I am experiencing an engine stall after filling the fuel tank. I have stalled after just leaving the gas station on main roads and even the highway when traffic is at highway speeds of 65+. There have been no accidents to report to law enforcement so I dont have record of that. I called the local dealer before to ask about the recall but they only said it was not on the list and I did not receive a call back. I would like to take my vehicle in for inspection. The issue has been happening for at least a few years (I dont have an exact time frame) but only this last year did the engine light come on. I had the code checked while the light was on and it was not for the aforementioned issue, so I dont think my vehicle is registering the stalling.

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.

My Dodge Magnum stalls after filling up the fuel tank. It happens shortly after filling up and will continue until the car has been driven about 30 miles. It will stall regardless of what speed I am driving. It will restart after a couple tries.
After filling up gas tank car will stall out. Big safety concern, car stalled while making a turn on city street, lose power steering very dangerous. Happens every time I fill up gas tank.
When filling gas tank to a full condition the engine will die suddenly without warning. The car/engine will stall unexpectedly after leaving gas station often in a perilous position. Does not happen unless car is over 3/4 full of fuel. If the car is filled up it can die anytime at any moment.
After filling up with gas, the engine will stall and shut off at an idle. This happens immediately after filling up the gas tank. Once I make it home after it stalls 2 to 3 time and it sits over night it is fine the next day. The engine stalls when sitting at a red light at idle speeds.
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.
After filling tank at gas station, engine completely stopped while turning out of station. Had to shift to neutral and restart, narrowly avoiding an accident. I did not "top off" tank, as it was about 3/4 full when pulling away. This is a recurring problem and always manifests itself after refuling, or soon after. The problem is a faulty vent valve that cannot be replaced separate from entire tank. Numerous others have this problem yet the manufacturer refuses to issue a recall.
After I fill up the fuel tank with gas, the vehicle stops running. This usually happens 1-3 times after filling up. It will die at low speeds or idle at a stop light and has even died while driving down the road (once in the middle of a roundabout) this seems to. Be a very common problem for these vehicles with the 5. 7 liter v-8 (such as mine). I recently purchased this vehicle used after experiencing this issue, did a little digging and found out this a very common problem. This is obviously a hazard and I am wondering if there is a recall in place for this issue.
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.
When filling up my vehicle the car will shut off while driving, it will shudder and then die all the lights on the instrument panel will go on I will lose control of the vehicle. It only does it when I fill up the gas tank and if I am stopped at a red light or going under 45mph after filling up the tank. If im going 60+ miles it will sputter act like it is going to die but it doesn't.
Engine stalls after filling fuel tank. Called service dept. At nearest Dodge dealer on 1/26/16. Was told this is a known problem which requires replacement of the fuel tank. Service advisor offered to put me on the list, which I agreed to, and then stated there are 10 people on the list, then said they haven't done one of those for about a year. Sounds like the tank vendor is not supplying the dealer with enough tanks, or delaying the shipment of replacement tanks. The stalling problem is the subject of many NHTSA complaints and matter was "resolved" by extending warranty on the tank to lifetime warranty, but this doesn't help if the vehicle owner has to wait for years for the dealer to get a replacement tank.
After filling fuel tank and driving away from station car completely loses power and stalls out. I refuel and top off in a normal fashion, by stopping pump at first cut off. This happens about 1 in 10 times I refuel. No check engine lights and I have replaced, purge valve, charcoal canister, and vaccum leak valve. No help. When it quits, I have to restart, which it does, but even when the engine does not stop completely, it always shudders for a few seconds after filling. There as a recall on these vehicles, but only for 5. 7 liter engines. The problem is the rollover valve. Chrysler replaced the tanks on the 5. 7 lx cars, but will not recognize the problem on the 3. 5 and 2. 7 liter cars. This is a patterrn failure and a safety item.
