapor canister, solenoid-proportional purge and some misc. Pins etc. Cost me $1900.00 out of my…
