TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER 300. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON THE ROAD, ANOTHER VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THE CONTACTS VEHICLE SLIGHTLY BACKED INTO THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE.

THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THE CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN WHEN U FILL THE GAS TANK ALL THE WAY UP. I FILLED THE TANK AND PROCEEDED TO DRIVE AND MERGE ON TO HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT ANY LIGHTS OR WARNING THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE DOING 65. I LOST POWER AND THE VEHICLE IS HAD TO CONTROL. IT TOOK A SECOND TO START BACK UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN I FILL THE TANK ALL THE WAY UP. IT'S AN ISSUE WITH THE GAS TANK OR A VALVE GETTING STUCK OPEN/CLOSED IN THE TANK. I FILLED THE TANK AGAIN AND JUST WAITED AT THE GAS STATION TO SEE IF IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND IT DID. I WAITED ABOUT 2 MINUTES AND THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE SITTING AT THE GAS STATION.. I LEFT THE GAS STATION AS SOON AS I TURNED OUT OF THE GAS STATION THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF 2 MORE TIMES. I HAVE TO EITHER FILL MY TANK TO 3/4'S A TANK OR PURPOSELY BURN GAS WHEN ON FULL TO NOT HAVE THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.

IN 2016 I AGAIN RECIEVED A RECALL NOTICE ON THE TAKATA RECALL, AND ENTERED THIS VEHICLE IN THE ONLINE LIST TO HAVE IT EXPEDITED. I'VE NOT YET RECEIVED NOTICE OF AN AVAILABLE AIRBAG. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED THE CHRYSLER AND IN AUTOMAX FOR NTO FOLLOWING UP TO ENSURE THAT I'M SAFELY REPAIRED.