Engine stalls and cuts out while driving. I have owned this car since new and it has had this issue since the warranty expired. Basically when you fill the car up it will stall until you get the gas level down to a certain point. For years I have been filling the car to 3/4 tank to avoid the issue. This has now happened again on the way back from florida with my son driving. He filling the car up to the point where the pump clicks off. I think driving a car on the freeway at 70 miles an hour with this stalling is a big issue.
Engine stalled while driving minutes after filling the fuel tank. A known problem with these cars. Had to pull over and run the vehicle for 15 minutes before the engine could run steadily without stalling .
After filling the fuel tank car has been stalling, shutting off on me. Been reading about this issue and seems to be the fuel tank called the dealer that wasn't much help. Just bought the car about a month ago happens every time I fill up.
After filling tank and driving away engine idle speed was very rough and decreased about 500 rpm while stopped at a light. Could clearly feel engine shudder. Gas cap was tight and there are no other issues such as check engine lights or drivability. This the fourth time this has occurred and it is always after a fill up. A hessitation while trying to accelerate could cause an accident. I have checked other owners and I am confident the problem is related to a defect in the roll over valve in the tank. Dodge recently issued a recall on the roll over valves (must replace entire tank) for the 5. 7 liter lx cars but not the 3. 5 or 2. 7 models.
Today after filling my car a mile from gas station it stalled at 45mph. It then stalled at every stop I made . Car just dyes loosing power steering and made it interesting to watch motorists behind me scramble to avoid me. Had car towed at my expence to Dodge dealer. They returned a call stating Dodge has fuel tank issues (its all over the internet. With other customers). They said they would call me in approx. 2 months for repalacement gas tank . Back orders. Get to pick up my car tomarrow ,not looking forward to my first drive on the street.
Just after filling my gas tank on this vehicle, I experienced stalling 3 times, including in an intersection. Had the vehicle towed to the dealer. After inspection, they reported that it was the rollover valve in the fuel tank. I alerted them to the Chrysler extended warranty, they reported that my VIN is not covered as part of this warranty. I feel this is unacceptable on the part of Chrysler as it is the exact problem that is described in the warranty. This needs to be extended to all vehicles as it is a huge safety issue as stalling in an intersection is highly dangerous.
After filling tank of gas; engine quits leaving gas station and was almost rear-ended. This has happened the last 5 times we have filled with gas. Seems to run fine after 2-3 miles. Thank you.
After filling the fuel tank, several times the engine sputtered and / or died, at low speed and at a stop.
Engine stalls just after filling the gas tank when stopping at a traffic lights. This was handled under NHTSA action number pe13016 in the past. I understand this was closed on February 10, 2014, but has been recently reopened.
After filling gas tank, car shut off leaving station onto busy street. I was almost rear ended. Car did re-crank within a minute or two. This is a safety issue, especially in heavy traffic. .
Soon after fulling the gas tank of my car it started to stall at very slow speeds. The car cut off completely and the oil light came on. The car started up as soon as I tried to turn it on again. After doing that stalling multiple times, I took it to the dealer and they replaced the egr value. After filling the gas tank again the car began to stall again. When I took it to the dealer a second time they said they would need to replace the gas tank. While the 2006 Dodge cars with the same features have been given a lifetime warranty on the gas tank, I was told there is no warranty on my car for this issue on my 2005 Dodge Magnum.
After filling my gas tank without topping off, my car stalls within the first 300 feet of the gas station and is then hard to start. Once it's restarted, for the next 40-60 miles of driving, my car hesitates and will often stall at any low speeds or stops unless I drop it into neutral and rev it up. 60-100 miles after a full tank, the car will buck when coming out of a turn and then stall if I let off the gas.
Vehicle stalled shortly after filling fuel tank in December, 2013. Restarted immediately, but stalled again, and continued stalling for the next mile or so. Now, every time I get gasoline, I must use caution for the first few miles, as the car will stall at random times. I do not "top off" the tank when filling.
