2006 CHRYSLER 300C Complaints

AFTER RE-FUELING VEHICLE, CAR STALLED AT 5 INTERSECTIONS. VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO RESTART. VEHICLE WOULD NOT ALWAYS GO BACK INTO GEAR AFTER RESTARTING UNTIL SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WERE MADE. AFTER BURNING OFF A FEW GALLONS OF FUEL ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE NO LONGER STALLED/MISFIRED. TANK WAS NOT "TOPPED-OFF" WHEN FILLED, IT WAS FILLED UNTIL THE PUMP STOPPED AUTOMATICALLY. STALLING OCCURS EVERY TIME VEHICLE IS FILLED TO FULL. *TR

VEHICLE STALLS SEVERAL TIMES AFTER FILLING UP THE GAS TANK, MOSTLY WHILE IDLING. AND, IT IS DIFFICULT TO RE-START AFTER STALLING. ENGINE ALSO RUNS "ROUGHER" AFTER FILL-UP. PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN WORSE OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS. TOOK 300C TO LOCAL MECHANIC WHO SAYS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE GAS TANK OVERFLOW VALVE. SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE GAS TANK OR NEVER COMPLETELY FILL IT UP. IT SEEMS THAT WITH ALL OF THESE SIMILAR SAFETY COMPLAINTS, CHRYSLER SHOULD FIND AN ALTERNATIVE FIX. *TR

AFTER FILLING UP THE GAS TANK THE CAR STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES AND WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO START. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT WOULD RUN PROPERLY. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK. THE SOLUTION HAS BEEN TO NOT FILL THE TANK. CHRYSLER KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM--THE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RECREATE IT IN THEIR TEST. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 85,000.

AFTER FUELING, FILLING UP, THE CAR WILL STALL SEVERAL TIMES BOTH WHILE STOPPED AND WHILE MOVING SLOWLY (10-15MPH). IF YOU ARE MOVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS 45-70MPH THE CAR WILL CUT OUT CAUSING THE CAR TO JERK AND THEN RESUME. IT HAS HAPPENED 3 OR 4 TIMES SINCE NOV 2013. IT HAPPENS AFTER THE CARE IS REFUELED. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR SINCE IT WAS NEW AND IT ONLY STARTED THIS BEHAVIOR RECENTLY. *TR

AFTER FUELING MY VEHICLE I DROVE ABOUT 300 FEET AWAY FROM THE GAS STATION, AND MY CAR COMPLETELY STALLED OUT WITHOUT RESTARTING FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES. AFTER GETTING THE CAR TO RESTART I DROVE FOR ANOTHER 5 MILES AND THE CAR STALLED OUT AGAIN. AFTER THE SECOND STALL I LET THE CAR SIT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND DROVE AWAY. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE, IT HAS HAPPENED 2 OTHER TIMES BEFORE. I FEAR THAT IF THIS KEEPS HAPPENING WITH NO RESOLUTION FROM CHRYSLER PEOPLE MAY HAVE TO REPORT SOMETHING WORSE THAN JUST THE CAR STALLING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300 C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE AND DRIVING 30 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000. UPDATED 02/27/14*LJ UPDATED 02/27/14 UPDATED 2/26/14*CN

I WAS EXITING A HIGHWAY VIA AN OFF RAMP. WHEN I CAME TO A STOP AT THE INTERSECTION THE ENGINE STALLED OUT. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE ENGINE RESTARTED AND THE CAR DROVE NORMALLY. I HAD FILLED UP THE GAS TANK AT PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. *TR

AFTER MANY INCIDENTS WE HAVE DETERMINED THAT AFTER FILLING WITH FUEL, THE VEHICLE STALLS MANY TIMES IN APPROXIMATELY THE NEXT 5 MILES, MAKES THE VEHICLE VERY SCARY TO DRIVE. DIFFICULT TO GET THE WHOLE FAMILY AND STATION ATTENDANTS TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS CAR CAN NOT HAVE A FULL TANK OF GAS. TERRIBLE FAILURE THAT IT SEEMS CHRYSLER IS IGNORING... *TR

AFTER FUELING UP ABOUT 1 MILE LATER AS I LEFT A RED LIGHT THE MOTOR JUST STALLED AS SOON AS IT TOOK OFF WITH NO WARNING NO POWER STEERING I COULDN'T CONTROL THE VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROAD HAD TO PUT THE CAR AND PARK AND RE START THE MOTOR IT HAPPENS WHENEVER I REFUEL VERY DANGEROUS. *TR
