STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING AFTER I FILL IT UP WITH GAS. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND TWICE WHILE I WAS AT AN INTERSECTION ON THE TAKE OFF...IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE RIDING DOWN THE ROAD RIGHT AFTER I FILLED IT UP WITH GAS. I MAKE SURE THE CAP IS TIGHT AND I DO NOT OVERFILL TANK, WHEN GAS PUMPS STOPS, I DO NOT ADD ANYMORE. IT HAPPENS ONLY AFTER FILL UP AND AFTER IT SHUTS OFF, OR JERKS SEVERAL TIMES IT SEEMS TO RUN OK. IT IS VERY SCARY AND THERE IS NO WARNING WHEN IT HAPPENS.

STALLS AFTER REFUELING. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND WE HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED BY CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS KNOW PROBLEM!

SENDING ANOTHER LOG. NOT SURE MY COMPLAINT WENT THROUGH. SINCE BEGINNING OF 2014 MY 2006 CHRYSLER 300C HEMI INTERMITTENTLY STALLS AFTER REFUELING. IT OCCURS IMMEDIATELY AFTER A REFUEL AND USUALLY WHEN YOU ARE AT A LOW SPEED TO STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, STOP SIGN, OR IT CAN OCCUR BY JUST TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED. THIS CAN OCCUR 'ANYWHERE' AFTER A REFUEL. IT HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES AFTER PULLING ON INTERSTATES AFTER A STOP AT A CONVENIENT REFUEL. I'M ALWAYS FRANTIC DUE TO THE TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATES. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WITH MYSELF AND PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE WITH THIS SITUATION. SOMETIMES AFTER A REFUEL IT WILL STALL 3 - 4 TIMES. I WAS GOING TO TAKE MY CAR TO A DEALERSHIP, BUT WANTED TO READ ON THE INTERNET IF ANY ISSUES AS THIS WERE LOGGED. I WAS AMAZED. CHRYSLER SHOULD PAY FOR THE FIX, SINCE IT IS OVER $1000 TO FIX THE ISSUE, PLUS IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE OF 'NUMEROUS' RECORDED LOGGINGS. IT STATED ON THE INTERNET THAT LETTERS WENT OUT FOR A LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE A LETTER. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW TO GO FORWARD WITH THIS ISSUE.
