2006 CHRYSLER 300C Complaints

BACK IN FEB.2014 YOU CLOSED AN INVESTIGATION ON THE 2006 CHRYSLER 300C SAYING IT WAS A GAS TANK CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL BECAUSE CHRYSLER SAID THEY WOULD REPLACE THE GAS TANKS. IF YOU WOULD HAVE DONE YOUR JOB RIGHT. YOU WOULD HAVE SEEN THERE WAS MORE THEN GAS TANK PROBLEMS. THERE ARE HUNDRED'S OF US STILL HAVING STALL PROBLEMS. THE DEALERSHIPS DON'T HOW TO FIX THESE VEHICLES. AND CHRYSLER ACTS LIKE THERE'S NO PROBLEM. GO TO WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM. THERE ARE 32 COMPLAINTS JUST ON THEIR SITE. THERE'S ALL KIND OF PEOPLE IN CHRYSLER FORUMS THAT DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN IN ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THEIR ENGINES STALLING WHAT DO PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE YOU GUYS DO YOUR JOB. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF AND IT'S YOUR JOB TO MAKE SURE THEY DO. ON MY 2006 300C CHRYSLER REPLACED THE GAS TANK AND THE CAR STILL STALLS. I'VE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED TWICE BECAUSE THEIR FAILURE TO FIX THEIR MISTAKES.

WHILE DRIVING CAR RANDOMLEY HAS M0MENTARY LOSS OF POWER. THERE IS A BELL SOUND AND THEN THE CAR RESTARTS, BUT IT DROPS OUT OF CRUISE CONTROL AND SOMETIMES HAS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, OR OTHER DASH LIGHTS. USUALLY LIGHTS CLEAR UPON RESTART. THIS HAS HAPPENED FROM NOV 2019 TO PRESENT.

MY 2006 CHRYSLER 300C STALLS AT STOP LIGHTS. GOING 30 MILES AND HIGHER THE TAC WILL DROP TO ZERO AND WITH IN SECONDS THE CAR WILL JERK AND IT'S RUNNING AGAIN. WHEN THE CAR DIES ALL THE DASH LIGHTS FLASH OFF AND ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THE LIGHTING BOLT, ALL OF THEM AND WHEN IT'S DONE DOING THIS. THE CHECK ENGINE ISN'T ON. SO YOU CAN'T GET A CODE TO READ. DEC. 28 2020 MY WIFE WENT TO THE STORE AND SHE HAD OUR GRAND DAUGHTER IN THE CAR. SHE WENT TO MAKE A LEFT INTO THE SHOPPING CENTER WHEN THE CAR DIED. THE ON COMING CAR HAD TO SERVE TO KEEP FROM HITTING HER. I'VE BEEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT. BEEN TO THREE MECHCANICS AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. IF YOU GO TO ANY CHRYSLER 300C FORUMS, THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY HAVE THE SAME ANSWER DEALERS AND MECHCANICS DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. CAR COMPLAINTS HAS 45 COMPLAINTS ALONE. THIS IS VERY SERIOUS. IF IT HASN'T HAPPENED YET, IT WILL. THIS PROBLEM IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED OR HURT REAL BAD.

CUT OFF WHEN TANK FULL OF GAS CAN'T PUT BUT 3/4 OF A TANK IN IT WHEN ARE GOING SLOW IT STALLS OUT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE UPON FILL-UP. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SHUT-OFF WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, WITHOUT WARNING WHENEVER THE FUEL TANK WAS AT FULL CAPACITY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO FREEDOM CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM BY ED MORSE (815 E CAMP WISDOM RD, DUNCANVILLE, TX 75116) WHERE THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF FAILURE AND REFERRED HER BACK TO THE DEALER FOR ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

