general problems of the 2005 Dodge Magnum - part 1

I have an 05 Dodge Magnum rt 5. 7l hemi, that intermittently stalls after filling the gas tank, and continues to do this until gas goes down a little. After dealing with/living with this problem for a while, I finally took my car to a shop and told them what was happening. They told me I needed to replace the right fuel pump module, which I did. This was 02/19/2016, at a cost of $287. 94. The car had78,728 miles on the vehicle at this time. This did not fix the problem. I told the shop this, and I was told they couldn't find any other problem. After which I learned to live with it by not filling the tank up all they way. Recently I was not paying close enough attention when putting gas in, because I was washing my windshield. The car filled up until the pump clicked off. Upon leaving the gas station in morning rush hour traffic, my car immediately stalled. I was nearly rear ended. It took about 10 to 15 seconds to restart it. I was able to make the next green light to merge onto freeway, so I didn't need to slow down. (I should mention that the stalls only occur at slow speeds and stops, after the car has been filled with gas. ) I had to slow way down to merge, and my car again stalled. I finally go it to start again only to have this happen 6 more times in stop and go traffic in 1 mile! even though I was able to get to the right shoulder of the freeway until I could turn off, I caused major traffic delays. After telling a a CO-worker about this, he told me he has the exact same car, which had the exact same problem. He then informed me there was an lifetime warranty to fix this problem, and his was fixed under this warranty a couple of months ago. I have found information regarding this warranty on-line, but nothing comes up when I enter my VIN, even though it is the exact same year, make, and model of all the other cars that were fixed. I keep my car in top shape. It has no other issues than this. . . And I have been dealing with it since 2015!.

The malfunction to report is after fueling the vehicle will stall out. There is the sign of the fuel sending unit and fuel pump cycling after the ignition is turned on. This only occurs after topping off the fuel. The safety of operation is the stalling may occur while driving as well as at sitting still. When driving and the vehicles stalls causes the steering wheel to stiffen and the must come to a complete stop, placed in park, turn off the ignition and wait for the possible reset. The problem has not been reviewed on my particular vehicle but has been reported by other 2005 Magnum owners. No other manufacturing process has inspected my vehicle. And there are no warning lights that come to indicate there is a problem.

Vehicle has stalled 3 times in past year and won't start back up. I have mechanic fix fuel pump and other related parts to fuel. It is very unsafe. The car just stalls driving and wants to start but dies on me.

The vehicle stalled during normal use traveling about 35 miles an hour right after an intersection. My husband was able to safely make it off the road as we live in a small town he did this by feathering the accelerator pedal. He is a mechanic so he was able to get it home by lightly tapping the pedal. If he pressed the pedal too hard the car stalled without warning so he lightly tapped on it and made it 2 blocks to our home where it has set in the driveway ever since. We spent over $1000 replacing parts such as the throttle body and the fuel pump and sending unit, egr, pcv, crankshaft sensor, plugs,injectors, intake seals, air intake temperature sensor and throttle body which include the throttle position sensor. Before we went for the cam sensor I decided to look up the issue and found so many with the same problem as us. We are veterans on a semi fixed income with a 10 month old daughter and this is our only vehicle we live in a super hot place in northern arizona and can not afford further repairs as every part seems to be quite expensive. I don't have the fear of it dying while transporting my daughter again as it won't even stay started since the first incident. Additionally there are no codes or dash indicator lights staying on. We will be contacting Dodge in kingman arizona today.

When vehicle has been filled up with gas it will intermittently die until it has around 50 miles on it. Usually sputters and dies without warning leaving you with no steering or brakes. Will restart but die until some fuel is ran out. I have scheduled to have the gas tank replaced but the fee is around $150.

Car stalls after fill up and it's in the middle of the road. Won't clear up until gas goes down.

Everytime I fuel up no matter how much fuel I put in my car will stall multiple times while I'm driving afterwards, including inside and intersection.

After filling my car with gas it runs rough and stalls several times while moving. After restarting it several times it seems ok until the next time I fill the gas again. When it stalls it sounds like the drivetrain is messing up. It does this city highway turning or straight. This has been happening regularly for at least 6 weeks only right after filling and sporadically for about 4 months or more.

Recently bought this car took it to the shop because the car was cutting off on its own whether parked or in drive which is very dangerous. Had it checked out and it came up with a code for crankshaft position sensor, got that changed the code went away but the car still turns off on its own and no codes show up. Crankshaft has now been changed 2 times&& the electrical things were checked just to be safe!&& a few days ago I was driving maybe about 35mph & the car decelerated on its own and I couldn't accelerate had to turn the car off then back on.

The car shuts down to a crawl . Can't get any codes from it. First time it happened was on the highway pulled to the side of the road and restarted ran fine for the rest of the day. Getting worst every since now sitting in the driveway no codes afraid to put the family in it. I think Dodge discontinued because they can't keep up with the problems.

Contacting the dealer ASAP to see if they have others with same issue.

When car has just been filled up it begins to stall. It will stall pulling out of the gas station. Then it will stall again while driving on the way back to the house turning corners, at stop lights or just driving straight. It does not make any loud noises it just cuts off while driving. It only seems to happen the first day or two after filling up. (I do not drive very far) then it drives normal until the next time the car gets filled up. Then the car will stalls again.

Without warning, the car shuts down. This first occurred at a red light. The car just shut off unexpectedly and I was able to turn the key and restart it without problems. The engine shuts off while at a stop, while driving at lower speeds, while driving at high speeds, in town driving, highway driving, when it's hot outside, when it's cool outside, when idling. There are no dashboard lights (engine, oil, etc). There are no sounds, no shuddering, no kicking. My only indication that the car has suddenly turned off is that the tach needle goes immediately to zero. I have been able to use the momentum of the vehicle to pull off the road at which time I turn the key to off, wait a moment, and turn it back on. It restarts without problems. If I try to restart too quickly, there seems to be a hesitation in starting. We have attempted to repair many parts on the vehicle but it has not cured the problem.

Post fill up at local service station engine started cutting out then the check engine light came on. Luckily the wife was close to house and she made it back home. I pulled code p0300 which is a random misfire detected as per Chrysler specs. Verifying all plugs were in good working order by pulling two at a time. I reset the pcm by disconnecting the battery and pulling fuse #11 under the hood. The check engine light turned off and the problem was gone. Since the incident I have felt unsafe putting my wife and kids in the vehicle. Post fill up a week later same thing. I performed the same steps to remedy the problem. I do not feel I have received bad gas as my whole subdivision (2,600 homes) utilizes this local service station. The 2005 Dodge Magnum rt has been pampered and all scheduled maintenance performed.

I stopped filling the car up all the way and the problem stopped. The dealer said it is not our problem. I now find out it was a know issue and many people have the same issue.
