2006 DODGE CHARGER Complaints

RECENTLY, AFTER PUMPING GAS INTO MY CAR AND AFTER DRIVING FOR A FEW MOMENTS, THE CAR STOPS AS I APPROACH A STOP SIGN OR A LIGHT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME IMMEDIATELY AFTER AT LEAST 3 RECENT GAS FILL-UPS. I SHUT OFF MY CAR AND START IT UP AGAIN AND AFTER DRIVING A SHORT PERIOD, IT HAPPENS AGAIN. THIS ONLY HAPPENS AFTER I PUMP GAS INTO MY VEHICLE (2006 DODGE CHARGER R/T). THIS HAS HAPPENED ON CITY STREETS AS I AM FEARFUL OF GOING ON THE EXPRESSWAYS WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF IT STALLING AND STOPPING. I BELIEVE THERE IS A FAULTY VALVE OR GAS TANK SITUATION.

AFTER REFUELING VEHICLE IT WILL STALL AT LOW STEEDS. SOMETIMES IT WILL STALL AT A STOP AND OTHERS WHEN MAKING A TURN IT WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS SO IT MOSTLY THE CAR SITS IN THE GARAGE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED RECALL NOTIFICATIONS FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V313000 (AIR BAGS) AND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V352000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. JIM FALK MOTORS OF MAUI (260 HANA HWY, KAHULUI, HI 96732, (808) 270-2600) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

-THE SUNROOF WILL NOT ALWAYS CLOSE ALL THE WAY. IT WILL REOPEN ITSELF UPON EXITING -MY CAR STALLS OFTEN WHENEVER I ACCELERATE, IT SEEMS THE GAS HAS TO "CATCH UP" THIS UNCOMFORTABLE/UNSAFE.) HOME. ALSO, IT IS EMBARRASSING FOR MY CAR TO 'CONK OUT'. - I AM CURRENTLY BROKEN DOWN DUE TO THE FUEL PUMPS' INCORRECT ASSERTIONS OF GAS. DISAPPOINTED ANDNEED ASSISTANCE TO REPAIR SAID ISSUES. THANK YOU

AFTER FILLING GAS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE BEING STOPPED AT LIGHTS. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD ALL EMISSIONS COMPONENTS REPLACED EXCEPT FOR THE EVAPORATOR CANISTER AND FUEL TANK. UNKNOWN AS OF YET IF THE VEHICLE STALLS UNDER HIGHWAY CONDITIONS, BUT CLOSE TO BEING HIT IN THE REAR WHEN VEHICLE STALLS AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS.

ON MY 2006 DODGE CHARGER, AN UNPRECEDENTED MECHANICAL PROBLEM HAPPENED WITH THE IGNITION. IT IS UNPRECEDENTED AS IT WORKED PERFECTLY PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT. THE IGNITION WILL ONLY TURN FROM 'OFF' TO 'A/C' AND FINALLY TO 'ON' BUT IT WILL NOT TURN ANY FURTHER TO 'START'. THIS MEANS THE ENGINE CAN NOT BE STARTED. WITH FURTHER RESEARCH, IT BECOMES APPARENT THAT SAME GENERATION CHARGERS AND MAGNUMS ARE AFFECTED BY THE SAME PROBLEM, WITH OWNERS REPORTING PROBLEMS WITH THE ACTUATOR PIN. MY CAR IS STATIONARY AND AS OF LATE CAN'T MOVE WITH AN OUTSIDE SOURCE.

AFTER REFUELING AND IF I LEAVE THE PUMP, BUT NOT THE STATION, I EXPERIENCE BUCKING AND/OR STALLING AND LOSS OF STEERING AND BRAKES. THIS HAPPENS EVEN UP TO A COUPLE OF MILES OF DRIVING. MY CAR BUCKS VIOLENTLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND EVEN STALLS. IF I STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT, IT STALLS. IT HAPPENS ON A SOFT OR HARD ACCELERATION. I TRIED THEM BOTH. IF I DO LEAVE THE STATION IMMEDIATELY, IT WILL THEN HAPPEN ON A CITY STREET, ROAD, EVEN ON THE INTERSTATE. IT HAPPENS AFTER EVERY FILL-UP, SO TRAVEL IS NOT ONLY UNNERVING, IT'S UNSAFE... LOSING STEERING OR BRAKES. THEY TOLD ME NOT TO TOP OFF AT THE GAS PUMP. I DON'T. IT HAPPENS ON THE FLAT, UP HILL, DOWN HILL, TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT, WARM WEATHER OR COLD WEATHER, HIGH OR LOW HUMIDITY, IT STILL HAPPENS. I WAS TOLD THAT IT IS ABOUT A $1500 FIX. IF I HAD $1500, I WOULDN'T BE DRIVING A 13 YEAR OLD CAR.

AFTER FILLING UP GAS TANK (NOT TOPPING OFF AT ALL) THE CAR WILL STALL RANDOMLY FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AFTER FILL UP EVEN WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. VERY DANGEROUS. STEERING IS LOST AND EVEN WHEN RESTARTING IT TAKES A SECOND FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO ENGAGE WHEN PUTTING THE CAR IN DRIVE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH MY VEHICLE FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW.

SOME DAYS YOU COME OUT AND CRANK VEHICLE AND IT JUST CUTS OFF ON YOU WILL YOU RUN DOWN THE ROAD IT MAKES A BEEP NOISE AND CUTS OFF ON YOU IF YOU STOP AT A LIGHT IT CUTS OFF ON YOU THIS HAPPENS RECENTLY ALMOST EVERYDAY

ENGINE SHUTS OFF AT ANY SPEED. SPENT OVER $6,000 AT DEALERSHIP STILL HAS SAME PROBLEM. VERY VERY DANGEROUS AT FREEWAY SPEEDS LOSE OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WHEN THE ENGINESHUTS DOWN. WILL RESTART AND DRIVE AFTER MALFUNCTIONING.
