2006 CHRYSLER 300C Complaints

MY 300C STALLED OUT ON THE FREEWAY WHILE ACCELERATING DURING A TRAFFIC JAM. IT TOOK A COUPLE TRIES TO RESTART THE ENGINE. *TR

ENGINE SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING, MAKING TURNS AND WHILE AT STOP SIGNS, INTERSECTIONS. *TR

APPROXIMATELY 2 MONTHS AGO, VEHICLE STARTED STALLING AFTER REFUELING. EVERY REFUEL SINCE WITHOUT FAIL THE VEHICLE STALLS. STALLING OCCURS WITHIN MINUTES AFTER REFUELING AND WILL STALL 2-3 TIMES IN A 5 MINUTES PERIOD. THE VEHICLE PERFORMS CORRECTLY ONCE YOU GET PAST THIS STAGE. BASED ON MY RESEARCH (INTERNET) THERE HAVE BEEN MANY OTHER 2006 CHRYSLER PRODUCTS (INCL TOWN AND COUNTRY MINI VAN) EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. IT APPEARS THE SEPARATOR VALVE AT THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK IS THE CULPRIT. *TR

STARTED STALLING AFTER FILL UP'S APX 1 YEAR AGO. I DO NOT DRIVE IT ALOT. APX 55000 MILES ON IT. FIRST THOUGHT WAS DUE TO CHANGING OCTANE BUT BEEN USING FOR 4 MONTHS . STALLS, BUCKS, SURGES. CLEARED UP AFTER APX 5 TO 10 MIN. *TR

AFTER FUELING CAR, IT STALLS OUT. AFTER RESTART WILL RUN AND MAY OR MAY NOT STALL AGAIN. NOT A VERY GOOD THING TO HAPPEN. COULD BECOME THE CAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT. DEALERSHIP SAYS NO RECALLS ON CAR. *TR

MY 2006 CHRYSLER 300 C WOULD JUST DIE AFTER FILING UP WITH GAS - HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY A FEW TIMES- VERY DANGEROUS. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM UNTIL WE SAW LA TIMES ARTICLE 5/14/13 - THEY ARE FIXING BUT CHRYSLER IS NOT HELPING WITH $$ (REPLACING GAS TANK) CAR HAS ONLY 42K MILES. *TR

AFTER FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL (NOT TOPPING OFF THE TANK) THE CAR STALLED UPON LEAVING THE GAS STATION. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT AFTER SEVERAL TIMES BUT THE RISK IS INCREDIBLE! THE CAR STALLS WITHOUT WARNING AS TRAFFIC WAS ALL AROUND ME HONKING AND I WAS NEARLY BEING HIT FROM BEHIND!! ONCE WAS A FLUKE I THOUGHT AND MAYBE BAD GAS. I WAS ABLE TO CAREFULLY NAVIGATE ON BACK STREETS TO THE HOUSE AND NEVER HAD THE PROBLEM AGAIN UNTIL THE NEXT FILL UP. AGAIN I HAD THE STALLING PROBLEM, LUCKY FOR ME I HAD PICKED A LIGHT TRAFFIC TIME TO FILL UP. I SWITCHED GAS STATIONS AFTER THAT AN NOW ONLY GET GAS AT SHELL STATIONS HEARING THAT THEY HAD THE BEST GAS QUALITY OVERALL. THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED SINCE THEN EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK FULL. THE STALLING PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE OCCURRING NOW TWO NEEDLE WIDTHS BELOW THE FULL MARK WHICH MEANS SOMETHING IS GETTING WORSE. THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL AND THE FIX IS TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK DUE TO A FAULTY VALUE AT THE TOP OF THE TANK. THE COST IS $1,315. THE RISK OF GETTING HIT FROM BEHIND AT ANY SPEED IS INCREDIBLE AND VERY REAL!! I BELIEVE CHRYSLER SHOULD REPLACE THE FAULTY TANKS. *TR
