1 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 11/22/2019

I have owned this 2006 Dodge Magnum se v6 2. 7l from new, bought in April 2006, the problem I'm having is with the car stalling, without any notice, happening today when turning left at a stop light and starting uphill. I was able to restart the car after pulling to the right without power, coming to a stop, putting the car in park, and restarting. I made it back home, but the car has been cranking over and not starting when in my garage, this after filling up with gas. I've had this issue happen before from 2006 onward to today, only a few times a year, and changed out the fuel pump relay each time and thought that was the problem, but the car has never stalled while driving before now, only when sitting at a light or stop sign after filling up the tank. The car only has 73,000 miles now after 13 years, I always baby the car and it still looks new. Thanks for any help with this matter.

2 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 06/20/2018

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.

4 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 02/06/2018

The car stalls soon after refilling the fuel tank, the filling was stopped when the pump automatically shuts off. This is a safety concern because it has happened while driving straight on a street, and also while turning onto a highway. The car becomes difficult to maneuver due to the loss of power assist provided to the steering and brakes by the engine. This appears to be caused by a lack of fuel to the engine. The car has restarted, so far, after a few seconds sitting still in the traffic.

5 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 12/02/2017

Hello, in the last 6 months, every time I put gas in, whether I fill it up or not, weather I top it off or not, the engine will run erratically, often stalling multiple times for no reason. It has stalled on the highway, at highway speed, at any other speeds, and going through turns, needless to say, with no engine I have no power steering. I have the strength to keep the car under control, but a less experienced or less strong driver may loose control, possibly with serious consequences. After the car sits for a few hours, it will usually run ok. Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Car kept stalling while driving. On two occasions it was very dangerous as the car stalled in the middle of intersections. Spent $1500 on replacing/fixing parts that never solved the problem. Finally I researched it found out it could be a fuel tank issue.

Failure Date: 03/12/2016

I have had an ongoing problem with my 2005 Dodge Magnum rt 5. 7l 58,000 mi on it. After filling up the gas tank , the vehicle will shut down during driving many times before finally going again. All power including the power steering goes. I didn't relate the problem at first with fueling , this has been happening for a few years. I took it to the Dodge dealer a few years ago , and had the pcm , and other parts replaced , stalled on the way home. Nothing has worked so far. This seems to be an ongoing problem with these vehicles . I don't even trust it to drive on the highway , and I don't like even putting my grandchildren in the car , because you never know, it could stall anywhere, I planned on keeping this car for a long time I still have very low miles on it. , and now I fear it. Dodge needs to do something about this. I haven't seen any recalls on this , but I have seen some people have had the fuel tank replaced stating it is the rollover valve. Just because these cars are older doesn't mean we have to give them up . Dodge please help! we shouldn't have to pay for a problem in 85+% of the cars.

22 Car Stall problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

After refueling my 2006 Dodge Magnum stalled repeatedly. Restarting the car was very difficult. Most of the stalling episodes occurred when the car was at a standstill or moving at 5 mph or less. It also stumbled badly when driving at approximately 50 mph. One of he stalling episodes left me stranded for a short while in a busy intersection causing a traffic jam and creating a very dangerous situation.

23 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 12/19/2014

This has happened twice in row while filling up the vehicle with gasoline. Once the fill up is complete and the car is driven away, without warning, the car will stall and upon restarting will stall again unexpectedly and without warning. This is a serious safety concern which could lead to injury or death with a vehicle that will stall without notice and in traffic.

24 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 12/13/2014

After filling up with fuel the car has a tendency to stall at intersections or stop and turns. Also will surge or loose power at highway speeds. Usually only last for 0-15 miles or so and then goes away until next fill up. I believe this fault is due to a fuel tank issue, that when filled causes fuel to be shut off to engine. Possibility for being rear ended are very great with this kind of problem. Especially in high traffic areas.

25 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 12/05/2014

Just after filling up at the gas station I started the vehicle put it in drive and started to proceed making it about 10 feet when the car stalled causing me to loose my power brakes and steering. I put the vehicle in park and restarted the vehicle. Again I put the car in drive and started to proceed onto the road when my vehicle stalled again causing me to lose my power steering and cross over the yellow line into oncoming traffic. . . . , luckily the car approaching me swerved to miss my vehicle which would have hit him head on. I then proceeded to the expressway thinking that maybe my injectors or something got clogged during the fill up so I thought that maybe if I were to get the vehicle going faster making more fuel go thru the fuel system and injectors that maybe whatever it was would unclog it. , this was definitely a bad idea now even though the vehicle did accelerate up to 65 mpg it then decided to stall again causing me to loose my power brakes and power steering at a high rate of speed. I was able to get the vehicle to the side berm and restart it luckily not causing any accidents and nursed the vehicle home having it stall 6 more times. I got home and googled my problem to find that similar Dodge and Chrysler vehicles with the same years and motors and fuel system were having the same problems. These cars were the 2006 chargers and also the Chrysler 300. It seems that there already seems to be an open case (# pe13-016) for this same problem. I called the Dodge customer service and they said there is nothing they can do for my vehicle. I don't understand. . . , this is the same engine and fuel system as the other cars that were mentioned in the other case and I'm experiencing the same life threatening problems as those other vehicles in question. Dodge knows there's a problem with the Magnum r/t but is doing nothing to fix it. It's a shame.

26 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 11/15/2014

Purchased a used 2005 Dodge Magnum rt 5. 7 (as is no warranty )on 11/15/14. On the drive home from the dealer, filled the car with fuel and the engine was hard to start and after it started ran for a short time and stalled. After several start stall cycles near the gas station got the car on the interstate and it lost power at speed and ran rough for short periods but did not stall. After aprox. 10 minutes of highway speed the car ran fine. Two weeks later after fill up had the same stalling issues. Having read these cars have history of these issues, I attempted to lower the fuel level by driving the car. The car started and about a 1/2 mile from the house stalled in a busy intersection. Unable to restart the car, had to get towed home. The car started right up when it came off the tow truck. Siphoned 5 gal from fuel tank & can't duplicate failure. No error indications during failures.

27 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 10/26/2014

We have a 2005 Dodge Magnum. The car would stall and shut off. We had the fuel pump replaced, instead of a recall, they changed it out with a lifetime warranty on the fuel pump. The problem is, the fuel pump hasn't worked, it¿s made my car worse. After waiting 5 months for a replacement, my car still doesn¿t work. I cannot drive the car, it¿s way too dangerous. I cannot believe that there wasn¿t a recall. I have read plenty of blogs online and there are others out there that this hasn¿t worked for either. Re open the damn case and get our cars fixed.

29 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 08/22/2014

When the gas tank is filled, the motor cuts out and stalls when driving, I have to keep the tank at half way to avoid this. My wife filled it up and it stalled on her while she was making a left hand turn in traffic. My child was in the car as well. It appears that this organization as well as Chrysler was aware of this situation. I never received any notification and have been dealing with it for some time now. This is unacceptable as my whole family was at stake! please advise the next course of action. I am going to contact my local dealer as a start. Attaching a news article on the situation. .
