I have my car at the moss bros dealership in riverside CA. Now for 5 days to try and repair this safety issue! 3/28/23. Car has stalled approximately 20 times, 4 times which were on the freeway. The car will start up and run fine for several days and then it acts up. Could be a number of things, but with no codes, pretty hard to diagnose the stalling issue.

2006 Chrysler 300c | engine stall while driving | possibly tipm-related I purchased my 2006 Chrysler 300c just short of 6 months ago. Within the first week, as I was taking a left hand turn the ignition completely shut off. While the power was still active, I could not drive the car until I turned over the vehicle to restart the car. Thinking it was possibly a fringe issue I ignored to issue. Fast forwarding to today, my wife and I have experienced roughly 25-50 occurrences of the vehicle shutting off while the vehicle was in motion. I have been paying for a vehicle that only seems to work when it feels like it and what concerns me most is that every day I drive this vehicle I am endangering the lives of my wife and five children.

Vehicle stalled out at about 5 mph. Next day vehicle stalled out at 65 mph on interstate. Very dangerous situation. Repair facility could find no problem, had expensive major tuneup, but problem still exists.

I stopped at an rr crossing to wait for the train to pass by shutting down the engine to decrease pollution. The vehicle restarted but I was unable to shift from park to drive and I was stalled in the middle of the road. Being locked in park, I could not even be pushed out of traffic. After checking the internet this is a well known problem with this make & model and certain VIN's have been recalled to correct by Chrysler. There are thousands more on the road that did not fall under the recall but are experiencing the same safety problem. Sitting in your driveway and not being able to move the vehicle is one thing, sitting in the middle of the road as I was is an entirely different situation. All vehicles of this make & model need to be recalled immediately!.

It is extremely difficult to put shifter into park. It is usually stuck between r and p. I am required to forcefully pull shifter into neutral to start. This car has been plaqued with some type of electrical issue that I have spent nearly $1000 trying to determine. I am unaware if the problem is related, but my concern is when it appears to be in park, the backup light are on. I can push the shift to put into park. I have removed the shroud in hopes to figure it out. This car is a pain.

Vehicle will not shift out of park. Vehicle will start normally, however the console mounted automatic shifter will not shift out of park. Problem appears to be with the pink plastic transmission shift interlock latch. The tab that is connected to the return spring fails and does not allow the transmission to shift out of park. This was discussed with local service department and they acknowledged this has happened to other vehicles. An internet research has indicated this to be a wide spread problems for 2005-2007 Chrysler, Dodge vehicles to the extent that there is an after-marked aluminum part to resolve the issue. If the issue is sufficient to warrant an after-marked part to be created it is serious enough to warrant investigation and consideration for a recall.

While trying to merge on the freeway the motor stalled and made a rolling drumming not a high pitch noise wouldn't re start towed it home got it started and the engine is making a loud squeak noise it won't idle on its own and it stalls when put into gear.

2006 Chrysler 300c, automatic transmission. Transmission shifter would not shift out of park. The vehicle is equipped with a pink plastic transmission shifter interlock lever. This lever has a hook for the spring to hook onto. The hook broke, causing the shifter to lock in the "park" position. This leaves the car inoperable.

Vehicle will stall while driving or surge while trying to stop without notice for up to thirty minutes or approximately 20 miles after normal fuel up (no topping off!). I suddenly surged while approaching another vehicle from behind at a stop light and my vehicle nearly caused a collision. While driving on a two-lane curved road the vehicle stalled causing loss of steering and near collision with on-coming traffic and had to stop quickly which caused a road hazard for other vehicles coming around a tight turn behind me. Once restarted, I continued on same road and vehicle died again in a turn on same road causing the steering to go out again which lead to veering off the road and with the potential of falling down a 30 foot un-gaurded decline. Vehicle will stall and surge while in idle as well. I have been able to replicate this issue reliablly on three separate occasions. I welcome any skeptics from Chrysler or other investigative authorities to contact me so that I may demonstrate the severity of this issue if necessary. This is dangerous!!!.

After re-fueling vehicle, car stalled at 5 intersections. Vehicle was difficult to restart. Vehicle would not always go back into gear after restarting until several attempts were made. After burning off a few gallons of fuel on the highway, the vehicle no longer stalled/misfired. Tank was not "topped-off" when filled, it was filled until the pump stopped automatically. Stalling occurs every time vehicle is filled to full.

After filling the car a Chrysler 300c stalls. This is now an ongoing problem as the car now stalls after fueling. The stall occurs mostly when stopped at a red-light or driving at a low rate of speed. It has now progressed to include when accelerating onto a interstate. The stall causes all safety systems to fail ie. Breaks, steering, et. I have called the local dealership and the Chrysler hotline 800-992-1997 and was informed that the national highway traffic safety administration, Chrysler will extend fuel-tank warranties does not apply to 2006 Chrysler 300c models. I was told the malfunctioning shut-off float and gas tank neck splash issue is not covered.

After filling up the fuel tank from a start of 1/8 th to full tank, the car stalled after leaving the service station about 200 feet down the road while stopped at a light. After getting the vehicle restarted I began to accelerate from the stopped position but driving power train was fairly erratic as the car attempted to lurch forward or accelerate unpredictably then would pull back by nearly stalling. This continued for several miles before reaching my driveway. The car while in neutral loped substantially from 2000 rpm to 100rpm several times before stalling. Attempting to start the car after stalling was successful. Leaving the car parked and off for 60 minutes had no beneficial effect. After returning the starting was very difficult and the instrument panel gauges were not lit until the car started again. The car continues to be idle erratically both while in park and in drive and at slow speeds.

After leaving the gas station (filling the tank) the car sputtered a few times, then as I approached a stop light it stalled out. I pulled away okay but it stalled again at the next light. After getting gas, the car is hesitant while driving and stalls out, usually lasting for 1-3 miles.

5 minutes after filling up my 06 Chrysler 300c srt-8 6. 1l at a gas station I was crossing over traffic to make a left turn and my car died in the middle of oncoming traffic. It took several minutes to restart then lurched forward after put into gear. This is the second time right after filling my tank this has occurred. The time before it stalled merging onto interstate on ramp.

The engine does not need to be restarted so far while driving. It will "die" for a few seconds and then comes back again just short of complete engine shut down.
