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.

42 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 12/27/2016

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.

43 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 11/15/2016

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.

44 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 11/02/2016

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!!!.

45 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 11/01/2016

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.

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.

48 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 09/01/2016

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.

51 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 08/01/2016

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.

54 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 06/03/2016

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.

55 Car Stall problem of the 2012 Dodge Charger

Failure Date: 05/18/2016

I had he exact same alternator failure as described by the Dodge Charger p60 recall. I was on the highway going about 60mph when my radio and front panel flickered, then cut off for a few seconds before coming back on. My traction control and abs lights stayed on. About a minute later, I lost power and my car completely stalled. I was able to drift to the center lane before coming to a complete stop. This was frightening because it was dark outside, it's a poorly lit road and of course I had no electricity to turn on my hazard lights. With no way to pop the trunk, I had to crawl into it via the back seat to grab flares (luckily I had some-most people don't). I was almost struck by several cars during this time. Alas, the tow truck came and I was taken to a safe location. The average quote from mechanics in the DC area is about $800. The dealership wants $970. The 180amp alternator should be recalled just as the 160amp alternator. Its defective and its a safety risk.
