After filling up with gas the vehicle will stall out and die. Especially after a stop or making a sharp turn. If you fill the tank halfway or 3/4 the problem does not happen. *tr

This issue relates to pe13-016. My 2006 dodge charger fuel tank cannot be filled to over 3/4 capacity. When it is filled beyond this level, the engine will stall, particularly after making a lh turn. I have been enduring this problem for years and have become fairly adept at re-starting my car in heavy traffic conditions and fortunately have not been involved in any collisions as a result. I understand chrysler…

The car stalls in traffic after it is filled with gas. This happen repeatedly and we took it back to the dodge dealer who replaced the purge valve in the gas tank. This did not solve the problem, the car still stalls after filling the tank with gas and continues to stall and "stutter" until about 1-2 gallons are used. This problem is very much a safety hazard.

Every time you fill up the gas tank the car wants to stall. I'm told there is a solenoid in the gas tank that fails and it lets raw fuel go to the evap canister causing a stall condition. This solenoid valve is molded into the gas tank and the only way to fix it is to replace the gas tank. This stall can happen while your sitting at a stop light or just pulling out into an intersection. The intersection situation is…

Vehicle stalls after filling up with gas due to a faulty valve in the gas tank. Could cause a collision if the car stalls in front of on coming traffic. This problem is not only common to the charger but to all chrysler vehicles. The only solution is to replace the gas tank due to the fact that the valve is not serviceable. *tr

The car bucked and acted like it was going to stall entering the freeway. This happened after filling up with fuel at the gas station. This condition has progressively gotten worst. When i fill up, i can only fill to approximately 3/4 full tank in order to prevent stalling when stopping or accelerating around a turn. Apparently there is a problem with the roll over valve on the top of the fuel tank. It stops working…

I bought my 2006 dodge charger r/t brand new in june of 2006. I always filled the tank with gas until the pump automatically shutoff. I never topped off with gas or continued filling the tank once the pump would automatically stop. This was never a problem for 5 years. Last year in october of 2011 at around 73,000 miles the car would stall and turn off the engine occasionally right after filling up in live traffic…

The engine stalls after i fill the fuel tank and leave the gas station . Usually this occurs within a block or so after leaving the gas station and it continues for several miles of driving. I do not 'top off' the tank, and i have mindful lately to not even fill up all the way if possible. This issue has caused several 'near accidents' when the vehicle stalls in the lanes of traffic. It causes me to be extremely…

After filling up the gas tank, within minutes i was turning left in an intersection when the engine stopped and the steering became very difficult and an accident was barely avoided. This was extremely dangerous because of oncoming traffic. In fact i was almost struck by two vehicles, one coming at me and the other behind me. I restarted the car, drove through the intersection for about 5-10 seconds and the car…

I had a 2006 charger (recently sold) with the well documented stalling issues after filling up the fuel tank. The first time the car died i was in the middle of a very busy intersection. I managed to get the car to a nearby parking lot after 2 additional stalls. I took the car to a dodge dealer who could not reproduce the problem & sold me a new gas cap. Gas cap did not fix the problem. For the next 18 months i…

This has been going on for years, i read about others having similar issues and decided to contribute mine as well as it happened again the other day when i accidentally refilled all the way. When you fill the tank all the way, the vehicle stalls immediately and will continue stalling until the gas tank is no longer "completely full." the only easy way to fix without taking something apart is…
