46 Other Fuel System problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 03/15/2014

On multiple ocassions, during the re-fueling operation up to full level, the vehicle will stall out. No trouble codes are stored. After restart, and while driving away the vehicle may unexpectedly stall-out on one or more ocassions while stopped in gear, or at slow speed or while accelerating from a stop after the refueling has taken place. When the car stalls out while driving, the vehicles behind you do not know that there is a problem with the vehicle and near accidents have occurred. Additionally, if accelerating from a stop, cross traffic also does not know that there was a problem with your car, and near accidents have again almost occurred becuase you have not cleared out of the intersection at the rate/timing that the other driver would have reasonably expected. These unexpected stalls may occur until such time that the car has burned off some fuel by either time or by higher speeds, but even at higher speeds you can still have some hesitation and "surging". Situation occurs after re-fueling up to full level only, and without regard to fuel octane level, whether cold or hot outside temperature or engine condition.

49 Other Fuel System problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 12/12/2013

I have been experiencing a safety hazard with my 2006 Dodge Magnum rt for several months. When the vehicle is filled up with gas it will stall out when driving down the road. This happens regardless of what speed you are going and occurs every time the car is filled up. I have done extensive research and found that I am not alone with this issue and that the warranty was extended for certain VIN codes through Chrysler. Unfortunately my VIN was not a part of that warranty extension even though I am experiencing the exact issue that this covers. There have been several times where the car has stalled while driving in traffic which could have resulted in a major accident, luckily I was able to avoid any collisions. Maybe next time I won't be so lucky though. . .

56 Other Fuel System problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 06/03/2013

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.

57 Other Fuel System problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 05/01/2013

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.

Failure Date: 09/15/2012

My Dodge Magnum for the last year " total of 4 times" has stalled only after refueling along with the steering wheel locking. There is no warning !. No engine light. ! the car just shuts down . But this last time it almost caused a accident. Too close to a disaster. I had my child in the car . I have read the complaints on this site. And I know I am not the only one this happens to. Why is this not being addressed !!! I have never had this happen to me with any other car I have owned. I baby my car with servicing . I have 134,282 miles. I haven't had a issue with the car ever. Until now. I believe it's a faulty part. This is a life threatening issue. As well as the psychical stress not knowing when my car fails me. Why is this not a recall with the Dodge Magnum fuel system? which causes a vapor lock without warning. Does someone have to loose a life to get this addressed ?.

65 Other Fuel System problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 06/16/2012

I had stopped in the waco, TX area to fill up with gas on my way to italy, TX. I filled my vehicle up with gas, started it, and was entering in some gps coordinates when the car shuddered and died. This was the first time it happened. Since then it has probably happened 18-24 times, always immediately following a fill up at the gas station. Sometimes it dies in traffic, other times the engine will surge as if I had touched the accelerator pedal while sitting at a red light.

66 Other Fuel System problem of the 2005 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 06/08/2012

2005 Dodge Magnum se will randomly stall at stop. Currently this year 2014 car is stalling at every stop or idle. It will also randomly shut off on the highway. I have had the throttle body cleaned then replaced along with various sensors and problem still persists. I have taken it to multiply shops and no fix. When the stall occurs no code will come up but I will get the lightening bolt light on dash come on but will go away once the car is off and then turned on. Once car is turned off it will work normal until at stop or sometime on highway again.

67 Other Fuel System problem of the 2006 Dodge Magnum

Failure Date: 04/01/2012

I was driving when the vehicle failed to accelerate over 55 mph (sometimes it would not go over 35 mph). The failure resolved temporarily when the vehicle was restarted. When this does occur the electronic throttle position and traction control light both come on and the car revs up loudly until it is shut off. It is dangerous when you are going 65-70 mph on the highway and the car drops down to 35 mph. Now that the weather is colder it happens more often including as soon as you start the car. There also is a lot of shaking while on the highway or while braking. I took the car to a Dodge dealer and they said the suspension is extremely loose, which again is dangerous because the wheel could just fall off. I also have the problem that I cannot get the gear out of park at any point. I did find the recall and called Chrysler, but they say my VIN is not part of the recall (why not? it is the same problem). They notated it, but have not done anything to help me. I have to keep my car in neutral and put the emergency brake on anytime I park. There have been several occasions I cannot park in spots because even with the brake on the car still rolls. I have read several other complaints on here and see these are all common problems and may all have recalls and I feel my car should be included in those.
