Minutes after filling my tank with gas, i drove less than a mile and turned into a parking lot. I was still driving, around 15 mph, when i heard a ding, and immediately noticed a loss of steering control. I pressed the brake and quickly noticed a loss of braking as well. It was then i realized the car had stalled while i was still moving! Thankfully i had no one around and was on a straight stretch where i could…

After filling my car up at a gas station i was entering the freeway and my car sputtered and stalled on me on the on ramp to the freeway. I was almost rear ended and the car locked up and it was difficult to steer. Further diagnoses from the dealership showed that the evap valve was bad on the car and needed a new gas tank. Apparently this problem is happening with a lot of dodge chargers, magnums and chrysler…

About 3 months ago at around 65,000 miles, my 2006 dodge charger r/t started sputtering and cutting off after filling with fuel. A strong odor would come from underneath. It will last for about 5-10 miles and stop. I have no more problems with it until i fill up again. It has been in the shop several times with me paying for diagnostics but they can not find anything wrong.i have explained to them it only happens…

Stalling happens after fuel up. Stalling at high speeds while acceleration and while stopped at stop lights. Looses power instantly on freeway the kicks back in. *tr

After filling up the gas tank the vehicle stalls after driving a short distance. Has done this numerous times. It will sputter for some time and continue to cut off several times before driving smoothly. I took it to the dealership, and they stated that it was a faulty gas tank. After removing the gas tank, i received a phone call from the dealership later that day. They advised me that the fuel pump was cracked.…

Initially, after refueling my vehicle (2006 dodge charger r/t with 5.7l hemi) at a gas station, the engine would hesitate and stumble a mile or so later, and operate normally after a few moments. However, beginning within the last month, whenever i refuel at the gas station, the engine will hesitate and then stall.the obd does not illuminate the mil or register a dtc. The engine is then hard to restart, and once…

After filling gas tank, engine hesitates and/or stalls. I only fill up until the fuel pump automatically shuts off, i do not add any more fuel than that. This has happened almost every time i have filled up with fuel. Most of the stalling/hesitation occurs when coasting or decelerating (coming to a stop). This has created multiple very dangerous situations due to the engine not running and i have a loss of the power…

2006 dodge charger r/t (close to 70k miles) failed to accelerate shortly after fuel tank was partially filled (3/4 of gas tank). Incident occurred when making a left turn on a 2 way/double lane city street. As i proceeded to make a left turn when a clear section of oncoming traffic was present, the vehicle suddenly stalled in the middle of the opposite "oncoming" traffic and failed to accelerate. In order to achieve…

I continue to have a problem with my car stalling after refueling. I know that nhtsa has been investigating this issue for a while (pe-13-016) and that they closed this investigation on feb 10, 2014, after chrysler agreed to provide a lifetime warranty on the multifunction control valve on fuel tank. I had been waiting to receive my letter, which supposedly began being mailed out in january 2014, so i could have…

When i got into the car to leave work i could not get it out of park. I got a ride home and returned the next day and called the dodge dealership. They said they have had this happen numerous times and that it could happen anywhere. One of the mechanics had it happen when he stopped for fuel. The part cost $7 and the labor is $175. I feel i was fortunate that it did not happen while i had my infant grandkids with me…

While driving with cruise control on the car just stalled out for about 3-5 seconds and kicked back on. This has now become more frequent and also stalls while stopped now. I have spent over 1300$ trouble shooting and going back and forth to the mechanic. Only to start searching and came across this investigation. I just want the car to run correctly.

After refueling of vehicle and driving from gas station vehicle stalls and hard to start. After researching this issue on the internet it appears this is a common issue with this make and model. Now when trying to refuel the vehicle the pump kicks off every few seconds, unable to refuel at a gas station at this point. Only way to refuel at this point is by using a five gallon gas can so that the air can escape the…

Vehicle stalls after refueling and pulling out of the gas station (into traffic). Then, it is hard to start and sputters and stalls for some time. It appears to be an issue with the fuel tank vent valve failing to shut off when the tank if full. This allows raw fuel to enter the evaporation system which probably ruins the evaporation canister as well. The fuel tank vent valve is integrated into the fuel tank so, the…

I have a 2006 dodge charger r/t with a 5.7l engine. My car has started to randomly stall mostly at slower speeds when approaching a stop light or making a turn. There is no warning that it is going to happen, it just sputters, bucks and then stalls. There are no codes after restarting the car. It will restart if i put it in either park or neutral but continues to chug and sputter after restarting. It will do this…

When out of town i filled up my dodge charger and headed to a hotel. On the road my car began to stall, but not completely lose power. When i slowed to make a turn it completely died. At the time i thought i had gotten bad gas, and had my car towed and repaired. However, it continued to do the same thing only after filling my tank. I took my car to firestone for a diagnostic and the mechanic told me that i would…

I refueled the gas tank with high octane gas, and while driving the short distance home, the engine stalled three times. This made braking difficult and scary, as i was in traffic. Each time it started back up, but left me very afraid of wrecking from possibly not being able to stop the car. *tr