The car runs erratically or stalls after filling the gas tank all the way up. This only lasts for a few miles and then the car runs fine. I was told that this was a known issue and there was a TSB issued, but no recall. If I stop filling a few gallons before the tank is full, there are no problems. I was recently told that Chrysler was extending the warranties on these tanks (pe13016), but was told by my dealer that the extended warranty does not apply to my car, but couldn't tell me why.
After filling the fuel tank to full and driving away from the station it will stall. Sometime right away from leaving the pump or shortly thereafter. Usually about the time it takes to get to the intersection near the gas station. If I am careful to not fill it past 3/4 full its ok. Although I have had issues with it restarting at 1/2 tank now.
After filling up the gas tank my car died about a half dozen times.
After filling up my 2005 Dodge Magnum the car stalls multiple times as I drive home. The stalls seem to happen at lower speeds such as turning in an intersection or when coming to stop at a light. The car is hard to start and leaves me stalled in traffic until it starts again. At higher speeds the car jerks and bucks as the engine dies and restarts. While on the freeway it is hard to maintain speed when this is happening. Research indicates it is a common problem that will require replacing the whole fuel tank. Please issue a recall for this dangerous issue. To get a better picture of how big this problem, ask Dodge to provide sales numbers for replacement gas tanks sold.
The vehicle begin to stall or shut-off after filling tank up, if it did not shut-off the car, it (car) would shutter for a couple of miles before car ran normal.
2005 Dodge Magnum rt (5. 7l v8) stalls immediately after filling up with gas. As soon as I begin to drive the car stutters then stalls. This will happen 2-3 times before running normal. Only resolution so far is to not fill the car past 3/4 full, which is a definite inconvenience. Based on research, there is a faulty sensor in the fuel tank that needs to be replaced.
Upon filling up or topping off the tank,there is a very strong fuel odor even though there is no leakage or visible signs around the gas cap. This odor remains until the car has been run approx. 100 miles, then gos away. The odor is so strong tht I am concerned about a possible fire as has been reported by several other Magnum owners on online forums.
After refueling vehicle to a full tank of gas, the vehicle will stall when driving. In some cases multiple times. There is no warning prior to the stall and the timing of the incident seems random - sometimes right away after fill-up, sometimes a few miles down the road. Only occurs at full tank condition but does occur every time the tank is filled. When the vehicle stalls it is difficult to start back up - power steering and power brakes are lost during this time. Once the vehicle has traveled 10-15 miles the problem seems to go away - until filling the gas tank again. It seems like an emissions systems type of problem - maybe part of the fuel tank venting system. There are other reports of this problem with similar type of vehicles (Chrysler 300, Dodge charger) on the internet.
I started having problems with my 2006 Magnum srt8 this past winter. With absolutely no warning while driving approximately 10 mph in drive, the engine cutoff and lost all power completely. I also lost all power steering and power brakes. Thank goodness I was on a back road. All of the warning lights flashed on and off and then the check engine light came on. I had to put the car back in park, completely turn off the ignition and restart the car. It restarted without any problems. I drove a few more miles and the exact same thing happened. Again, lucky I was on a back road!! I made it home and it stalled a 3rd time just as I pulled it into the garage. Again, completely random while driving!!!! I took it to my local dealership who could not re-create the problem. I paid for the 60,000 mile service and did not have issues again until this past weekend when the same issue occurred 5 times in 2 days. Again, completely random while driving!!. Dangerous. These particular times occurred after filling the gas tank. I have read multiple similar complaints. Something needs to be done before someone gets killed on the road. I will be taking my car into the dealership once again for diagnostics. I am an anesthesiologist and it doesn't take to one to realize that this is a serious safety issue that needs complete attention and a complete investigation. I love my car but I do not feel safe driving this vehicle. Dodge and NHTSA, you cannot ignore this. Please feel free to contact me as I will be contacting you.
