Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2006 Chrysler 300 - part 1

My car shuts off every time I fill my gas tank. I crank it, put it in drive. As I'm driving, my car completely shuts off. This has happened numerous times in traffic. At rush hours.

Vehicle intermittently stalls when slowing down to stop or slowing down to turn a corner. All power shuts down and check fuel light comes on. Check engine light does not come on. Has only happened with a partial tank of gas-never with a full tank - remaining mileage has been between 75 and 123 miles left. Has only happened at slow speed. Dealer has worked on it 4 times each time closing ticket as fixed except for the last time . Have talked to service director about problem with no results. Vehicle has 123000 miles.

I own a 2006chrysler 300 with a 3. 5 liter engine. Over the last several months, I've experienced stalling and engine shut off following refueling. I took the vehicle in to my mechanic who alerted me to a recall issued by Chrysler over this exact problem. The challenge, I was told, was that this was a VIN specific recall, 14-002-14, dated 4/2214, on my model and engine's fuel system, noted as a lifetime warranty repair, as stated in that recall, but it did not include my VIN number. My mechanic confirmed that this problem, allowing gasoline to enter the evaporator chamber in the fuel system by dropping the gas tank and examining it. I was told to take this to a local dealership to have it addressed. At my local dealership, the same examination was conducted and the same problem confirmed. The dealer told me that since the limited recall did not include my VIN number, I'd have to appeal to Chrysler directly. After several weeks of promised calls never being made to me, I finally spoke with brittany, a customer service supervisor who said I was not entitled to the lifetime warranty and free repair to this factory defect because my VIN was not one of those vehicles covered under that recall. She said any repair to this acknowledged factory defect, confirmed by chysler's dealership mechanics, would have to done at my expense. As a consumer, I find this egregious. Why should an acknowledge factory defect be repaired on my dime, while the same model, year and engine type as my vehicle is covered under and unlimited warranty by Chrysler for other, select vehicles. I am appealing to your organization to help me obtain this repair before my family and/or I are subjected to a roadside failure of tragic accident. I look forward to hearing back from you soon. Thank you.

Fuel tank extended warranty on 2006 Chrysler 300.

I can no longer fill my gas tank to the "full" level , if I do, my car randomly stalls out while driving or making any kind of turn, with out any warning or notification in the dash board . Also if I top off my gas tank the inside of my smells strongly of fuel , as it is leaking inside some how .

After putting gas in my car gas tank the entire interior of the vehical will smell like gas fumes. When I park the car in my garage the smell is so strong my entire garage will smell like gas. This has occurred ever since I purchased the vehicle in June of 2018.

After fill up tank the car stalls 3 to 6 times in the first 5 miles. Completely dead no power steering no nothing. Will restart. Then do it again.

Right after refueling the car it ended up stalling at a red light. The engine completely shut off so I had to restart the car in order to drive again. The engine continuously shut off at every stop. It even happened in the middle of a u-turn, so I was stuck in the middle of the street until recranking the car. I did research and noticed this was a fuel tank problem do to a faulty valve placed in the fuel tank. They extended the warranty for some 2006 Chrysler 300 owners, but not all. Leaving me with the same problem and no help getting the problem fixed. Even though it is there fault for building a faulty valve.

When tank is full the car shimmies and feels like it is going to stall. When tank is only half full no issues.

Mark Chrysler 300 stalls when I fill it up with gas is there a warranty for a new gas tank it runs fine until I fill it up with gas it shuts off at low speed and in traffic.

I purchased my vehicle used 2 weeks ago. Initially the vehicle was running fine until I filled it up with fuel. As soon as I pulled out of the gas station my vehicle started stalling as if I was losing power to my vehicle. After a few miles the stalling stopped. In the past few weeks the stalling has become worse every time I pump fuel. It shuts off if I'm idle at a light, it shuts off when I'm attempting to park, turn left, or in a drive thru. As soon as I would crank my vehicle up and go to accelerate the car won't move until after a few seconds and then it just jerks out before a smooth drive. Yesterday I took it to a Chrysler dealership because after informing the used car sales lot where I purchased the vehicle they couldn't find the issue and wanted to keep my car for a week. After 10 hours of trying to find the issue they stated there had been a recall on the fuel tank for 2006 Chrysler 300s. He said that should fix the problem and I should be on my way. So I was relieved to hear the great news coming from the Chrysler dealership. Well after heading home and 20 miles out from the dealership there goes the stalling again last night. My vehicle shut off at the light and again as soon as I attempted to park my vehicle in the driveway. In addition to the fuel system issue is causing another issue that I truly fee wasn't investigated thoroughly. I noticed a recall on 2006 Chrysler pacifica where the stalling was caused by the fuel system, tcm, and pcm module basically dealing with the power train and this is very highly the same issue going on with 2006 Chrysler 300. There should've been a recall on both and there isn't. This is very dangerous as when I stalled onto the freeway I was almost hit by an 18 wheeler truck on last week. The tcm and pcm codes along with the fuel system code were showing in the diagnostic issue yesterday. Help please.