7/11-5/12, I TOOK MY 2006 300C HEMI INTO MY DEALERSHIP FOR MY CAR STALLING AFTER I HAVE DRIVEN IT PAST 1/4 TANK THEN FILL IT UP. I WAS TOLD DIFFERENT REPAIRS WAS CAUSING THE ISSUE. ON 5/4/12 I GOT AN ANSWER IT WAS MY FUEL TANK. MY WARRANTY RAN OUT 12/10 THE DEALER WANTED $1500 TO REPLACE THE TANK. I CONTACTED CHRY CORP EXPLAINED WHAT I HAD BEEN DEALING FOR THE LAST 10 MOS. I DIDN'T HAVE MONEY TO REPAIR. CHRY OFFERED TO HELP HAD ME PAY A DEDUCTIBLE OF $245. MY MILEAGE WAS ABOUT 57,000. I WAS THANKFUL FOR CHRYSLER HELPING ME OUT. IN 2013 THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL TANK. I CALLED CHRY CORP AGAIN AND THEY SAID YES IT IS A RECALL & OFFERED TO REFUND ME BACK FOR THE DEDUCTIBLE I PAID. NOW IN 2020 MY CAR IS DOING THE EXACT THING, (125K MI) WANTING TO STALL/DOES STALL AFTER I RAN PAST 1/4 TANK, THEN FILL IT UP. I TOOK MY CAR TO MY PRIVATE MECHANIC, HE TOLD ME THIS IS A RECALL TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID MY VIN # WAS NOT ON THE LIST. I CALLED CHRY CORP EXPLAINED WHAT I WAS EXPERIENCING. THEY TOLD ME THEY DO NOT TAKE 3RD PARTY DIAGNOSIS, I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO A CERTIFIED CHRY DEALER. I DID AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS MY FUEL TANK! CHRYSLER CORP SAID THERE'S NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME MY VIN# DOES NOT QUALIFY, BESIDES THE WARRANTY EXPIRED! ON THE FORUMS I READ SAID THIS RECALL IS A LIFETIME RECALL. I SENT MY WORK ORDERS TO BOTH DEALER & CORPORATE AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID MY FUEL TANK WAS NEVER REPLACED JUST FUEL PUMP. ALL THESE YEARS I NEVER LET GAS TANK GET LOWER THAN 3/4 TANK, IT WAS A HABIT FROM MY PRIOR PROBLEMS. UNTIL 9/14/20 I RAN MY GAS PAST 1/4 TANK AND FILLED UP. AS SOON AS I WAS DRIVING ON SIDE STREETS WHEN I WOULD COME TO A STOP AT A SIGNAL AND START TO GO. MY CAR WOULD DO THE EXACT SAME THING AS 2011-2012! SENDING ALL MY INFO I WAS STILL DENIED BY CHRYSLER TO FIX FUEL TANK RECALL!! PLEASE HELP, TO REPAIR NOW IT'S $2500!!!

THE FUEL TANK LEAKS FUEL INTO THE CABIN AMY ANY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED MORE THAN HALF WAY UP; THAT OR ANY TIME IT IS MORE THAN A QUARTER FULL AND DRIVEN ON A STEEP HILL. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 7 OR 8 YEARS OR MORE NOW...IT STARTED IN AROUND 2012 I THINK, WHEN THE CAR HAD JUST OVER 100,000 MILES ON IT. I AM NEVER ABLE TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK BECAUSE OF IT. , AND IF I NEED TO GO UP OR DOWN A STEEP HILL (AND THERE ARE STEEP HILLS AND DRIVEWAYS ALL OVER THE AREA I LIVE IN), THE FUEL LEAKS INTO THE CAR AND THE FUMES ARE VERY STRONG.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT FROM PARK. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116,000.

AFTER FILLING THE CAR WITH GAS, THE CAR STARTS WITHOUT ANY ISSUES AND DRIVES OFF WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. AS THE CAR SLOWS DOWN WHETHER STOPPING OR TURNING THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF. IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN THE CAR VEERS INTO THE OTHER LANE BECAUSE THERE IS NO POWER STEERING. THE CAR HAS TO STOPPED BEFORE IT CAN BE RESTARTED. ALSO IF YOU ARE ENTERING THE INTERSTATE AFTER REFILLING WITH FUEL, THE VEHICLE WILL REACH THE DESIRED SPEED WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC, AFTER MERGING INTO TRAFFIC AS SOON THE DESIRED SPEED IS REACH AND THE MOTOR SLOWS, THE CAR MOTOR WILL SHUT OFF IN TRAFFIC. THIS SCENARIO WILL CONTINUE UNTIL SOME GAS IS BURNED OUT OF THE GAS TANK. AFTERWARDS THE CARS RUNS FINE. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEY DID NOT CHARGE ME FOR THE INSPECTION BECAUSE THEY COULD FIND ANYTHING WRONG.

MY CAR STALLS 3 TO 4 TIMES WHEN FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK WENT TO LAKE WALES CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP LOCATED AT 21529 US-27 LAKE WALES,FLORIDA 33859 TEL# 863-676-0733 TO GET THE SHUTOFF FLOAT AND VALVE AND FUEL TANK REPLACED JUST LIKE THE NHTSA RECOMMENDS IT'S BEEN 4 MONTHS AND NOTHING IS HAPPENING
