In the begining my car stall after filling the tank up with gas. It would stall at low idle like for instance when I come to a stop.

Ii own a 2005 300c with 1001,500 miles. I had a problem with the car running out of gas when the gage was still showing gas in the tank wile driving in city streets, and once in highway. Luckily I was in the right lane. I complained to the dealer in two occasions of this occurrence. Finally the tank was replaced around 2014. After that, I went back to the dealer on several occasions complaining that after filling my tank with gas there was a strong smell of fuel. They keep telling me there was nothing wrong. Finally in October 2019. I took car back and was told there was a crack on the at top of fuel tank pump housing r/h, and gas was leaking from the attaching ring and the rubber hose and accumulating on some cavities at top of pump. The dealer quoted me about a thousand dollar for the job, and needed keep my car for 3 days. I got a second opinion and was told this has being happening for a long time. I eventually had the car repaired at the second location for less than $450 dollar including parts, and the was car fixed in 4 hours not 3 days and a thousand dollars. Also!

4 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 10/16/2018

Vehicle stalls every time after filling up gas tank. Stalls when driving slowly or at idle when turning ex. When turning at intersection or turning into driveway. This is a definite safety issue as the car can shut off in the middle of a busy intersection and could possibly cause an accident. Vehicle can sometimes be turned on right after it has shut off or can take up to 10 minutes for it to crank up. 10 minutes in a busy intersection is a long time waiting for a vehicle to crank up.

6 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 04/15/2014

My daughter & I are driving my car, a 2005 Chrysler 300c with the v8 engine and experiencing a stalling problem after filling up with gas. Upon leaving the gas station and merging into local traffic the car then stalls causing a dramatic loss of speed and loss of control. For my daughter she was lucky that there was a driveway (for another gas station) at the corner so she rolled into another gas station without hitting any cars and causing an accident. The same problem reappeared when next time, I left the gas station after filling up and the car stalled after I travelled about 200 feet and had just merged into traffic on a busy local road. Luckily I was able to restart the car after it stalled in the middle of this road. The car is now stalling every time I fill the tank and I will be taking it to a Chrysler dealer to get fixed. This problem was investigated by the NHTSA (reference case pe3-016) they found that the problem was caused by filling up the car with higher ethanol gas which was causing the gas shut-off float located inside the gas tank to swell and stick in the open position which allowed fuel to enter a purge line. Chrysler responded by extending fuel tank warranties to153,817 vehicles, namely the v8 versions on the Chrysler 300s, Dodge chargers and Dodge magnums for the 2006 model year. . Read more...
