2006 DODGE CHARGER Complaints

EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK THE CAR IT STALLS AND SHUTS OFF. THIS CAUSES LOST OF STEERING AND MAY START IMMEDIATELY AFTER OR TAKE A FEW TRIES. I'VE HAD MY SON WITH ME IN THE CAR WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND I AM AFRAID THAT WE MIGHT BE REAR ENDED OR IT MAY SHUT OFF AND HAVE NO STEERING AT A CRUCIAL TURN OR IN A BUSY INTERSECTION. I SAW THAT THIS WEBSITE CLOSED THE INVESTIGATION BECAUSE DODGE (ALLEGEDLY) WAS SENDING OWNERS LETTERS TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY STARTING IN JAN. 2014. IT IS APRIL 2014 AND THE PROBLEM IS NOT LISTED IN THE DODGE WEBSITE. DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT AWARE EITHER. I JUST TALKED TO DODGE AND MY CAR DOES NOT FALL UNDER THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ANYTHING HAPPENS BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. I HOPE THEY ARE NOT WAITING ON A FATALITY TO ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. DODGE NEEDS TO BE PROACTIVE AND NOT REACTIVE. I SEE COMPLAINT AFTER COMPLAINT HERE ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR

THIS ISSUE RELATES TO PE13-016. MY 2006 DODGE CHARGER FUEL TANK CANNOT BE FILLED TO OVER 3/4 CAPACITY. WHEN IT IS FILLED BEYOND THIS LEVEL, THE ENGINE WILL STALL, PARTICULARLY AFTER MAKING A LH TURN. I HAVE BEEN ENDURING THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS AND HAVE BECOME FAIRLY ADEPT AT RE-STARTING MY CAR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC CONDITIONS AND FORTUNATELY HAVE NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY COLLISIONS AS A RESULT. I UNDERSTAND CHRYSLER NEGOTIATED A SETTLEMENT WITH NHTSA TO TREAT THIS AS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY CONDITION BEFORE A FULL BLOWN RECALL ORDER WAS ISSUED. HOWEVER, EVEN THOUGH CHRYSLER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BEING A 2006 CHARGER WITH A 5.7L ENGINE MATCHES ALL THE CRITERIA TO BE INCLUDED IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, MY VEHICLE'S VIN IS NOT INCLUDED ON THE LIST OF EFFECTED VEHICLES AND REFUSES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THERE IS OBVIOUS CULPABILITY AND CHRYSLER'S PART AND THEY APPEAR TO BE HIDING BEHIND AN ADMINISTRATIVE TECHNICALITY TO AVOID DOING WHAT THEY AGREED TO DO IN THEIR SETTLEMENT OF PE13-016 WITH NHTSA. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE DAYTONA R/T CHARGER. IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR, WITH ~185K THOUSAND MILES ON THE CAR, IT BEGAN STALLING AFTER FUELING. THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY DIE AND CAUSES LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES, AND IS OFTEN DIFFICULT TO RESTART. THIS IS CAUSING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITIONS, AS IT OCCURS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND/OR MOVING THROUGH INTERSECTIONS. BECAUSE THE CAR SUDDENLY STALLS, YOU ARE LEFT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET AND AT TIMES, FAST-MOVING TRAFFIC AND UNABLE TO START THE CAR TO MOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY. *TR

AFTER FILLING WITH GAS THE ENGINE STALLED AND DIED. IT HAS CONTINUED TO DO THIS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED. *TT

FILLED UP GAS TANK, AND AFTER LEAVING THE GAS STATION AND TURNING ON TO EXIT RAMP THE CAR STALLED OUT, AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING. AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE CAR STARTED, BUT STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL THE FUEL LEVEL DROPPED TO ABOUT 3/4 FULL. I EXPERIENCED THIS SAME PROBLEM A FEW DAYS LATER AFTER FILLING UP AGAIN. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND NUMEROUS CHARGER OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. I STOOPED FILLING UP AND ONLY FILL TO ABOUT 3/4 FULL AND I HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE AGAIN. TODAY I CAME ACROSS A REPORT ON THE WARRANTY EXTENSION CONCERNING THIS ISSUE (PE13-016). I CALLED CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE WARRANTY EXTENSION. I AM HIGHLY UPSET AND ANNOYED BY THIS TOTAL LACK OF REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE! *TT

FIRST TIME IT STALED WAS WHEN I FILLED TANK UP AND GOT IMEDIATLY TO HIGHWAY CAR STALLED AS I TRYED TO MERG TO HIGHWAY SPEED .ALMOST GOT RUN OVER BY A TRACTOR TRAILER BEHIND ME.IT TOOK A WHILE TILL I DISCOVERED THAT A FIL UP WILL CAUSE CHARGER TO STALL HAPPENED MANY MORE TIMES AFTER I FOUND THAT IT WAS GAS FIL UP CAUSING THE STALLING THAT IS THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH CHARGER.I CAN ONLY GET SMALL AMOUNTS OF GAS AT A TIME.HELP ME... PLEASE. *TT

2006 DODGE CHARGER R/T THIRD OCCURRENCE AFTER FILLING CAR UP IT STALLED AND COULD NOT START ON FIRST ATTEMPT. EACH TIME FILLING UP I DROVE MAYBE 100 YARDS AND THE CAR STALLS WITH NO WARNING. THEN GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH 200 MILES TO DRIVE GUESSING IF GOING TO STALL WITH A FAMILY OF FOUR IN THE CAR NOT GOOD. I CALLED THE DEALER THEY NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM AND I SHOULD BRING IT IN AND IT COULD BE SEVERAL DIFFERENT THINGS WITH A DIAGNOSTIC FEE $145.00. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND WAS ASTOUNDED HOW MANY CAR OWNERS WITH SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY LARGE SAFETY ISSUE AND MY DEALER WITH MY VIN STATED THERE ARE NO RECALLS WITH YOUR PROBLEM. THERE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE FATALITIES TO FIX THE PROBLEMS DODGE KNOWS ABOUT !! THEY NEED TO RECALL IS JUSTIFIED. I JUST KNOW THE DEALERS WON'T FIX IT FOR FREE. FRUSTRATED DODGE OWNER !! *TT

EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE CAR DIES FOR ABOUT 5-10 MILES EVERY TIME I COME TO A STOP. IT LOOKS LIKE THE ROLL OVER VALVE IS FAULTY IN THE TANK. I HAVE HEARD RUMORS THAT THIS IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD ITEM. IS THAT CORRECT? *TT

VEHICLE STOPPED AFTER FILLING WITH GAS. STARTED UP AGAIN AND SHUT DOWN RIGHT AWAY. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS. COULD ONLY PUT IN ONE INCIDENT BUT THIS IS AN ON GOING ISSUE. IT APPEARS THERE IS AN AGREEMENT IN HAND FOR CORRECTION WHY ISN'T IT PUBLISHED? *JS

REFERENCE PE13-016 AFTER FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK, VERY SHORTLY DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE CAR WILL STALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 TIMES NOW AND WITH OTHER INCIDENTS OF THE VEHICLE TRYING TO STALL AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE INTERSTATE (65-70 MPH), WITH AT LEAST 2 INCIDENTS AT AN INTERSECTION WHERE I FILL UP AT A STATION FREQUENTLY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN, IF THIS DOES HAPPEN AS I AM GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION WITH A LOSS OF BRAKES OR STEERING, IT COULD EASILY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT AND INJURY. *JS
