2 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 03/14/2017

When I fill the car up and it stops the fuel pump automatically, I close the gas cap and start the car. When I drive off it will stall. It will start back up right after but I have been making a turn after leaving the gas station and the car has stalled leaving me with no power steering or brakes. It only does this when I fill the car up. Because of this issue I can only fill the car 3/4 of the way up.

3 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 02/25/2017

On Feb 25th I put gas in my vehicle, later that day I noticed a high gasoline scent from my car. Ie; 10 days prior I had my vehicle serviced at my local arrigo Dodge dealership. I waited until the next to see if the smell had gone away, assuming I had put bad gas in my car. The next day before I could open my car doors I could smell the gasoline from standing outside my car. Still assuming I had bad gas I decided to drive out as much of the gas as possible. When I realized the smell would not go away, I went online and did some research, which lead to this being a common problem with the Dodge vehicles, I watched multiple videos and read multiple comments. On Feb 27th I followed some steps from videos. I took my back seat out lifted the guard and pulled of the fuel pump cover, and low and behold there was gas. This is a fire hazard. I drive my mother and my daughter in my car, anything could have happened. I called Dodge customer service on Feb 28th to report the problem to see if there was a recall, seeing that I was not the only one with this issue and complaint. Dodge was not much help. This problem that Dodge ignores has cost me emotional distress and more money than I expect to spend to fix. Dodge shows no interest or care in this case as this being a hazard. I am completely disappointed in the way Dodge is dealing with this issue. The representative that I spoke with did not give me any for of ease or comfort or offer any assistance on how this can be fixed. While it may seem like an easy fix to that rep, this problem goes beyond just fixing. Its a fire hazard and Dodge needs to look further into this. Maybe when something drastic happens on this account I guess that when it may matter to this company. I my self have taken multiple pictures and videos.

4 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 12/23/2016

2006 Dodge Charger has a known issue involving vehicle stalling if the gas tank is filled. Dodge negotiated a lifetime warranty for repair of this defect in lieu of a recall. I was not notified of this warranty. My fuel pump has failed due to chronically running hot due to inability to fill the gas tank. The fuel pump design depends on the cooler temperature of the gasoline in the tank to keep it cooled. In other words, not being able to keep adequate gas tank levels has directly led to fuel pump overheating and failure. Dodge will not cover the cost of fuel pump repair but will replace the fuel tank that caused the damage. The vehicle was in motion leaving the parking lot at.

5 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 06/13/2016

Fuel system issue pertaining to lack of fuel to engine. There have been multiple occasions where the vehicle had hard starting and stalling, now the vehicle won't start. After investigating common issues (I. E. , air, fuel, spark) it was determined that fuel was not traveling to the fuel rail at the engine. The fuel pump was replaced and the issue persisted. Currently the vehicle in non-operational due to the lack of fuel. I fell this issue is very similar to the NHTSA pe13016 investigation where the determination was to replace the fuel tank as the integrated multifunction control valve (mfcv) was found to be defective. The manufacturer offered a lifetime warranty for the issue, however it was stated that the vehicles included in the extended warranty were equipped with the 5. 7l and 6. 1l 8-cylider engines. We find this inaccurate as our vehicle is equipped with the 3. 5l 6-cylinder and is suspect to have the identical issues as stated in the all of the investigative documents for pe13016.

The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Charger. While driving approximately 30 mph, the vehicle stalled. The contact had to maneuver to the side of the road to a complete stop. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who stated that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The fuel pump was replaced, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired after the last incident. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was unavailble. The approximate failure mileage was 111,000.

7 Other Fuel System Pump problem

The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that while driving approximately 5 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact was able to restart the vehicle, which was taken to an independent mechanic. The mechanic replaced the spark plugs, cleaned the throttle body, replaced the plugs for the power control module, and changed the fuel pump relay. The failure recurred after the repairs were performed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 97,000.

8 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 05/06/2012

First instance was on Sunday, 6 may 2012. Car stalled after turning onto city street while accelerating to posted speed: 35 mph. If fuel tank is filled to click on gas pump (full tank) this continues to happen, especially in very humid weather conditions/rain. Car has also stalled on hills at stop signs or traffic lights and has stalled at on-ramps to local interstate highway/city bypass, given the above full fuel tank issue. If I don't fill the tank above the 7/8 mark on the fuel gage indicator, the car does not stall. If I exceed the 7/8 mark, then the car does stall, multiple times if very humid conditions exist and will continue until the fuel tank is at or below 7/8 capacity. I've had approximately 22 stalls since Sunday 6 may 2012. It's inconvenient to have to guess when to stop the fuel pump at gas stations and very frightening to stall in traffic, especially at on-ramps to highways.
