Every time i get gas and start the engine, it jerks and dies after driving a few hundred feet. I start it again and it keeps doing the same thing repeatedly. I'm afraid to pull into traffic because i don't know when it's going to just stop running. I feel this is a very unsafe situation. It has been going on for about 2 years now. Last night was the most recent occurrence.

There is deterioration in the upper parts of the filler pipe. The vent (can't recall the proper name) causes the sensors to think that gas is overfilling which shuts off the car (like some cars that will not start if the gas cap is not on completely.) replacing this part will not solve the problem long term.

After filling up, my car engine stalls. I took it to the mechanic and was told chrysler knows about it. I looked it up on your site and indeed found pe13016 but disagree with the finding being that it is a low safety issue. This has happened multiple times where i would be in the middle of traffic and the engine stalls and shuts off and the steering locks up where i can't steer the car whatsoever. The mechanic told…

Shortly after fill up the car will die. This has happened multiple times after filling up and it has happened after multiple fill ups. The car will start moving and i will begin driving when the car dies and i lose power steering. I took it to a mechanic and they said that it is a known safety issue with 2006 dodge chargers. The fuel tank and the evap canister needs to be replaced.

Immediately after a fuel fill up the engine will stall several times in forward or reverse. This will continue until the engine has operated for 4 to 5 minutes. The engine has failed on me several times at intersections and when pulling onto roadways...very dangerous place to stall.
