Car Stall problems of the 2006 Dodge Charger - part 1

Out of no where my car started stalling on me, took it to a mechanic, cleaned ground wires, changed O2 sensor, cleaned throttle body everything looks and sounds good, but the car stalls, while I'm driving, as well as at a stop, sometimes it completely shuts off and I loose all control including power steering, and sometimes just cuts off for half a second and turns itself back on, iv seen a lot of posts about the gas tank overfilling problem, as well as a ignition switch problem with these cars, I called the dealer but they said they can't address it since my VIN isn't reported for those recalls. My car is unsafe to drive right now and I don't know why but there's reports of manufacturer faults.

My 2006 Dodge Charger rt v8 5. 7 keep stalling after I put gas in and shut off while I'm driving and when I pull over and it start right back up I'm really concerned about my safety because it done that multiple times on my way to work and after work.

Vehicle stalls when slowing to stop or turn, only after filling the gas tank. The stalling persists, and has left me in dangerous situations, until enough fuel is used. From 3/4 full and lower there is no stalling whatsoever.

Car stalls and steering wheel locks up and oil light comes on. Only happens after I put any gas in the car I do not fill it! I was crossing a intersection and my car died the steering wheel locked up completely and the oil light started flashing. I had to roll to the side of the road!!!!!!!!!.

Car stalls after fill up. Pull into traffic and you lose steering breaks ect. Need to put in park to restart. Will continue and miss and stall for about 5 miles. Once you run some fuel out of the car it runs exceptional until the next fill up.

Tl the contact owns a 2006 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled when the fuel tank was filled up completely. The contact was able to restart the vehicle with no further issues. The contact called the manufacturer and was informed that the vehicle was not included in a recall. The manufacturer informed the contact to call NHTSA. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failuire mileage was 64,000.

My 2006 Dodge Charger has developed a stalling issue every time I fill with gas. I have tried different things as far as not filling to the top or not topping it off with gas. I filled with gas along an interstate and when I was trying to get on the interstate it quit on me down the off ramp when I was to merge with traffic. Was able to get car to the side of the interstate and re-start but died again. Started again and then it ran with no issues. Now it has issues every time it is gassed up. I filled up yesterday and same thing died out at a stop sign trying to get on the highway. I have heard this is a big issue with these cars and I'm surprised that there hasn't been anything done to Dodge to fix this issue. I've heard it could cost up to $1,500 to fix. I like the car but it is a safety issue to drive it. Please help! thanks.

My 2006 Dodge Charger daytona will stall while driving. Also while sitting at a stop light or sign. It happens during random times.

Car will shut off going 45 mph, at a stop light (0 mph) or when crossing traffic intersections for examples (at most going 10 or 15 mph). I will attempt to restart and the car will start up, stall up and then shut off again - when this happens, I lose power steering. I have to switch gears from drive to park and then turn the car off and then on again in hopes it will start. As you're driving, you can feel when the car is about to cut off, it throttles ahead a bit and revs, then the car beeps and turns off, while the gear is in drive and turning my wheel does nothing. I notice that this issue would usually happen after a fill up my gas tank, so I started only filling up halfway ,but the issue still persists. This issue became heavily frequent yesterday where the car stalled and cut off at least 4 different times while making a 7 mile drive back home. This was very very scary in my eyes, especially with a passenger in my seat. This is a huge safety concern because the vehicle is shutting off while in motion and powering steering is lost. If this happens on the highway going 60+ miles per hour, or turning into oncoming traffic, there is a guaranteed accident, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. I believe there is an issue with the gas tank and the evap canister that causes the sensors to think that gas is overfilling the engine, which shuts off the car. This was filed under NHTSA pe13-016 (which appears to be closed or inaccessible- https://www-odi. Nhtsa. Dot. Gov/acms/cs/documentlist. Xhtml?docid=pe13016&doctype=inv). This safety concern really needs to be looked into.

