The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Magnum. While driving approximately 25 mph and attempting to brake, the brake pedal depressed all the way to the floor and failed to stop the vehicle. The contact placed the vehicle into park and it came to a stop. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure recurred on one other occasion while driving approximately 25 mph and the steering wheel dropped down and seized. The contact crashed into the rear of another vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained injuries that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a lot and not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 154,000.

Had filled up gas tank, upon pulling out experienced engine hesitation and lack of power. A few minutes later while passing though a major intersection with 3 children in car, vehicle stalled, causing loss of power steering and of course any means of propulsion. The vehicle started again but stalled three more times before returning home. This is an extremely hazardous situation which can endanger lives in a high speed and high traffic situation.

For the last 60 to 90 days , my car has being turning off several times . I took it for maintenance and everything was updated, brakes , oil change . I was advised it was my fuel tank . This needs to be fixed ASAP , I drive my children with me all the time .

While driving vehicle car will stall and only give about 5percent power. It can happen anytime has happened multiple times. Dealer had vehicle for a month and cannot determine the issues. I was almost hit by moving vehicles multiple times.

Time: after a fuel refill earlier in the day (always ask gas station attendant to -not- top off the tank and usually provide an exact number of gallons to make sure the gauge will read just under full after the gas refill) event: car stalled while being driven at about 25mph this is a safety issue as the car will stall at just about anytime (on the highway, making a turn, driving along suburban roads). At this time the only solution I have been able to implement is to rev the engine significantly fast after the refuel and/or drive in 1st or 2nd gear (by downshifting via the transmission gear shifter) for at least 10minutes of driving time. It has now been 6 months since the last activity on the current NHTSA pe13-016 investigation (last activity referred to on the website was August of 2013). This is a safety issue and a recall is clearly needed to address this safety issue. Can someone at NHTSA please post an update on the investigation?.

After filling up with gas, upon driving the car will die. At approximately 5mph the car will suddenly die and will not respond. Car will not start until after a few minutes of sitting. No cel lights or codes thrown.

I have never received any recall for Chrysler for the Dodge Magnum 2006 since I had it for 6 yrs+exited the freeway, and made turn to head towards my designated location. As soon as I cross over the first light ( going the speed limit) my vehicle lost control and accelerated more speed without me able to control the steering wheel causing the car to jerk all over the street. (unable to control steering and brake). Lost control went off the road instantly hit a tree and spun several times until I hit another tree,and that is what made the vehicle crash and come to a stop.

After filling my car and driving on the 710 freeway, while getting on the freeway the car just stalled. The steering got hard to turn as the vehicle was stalled. I managed to cruise to the side of the road and got the vehicle to start again. While driving it did it 2 more times until my gas started to go down. This happens almost every time I fill up the vehicle.

The front end had to be welded back together and the it is pretty messed up. And front wheels bar might come aloose when turing is made hard. You can see where it was fix at on the bottom in the front the frame was reck pretty hard.

I have had to repair a leak in the power steering hose twice with the last year. The manufacturer is aware of the failure;however, did not offer any assistance.

The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Magnum. While driving between 40-50 mph, the vehicle vibrates violently. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer six times. They were able to duplicate the failure, but were unsure of what caused the vibration. The dealer rotated the tires, but this did not correct the failure. He purchased an extended warranty just in case. The failure mileage was 3,000 and current mileage was 11,000.

My 2006 Dodge Magnum needed new tierod ends and new suspension tension arms at under 45,000 miles. Chrysler canada and the dealers acknowledge that this is the number one repair for the Magnum, but refuse to correct or recall the vehicles.

The tires on my 2006 Dodge magunum rt may be suspect. However, when the car was given a four wheel alignment at about 6000 miles, it was found to need major adjustment at all four wheels. This car had not hit anything to knock the wheels out of alignment so I have to assume that the car was poorly assembled. I now have about 21000 miles on the car and I still feel that the car has very unpredictable steering. I hope that the cause is tires which I can replace (much too early). But I fear that there may be a steering rack problem.

- the contact stated that while driving his 2006 Dodge Magnum if the vehicle goes over 30 mph the vehicle pulls to the right excessively. The contact has taken the vehicle to the dealership(lums auto center) ten times and they have attempted to re-align the vehicles front end, as well as, changing the vehicles tires. The contact stated that the service manager contacted the manufactured on 01/03/07 told the manufacturer that were not able to repair the vehicle and they needed guidance. The manufacturer stated that they will get back to dealership once they researched the issue ( case reference number 15849994). The contact can provide copies of all his invoice repaired if needed.
