2006 DODGE CHARGER Complaints

MY CAR STALLS AFTER EVERY FILL UP FOR FUEL. I LATER DISCOVERED THIS WAS A COMMON COMPLAINT CAUSING RANDOM FIRES AS WELL AS REAR END COLLISIONS FROM STALLING ONTO FREEWAYS . I PAID $40K FOR THIS VEHICLE. MANUFACTURER NOR EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERS THIS COSTLY AND DANGEROUS DEFECT. I WOULD LIKE FOR THIS PROBLEM TO BE RECTIFIED BY A MANUFACTURES' RECALL OR CONSUMER REIMBURSEMENT. PLEASE CONTACT ME AT [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AFTER FILLING UP FUEL, WENT TO ACCELERATE AND CAR STARTED SPUTTERING, THIS HAPPENED WHILE MERGING ONTO FREEWAY. SECOND TIME WAS WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, LIGHT TURNED GREEN, PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR DIED. WAS ABLE TO COAST 2 LANES OVER TO THE SIDE OF ROAD. CAR WOULD RESTART BUT DIE AFTER 30 SECONDS. HAD TO CAR TOWED HOME. THIRD TIME, CAR DIED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION AND WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED AND MOVED TO A SAFE PLACE. FOURTH TIME IT DIED WHILE TURNING INTO A SHOPPING CENTER. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FAULT IN THE CAR AND SHOULD BE A RECALL AND PAID BY CHRYSLER, LUCKILY I DIDN'T GET INTO AN ACCIDENT WITH SOMEONE REAR ENDING ME. MY CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH A $2000 CHARGE TO HAVE THIS FIXED. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE PAYING THIS, AS IT IS A DEFECT IN THE CAR ITSELF!! *TR

AFTER A FULL FILL UP, WHILE DRIVING CAR STARTED CHUGGING, AND STALLED. AT RED LIGHTS, OR STOP SIGNS, CAR STALLED AND DIED. AT A STOP, GOING TO START THROUGH AN INTERSECTION, CAR STALLED. *TR

AFTER REFUELING ENGINE STUMBLES AND THEN STALLS. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME AFTER REFUELING. OFTEN MULTIPLE TIMES. POWER STEERING AND BRAKES ARE INOPERABLE AFTER STALL.THIS IS AN ALARMING AND DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR

AFTER FUELING THE VEHICLE I DROVE ABOUT 1/4 MILE RELEASED THE GAS PEDAL TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT A CONTROLLED INTER SECTION, THE MOTOR DIED DURING THE TURN. THE CAR DID NOT RESTART EASILY. THE CAR DIED 3 MORE TIMES IN ROUTE TO MY HOME WHICH WAS LESS THAN A MILE FURTHER. THIS HAS HAPPENED THE LAST 5 OR MORE TIMES I HAVE FILLED THE GAS TANK. I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE NEW AND I AM THE SOLE DRIVER. I AM AFRAID THIS MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IN THE FUTURE IF NOT REMEDIED. YESTERDAY I SPOKE TO MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR IS SERVICED, I WAS INFORMED THE FIX FOR THIS IS REPLACING THE FUEL TANK DUE TO A DEFECTIVE PART INSIDE OF THE TANK WHICH IS NOT SERVICEABLE. I THAN CALL THE DODGE CORP. CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER WERE THEIR AGENT READ A PREPARED STATEMENT REGARDING THE EXPIRED WARRANTY. I FEEL THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM WHICH COULD LEAD TO A DANGEROUS SITUATION AS IT BECOMES INCREASINGLY WORSE. THANK YOU FOR THIS FORUM. *TR

MY 2006 DODGE CHARGER STALLED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WITHOUT ANY WARNING. USUALLY WHEN I FILL THE GAS TANK. THE CAR JUST STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I CAN RESTART THE CAR BUT IT WILL HAPPEN ATLEAST 5 OR 6 MORE TIMES AFTER. I USE THE BOOK RECOMMENDED LEVEL OF GAS AT TWO DIFFERENT REPUTABLE GAS STATIONS, WITH THE THOUGHT THAT IT WAS BAD GAS. I DROPPED OFF MY CAR TO MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP AND IT COST ME $130.35 FOR THEM TO JUST LOOK FOR THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID THAT IT IS THE "ROLL OVER VALVE" AND IT WOULD COST OVER $1200.00 TO FIX! *TR

I GASSED UP, AND THEN DROVE OFF. WHEN SLOWING DOWN FOR A STOP LIGHT, MY CAR'S OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND STALLED OUT. IT RESTARTED, BUT THEN SHUT OFF AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO RE-START AND THEN TRAVEL 35 MILES EACH WAY VISITING FAMILY. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN ON DECEMBER 3RD AFTER GASSING UP, IT SHUT DOWN ON ME WHEN I GOT TO WORK IN THE MORNING, THEN STALLED AGAIN ON THE WAY HOME. THEN AGAIN YESTERDAY, DEC. 4TH 2013 WHEN I GOT TO WORK, I BACKED INTO MY PARKING SPOT, AND IT SHUT DOWN. THEN LEAVING FOR THE DAY, I WAS GOING DOWN THE PARKING GARAGE ABOUT TO EXIT, AND IT SHUT OFF BEFORE I COULD LEAVE MY BUILDING. I THEN DROVE IT AROUND THE BLOCK, AND IT SHUT DOWN AGAIN, AND I HAD A HARD TIME STARTING IT. IT FINALLY STARTED, AND I HEADED HOME, AND IT STALLED IN TRAFFIC AGAIN, NOT EVEN 10 MINUTES LATER. I WAS ABLE TO START IT, AND MAKE IT HOME. AND IT'S SITTING AT HOME TODAY, DECEMBER 5TH, 2013. *TR

THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND SEEMS TO BE INCREASING IN FREQUENCY. WHEN AT IDLE, FOR EXAMPLE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, THE ENGINE HAS STALLED. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN LAST NIGHT AS WELL AS THIS MORNING AND IT HAS ME CONCERNED. I HAVE READ THAT OTHERS COMPLAIN OF THIS HAPPENING WITH A FULL TANK BUT THAT IS NOT TRUE FOR ME. I NEVER HAVE OVER-FILLED THE TANK AND EVEN WITH IT BEING A LITTLE OVER 1/2 FULL CURRENTLY AND IT HAS STALLED TWICE. I'VE FOUND THE ACTIVE INVESTIGATION (PE13016) AND WOULD LIKE TO BE ADDED TO THAT GROUP PLEASE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE I CAN PROVIDE TO HELP WITH THIS INVESTIGATION AND POSSIBLE RESOLUTIONS. THANKS! *TR

FUELED THE CAR, CAR STALLED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING. HAPPENS EACH TIME CAR IS FUELED. I HAVE TRIED FUELING SLOWLY, AND FUELING SMALL AMOUNTS, NOTHING WORKS. CAR WILL STALL 2-3 TIMES EITHER WHILE SITTING OR WHILE DRIVING. *TR

CAR STALLED AT STOP LIGHT. TOOK A FEW TRIES TO GET STARTED AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS AFTER REFUELING THE CAR. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED, I AM IRRITATED THAT IT KEEPS HAPPENING. *TR