I have had this 2006 Dodge Charger for a while . Now it's been stalling and sometimes shutting off for no reason. Me and my 3 year old grandbaby was at a red light and the light turned green, I started to go car stalled and shut off. No was behind me at the time, so I was trying to get it to start,when I looked up . Saw a truck flying up on us. Thank god no one was beside us or he would of rear ended us. My boyfriend is a mechanic. He has worked for Chrysler for over 32 years. He can't seem to find the cause of it. No codes nothing. He can't talking to half of the bus. We replaced throttle body,tcm,pcm and some other things. Still nothing has helped. I have owned two other Chargers. This one is a night mare. Please do something. I'm getting to the point I'm scared to drive it.

Car stalls without warning at stoplights as well as on the road. If if the car is moving the engine will usually catch and restart but due to the way the transmission operates, there is a period of time before the transmission reengages so the car acts as if it is in neutral which is extremely dangerous and has caused many close calls with conflicting traffic at intersections. A quick search on google will show this is a chronic problem with these cars and there is no known root cause and Dodge has not done anything to investigate the root cause. As a result it has been left to the owner to spend potentially thousands of dollars for parts swapping to troubleshoot the problem but with little success. In most cases the problem is never resolved or simply returns shortly after being "fixed" by the dealer. Note: this is not related to the gas tank issue which has similar symptoms. I have replaced the gas tank in my car hoping it would resolve the problem but it did not.

Stalls and dies after fueling up. Can die right in an intersection or the highway. You lose power steering and power braking.

Tl the contact owns a 2006 Dodge Charger. After filling the vehicle with fuel, it stalled in traffic. Sometimes the vehicle would restart, but other times the contact would have to crank the vehicle several times to restart it while in traffic. The dealer (sterling Chrysler Jeep Dodge ram, 5504 I-49 frontage rd, opelousas, la 70570, (337) 942-1241) and the manufacturer stated that the vehicle was not included in a recall. The vehicle remained parked at the contact's house with no repairs completed. The failure mileage was 170,000.

When I fill up the gas tank of my vehicle, starts properly and runs good for a few minutes then stalls, pull to the side of the road, start again and runs fine for a few more minutes and then it does it again, vehicle is in motion or stationary, it happen also twice when turning and power steering went out almost ran out of the road the first time and the second had to apply brakes hard in order to avoid collision with another vehicle, very un-safe and dangerous. When driven about 40-60 the problem goes away and then starts all over when gas tank is filled up again. I do not have photos, police report or any other documentation to upload and hope not to have any to get this issue resolved.

The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Charger. While driving various speeds, the vehicle stalled and all the warning indicators illuminated. The contact had to turn the vehicle off and back on in order for it to resume normal operation. The vehicle was taken to cerritos Dodge Chrysler Jeep ram (18803 studebaker rd cerritos, CA 90703, (888) 879-5229) where it was diagnosed that the spark plugs needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer for additional diagnostic testing, but the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

The last time I filled up my car, it kept stalling and I would lose power steering and brakes while in traffic with my children in car. Not very safe feeling. Scared I was going to get hit with family in car. It would start up but it would keep stalling until I ran a few gallons out of it. I filled it up again today and noticed a sucking noise coming from gas tank. It started up then stalled as I took off. So I pulled over and kept starting it up every time it stalled. After about an hour of not stalling I drove home and parked in garage. It would stall going straight and turning.

2006 Dodge Charger. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle frequent stalling issues. The consumer stated the dealer was never able to fix the issue.

After filling up at a gas station, the car will stall out randomly at all speeds of travel. This is a huge safety issue that has sht down the car while merging onto freeway in front of semi-trucks only to have power steering and propulsion stop. Luckily truck was paying attention and honked and swerved around, while I rode off onto the shoulder. Then it restarted, ran for another minute and stalled again while trying to get back off the shoulder. I ended up letting it idle for 5 min before being able to merge successfully and get home. Online I have seen many people saying they have same or similar issues with their 2006 Dodge vehicles as well. Please help to get this resolved as this could have very well killed someone.

