Other Fuel System Tank Assembly Problems of Chrysler 300 - part 1

My 4 year old Chrysler started giving off a very strong smell of fresh gasoline each time I filled up the tank. The fumes were so strong I had the car on a lift looking for leaks in the rear of the car. There was no visible leaking of gasoline. The smell was also super strong out side of the rear and sides of the car to the point of fear of someone walking by and dropping a cigar and blowing up from the fumes. The smell was there while sitting and moving. The dealer advised me not to add more than 1/8 of a tank of gas from empty or the fuel would escape from the crack or hole and cause the cancerous smell. The tech at the dealer reported that the fuel was leaking at the filler connector.

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.

When ac is on there is a strong odor of gasoline every time we turn ac on or if the car is in use for a long time the odor is very strong in the car, since this issue started the car has been using more gasoline and I have to fill up the tank more times than usual. My car is still under manufactures warranty and I scheduled a service with Chrysler to have it checked out but they did not want to take the vehicle in to a service tech because no engine light or no code was present\. I have tried to get them to inspect the fuel lines to check if there is a leak or have them check the ac to see if they can find the cause of the strong odor that we get with the ac on but have had no luck. I am to the point that I am worried for my health and my children's health due to the strong gasoline odor.

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.

Car keeps saying service fuel sensor. I bought the car from enterprise rental car in March 2015 and in June 2015 the check engine light came on and the gas tank picture kelp blinking. I took it to Chrysler Dodge Jeep in duncanville ,TX and they supposedly fixed the problem. Well my car have been to the shop 5 times with the same problem over the past 3 yrs. It is currently doing the same thing at this time so this will make the 6th time it has to go to the shop for this issue. My warranty is out and I don't feel I should have to pay for this problem. I can't even get my car to pass inspection until this problem is fixed I don't know if the dealership reported the problem but I reported it to Chrysler corporation last year. .
