2006 DODGE CHARGER Complaints

EVERY TIME I FILL MY CAR UP WITH GAS AND DRIVE OFF FROM THE GAS STATION INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC THE CAR WILL STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD I ALMOST GOT HIT IN THE SIDE JUST YESTERDAY. I GOT ONLINE AND DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE GAS TANKS ON THESE CARS THAT CAUSE THEM TO STALL AFTER PUTTING GAS IN THEM.

OUT OF NO WHERE MY CAR STARTED STALLING ON ME, TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC, CLEANED GROUND WIRES, CHANGED O2 SENSOR, CLEANED THROTTLE BODY EVERYTHING LOOKS AND SOUNDS GOOD, BUT THE CAR STALLS, WHILE I'M DRIVING, AS WELL AS AT A STOP, SOMETIMES IT COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF AND I LOOSE ALL CONTROL INCLUDING POWER STEERING, AND SOMETIMES JUST CUTS OFF FOR HALF A SECOND AND TURNS ITSELF BACK ON, IV SEEN A LOT OF POSTS ABOUT THE GAS TANK OVERFILLING PROBLEM, AS WELL AS A IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS, I CALLED THE DEALER BUT THEY SAID THEY CAN'T ADDRESS IT SINCE MY VIN ISN'T REPORTED FOR THOSE RECALLS. MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE RIGHT NOW AND I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT THERE'S REPORTS OF MANUFACTURER FAULTS.

PURCHASED VEHICLE AS IS ON 03/16/2021 AT DATE OF PURCHASE VEHICLE HAD ALMOST 200,000 MILES ON IT IT NEEDED FRONT END LOWER CONTROL ARMS AND BUSHINGS REPLACEMENT ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES THE AIR CONDITIONING DIDN'T WORK DUE TO THE AC COMPRESSOR BEING NO GOOD SO THE COMPRESSOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AS WELL THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WOULDN'T GO DOWN REGULATOR. HAD TO BE BROUGHT AND REPLACED AS WELL ALSO AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE IN WHICH VEHICLE WAS SOLD AS IS WITH A MALFUNCTIONING SEATBELT ISSUE IN WHICH THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEATBELT WAS FASTENED AND WILL NOT UNFASTEN THE PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELT WORKS HOWEVER THE CARS SENSOR BEEPS AND FLASHES INDICATING THAT SOMEONE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WITHOUT THEIR SEATBELT ON EVEN WITH THE SEATBELT BEING FASTENED WITHOUT AN ACTUAL BODY OR WEIGHT BEING IN THE SEAT AT ALL.... SINCE COMPRESSOR HAS BEEN REPLACED CAR HAS STARTED RUNNING HOT COOLANT AND WATER HAS TO CURRENTLY BE ADDED JUST FOR REGULAR DAILY USE

FILLED GAS TANK, DID NOT TOP OFF. LEFT PARKING LOT AND THE CAR DIED GOING DOWN THE ROAD. HAPPENED 3 TIMES THAT DAY. HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE NOVEMBER 2020, DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD COMPLAINT LINE. THIS LEFT ME WITH NO STEERING OR BRAKES. IT HAS NOW GOTTEN TO THE POINT OF THE CAR WON'T EVEN START NOW. I AM AFRAID THAT DAMAGE FROM THIS ISSUE HAS 'TAKEN' MY CAR, AS IT WILL NO LONGER START. WE UPKEEP OUR VEHICLES WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE.

AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK I CAN DRIVE A FEW BLOCKS AND I'D SPUTTERS AND DIES THE FUEL PUMPS ARE FAIRLY NEW. IT STARTS BACK UP AND IT SPUTTERS. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME WE FILL THE TANK.IT HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HER SON WAS DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS DETECTED SMOKE FROM THE HOOD. THE DRIVER PULLED OVER, AND THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE WITHOUT WARNING. THERE WERE NO REPORTED INJURIES. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CONTACT'S RESIDENT. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR IT WILL RANDOMLY TURN OFF AND THEN COME BACK ON WITH OUT HAVING TO RESTART IT. IT'S LIKE IF YOU WERE TO TURN A LIGHT SWITCH ON AND THEN OFF AGAIN, IT'S THAT QUICK. I'M TALKING ABOUT EVERYTHING SHUTS DOWN, THE LIGHTS THE RADIO THE GAUGES EVERYTHING AND THEN SOMETIMES IT COMES RIGHT BACK ON. THERE HAS BEEN SOME OCCASIONS WHERE IT DOESN'T COME BACK ON THO.

VEHICLE ORIGINAL KEYS WILL ENABLE/DISABLE ALARM, UNLOCK THE DOORS BUT WILL NOT START ENGINE DUE TO A MALFUNCTION IN THE (SKREEM) SENTRY KEY REMOTE ENTRY MODULE INTERNAL AND SKIM. WHEN THE WEATHER BECOMES COLD, THE SKIM MALFUNCTIONS WORST MAKING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE. B1A28 ECM MISMATCH WITH SKIM B1A35 UNIDENTIFIED KEY COMMUNICATION ERROR B2224 (SKREEM) SENTRY KEY REMOTE ENTRY MODULE INTERNAL P0513 INVALID SKIM KEY

2006 DODGE CHARGER DAYTONA R/T RANDOMLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GETS PRODUCED. IN THAT SPLIT SECOND THAT IT SHUTS OFF, THE CAR LOSES POWER COMPLETELY AND NO BRAKES OR POWER STEERING. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AND DODGE SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL IMMEDIATELY TO FIX THIS ISSUE. MOST SOURCES POINT TO A FAULTY GAS TANK THAT HAS A LIFETIME WARRANTY NOW BUT SHOULD BE RECALLED.

CAR CONTINUES TO STALL AT LOW SPEED, STOP SIGN, LIGHT, ETC. IM VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN I TURN ONTO TRAFFIC FOR FEAR OF CAR STALLING AND ME GETTING HIT. HAD IT TO NUMEROUS MECHANICS AND NO ONE CAN PIN POINT IT. USUALLY STALLS OUT 5-10 TIMES ON WAY TO AND FROM WORK EVERYDAY. I LIVE ABOUT 4 MILES FROM MY JOB.