After filling up gas tank, vehicle will rapidly lose rpms and stall when stopped at lights or stop signs. I then put the vehicle in park and am able to restart it, but it will stall again while moving right after. This causes a loss of power steering which has almost caused me to crash multiple times. I only bought the car 12 days ago and it has done this multiple times. I have read the multiple other complaints, and have tried to fix the problem by replacing the pcm, but that did not work. Others have suggested replacing the gas tank because the stall could be caused by the vapor recovery system failing following refueling. I believe this issue is related to NHTSA action pe13016. The vehicle in its current condition is unsafe to drive as it will stall while moving and lose power steering. The problem first occurred on 11/7/16, and occurred again on 11/15/16, both times after I refueled. It will not occur if the gas is below 3/4 full. I replaced the pcm on 11/10/16, but that did not fix the problem.

Charger is stalling frequently. After filling up with gas. Stalled and went into some safe mode where it wouldn't go into second gear. Stalled on the highway, side roads and while making a turn. While making the turn it stalled in the middle of the intersection while a truck was coming at us. I had my son in the car and we were stranded in the road. We could have been killed!! I have read up on this and it seams to be a faulty sensor at the gas tank fill up. Why has this not been addressed? sounds like you are waiting for someone to get killed before doing anything. Great company!!!.

My 2006 Dodge Charger keep stalling while driving. I was sitting at a light getting to ready to turn and the car stopped in the middle of the turn. Thankful it was a turn signal or I would have been hit. Also the engine light come on and the car just stalls then - you can wait about 5 min. And it will start back up. Upon doing my research I am unsure to why their has not been a recall. I was on the highway and it starts to stall then I hit the gas and it keeps going.

The car stalled while I was driving at about 50-55 mph. Everything went out. Eventually the car started. Now, when I stop at a stop light or stop sign it stalls out. I have not received a warning light and I have had the vehicle checked with a computer. There are no lights on the dash indicating there is a problem.

My 2006 Dodge Charger rt stalls intermittently while I'm turning a corner on a city street or stopped at a red light. When it stalls, I do not have power steering. This is extremely dangerous because I could get hit. Sometimes it stalls more often after I fill up with gas. I do not overfill. I have been filing my gas tank the same way for 10 years and until October of 2016 it has never been a problem.

2006 Dodge charges with 5. 7 hemi v8 - experiencing random stalling. Happens at any speed. Everything shuts off including the power steering and abs. First happened while merging onto freeway and I had to drive off the road to avoid a semi-truck. This happened with my young child in the vehicle. I had the gas tank, fuel canister, and purge valve replaced. The problem still occurs regardless of the amount of gas in the vehicle and regardless of when it was refueled. Even though this appears to be a common problem the dealership has been no help and even tried charging me for unnecessary diagnostics. Car does not flash a code so after replacing what was supposed to fix the issue, driving the vehicle is the only way to find out if it is fixed. This has lead to a few dangerous close calls. Please look into this issue before people get hurt because this is a serious problem. Thank you, jeff allen.

My 2006 Charger will stall and or jolt violently as soon as I leave the gas station, and it is only when I fill up my tank. After restarting the vehicle twice and driving a short while I do not have any problems, it only happens when I fill up my gas tank. I know that newer vehicle fuel tanks are designed not to be force filled due to the special evap system. I only fill the tank till the station pump nozzle clicks off, which is what I was told how to fill these newer vehicles. This problem has been going on for over several months, though I have not had any traffic accidents, I fear that this is an accident waiting to happen.

On the night of June 3, 2016 I parked my 2006 Dodge Charger r/t in my drive after driving for about an hour. I went back out to leave again and the car would not start. After checking for any computer issues I had the car towed my the dealership. They performed tests and determined that my intake valve seat in my #1 cylinder dropped and cause the engine to stop running. The dealership wanted to charge me $3200 to replace the cylinder head. I chose not to have them perform the work, instead I removed the cylinder head and took it to a local machine shop where the fixed the issue on the cylinder head and I was able to install it back into my vehicle and get it running again. This issue still cost me over $1200.

Filled tank up with gas day before this happened. Driving down road at 25 mph the car stalled. It would restart and stall again.