My car shuts off when I fill the tank. It shuts of when in motion.

Turned ignition, car starts right up, then stalls. After several attempts car becomes drive-able but stalls while driving, stopping and turning. At this point steering wheel locks and turning becomes difficult which is scary while in traffic. This problem occurs periodically, sometimes the car will drive okay and then starts stalling. Had this same problem in 2013, took to dealer and had to have gas tank replaced at a cost of $1300. 00 dollars.

I filled up my gas tank, drove approximately 2 miles and came to a stop sign. At the stop I experienced a erratic idle followed by my car shutting off. I stared it back up and for about 5 seconds it still and a very erratic idle. I was able to get out of the street but it could have been very dangerous.

I drive a 2006 300c hemi w/60k miles. I bought this car from a friend. This car has been in this city since 2006. Mid day temps 105'. I was running errands in town. I had stopped at 7 different locations, turned the vehicle off and a few minutes later returned to the car and continued with my errands. I was in the car sitting at a 4 lane intersection waiting for my turn and I looked down at the dash and the oil can light came on, then traffic started to move and I couldn't, my car had stalled. I turned off the a/c unit, the radio and put it in park. I tried 6 or so times to get the car to start but it wouldn't . I engaged my flashers while other drivers were honking and driving around me. I left it in traffic and got to the sidewalk out of danger. I was calling for help when a motorist pulled up behind my car and asked whats wrong. I told him it just died, sitting still waiting for our turn to go thru the intersection. He got in the car that had been sitting there for about 5 minutes and it started right up and he drove it to a safe parking lot. I parked the car in my garage and there it sits. I am afraid to get stranded in traffic again. I did some research on the web and found that Chrysler announced on Feb 13, 2014 Chrysler extends lifetime warranty on 2006, 5. 7 and 6. 1 hemi fuel tanks. Apparently, no one has died yet so it does not quality for a recall but this is a known problem. I would like to know how I can qualify for this warranty?.

It runs quiet and everything it just cut off on me while I was on brake at a stopping position, I was at a light on my brakes and it cut off on me, I just bought it yesterday, and filled my tank up. . . I love this car, what is wrong with it?.

My Chrysler 300 2006 has been stalling at low speeds and when stopped after refueling. I took the vehicle to the dealership to have them check the problem for the first time in June. They did not find anything so I continued to deal with the issue until September because the issue got worse and stalled on the expressway. I received a notice from Chrysler about my vehicle having a recall and to set up service. Only after I brought the notice to the dealer did the acknowledge that this was the reason my car was stalling so much. They said the repairs were covered under warranty and they would order the fuel tank. This was over a month ago the dealership still has not received the parts. I recently was in a car accident because of this defect, my vehicle stalled on on the road and caused a 4 car pile up. I have contacted Chrysler and they are not trying to resolve the issue.

This is not a complaint, but info for other Chrysler owners with the fuel fill/stalling problem. We just received a letter from Chrysler, telling us they have issued a lifetime warranty on the components causing this problem. We made an appointment and had our 2006 300 fixed in 2 days! the fuel tank and internal valves were replaced after removing the exhaust and driveline. The job took 5-6 hours and we were not charged a cent! the car is again running very well without stalling. Thank you, Chrysler!.

The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler 300. The contact stated while driving approximately 10 mph, the engine stalled without prior warning. The vehicle restarted then the failure recurred. In addition, the check engine warning indicator illuminated two weeks after the first failure. The vehicle was diagnosed by an authorized dealer who replaced the faulty vacuum canister and fuel tank. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 51,069.

After I fill my tank the vehicle will stall over and over. This has happened many times.

Very shortly after refueling my car (probably driven less than 1000 feet) the car shuttered and stalled. It restarted immediately but then shut down again within the mile. Again, it started immediately and I had no more problems until the next time I filled the tank and it stalled again almost immediately upon exiting the gas station. Again, it restarted on the first try and I had no more problems for the rest of the trip or since. However, I have not refueled since; so don't know what will happen when I do. I have taken it to a dealer and it is deemed I need a new gas tank. Gas tanks should not wear out and our car is low mileage and in mint condition. This seems like a faulty design problem. It is clearly a safety issue with my car and I suspect with others who own the same model. (I did not "top off" the tank on either occasion. ).

Filled up tank at local gas station. . After starting, the engine stalled out at the gas station. Restarted the engine and headed home, which is one block from the station. Pulled into driveway and the engine stalled again. Momentum carried me under the carport. Restarted engine 5 more times. Each time it stalled out. Had to find alternate transportation for out of town trip. Cannot safely drive this vehicle with this continued issue. 300c.
