2005 DODGE MAGNUM R/T STALLING. MY MAGNUM HAS HAD INTERMITTENT STALLING PROBLEMS AFTER FILLING WITH FUEL, SITUATION OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AS WELL AS WHEN STOPPED AND IDLING. VEHICLE WILL RESTART AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, THEN WHEN MOVING WILL STALL AGAIN. VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER, STEERING. AND BRAKES. STALLING OCCURRED ON CITY STREETS, AND ON HIGHWAY, VEHICLE'S SPEED VARIED FROM IDLE, UP TO 65 MPH. *TR

AFTER FILLING TANK AT GAS STATION, ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPPED WHILE TURNING OUT OF STATION. HAD TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL AND RESTART, NARROWLY AVOIDING AN ACCIDENT. I DID NOT "TOP OFF" TANK, AS IT WAS ABOUT 3/4 FULL WHEN PULLING AWAY. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM AND ALWAYS MANIFESTS ITSELF AFTER REFULING, OR SOON AFTER. THE PROBLEM IS A FAULTY VENT VALVE THAT CANNOT BE REPLACED SEPARATE FROM ENTIRE TANK. NUMEROUS OTHERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM YET THE MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL.

AFTER I FILL UP THE FUEL TANK WITH GAS, THE VEHICLE STOPS RUNNING. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS 1-3 TIMES AFTER FILLING UP. IT WILL DIE AT LOW SPEEDS OR IDLE AT A STOP LIGHT AND HAS EVEN DIED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD (ONCE IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROUNDABOUT) THIS SEEMS TO. BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THESE VEHICLES WITH THE 5.7 LITER V-8 (SUCH AS MINE). I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AFTER EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE, DID A LITTLE DIGGING AND FOUND OUT THIS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A HAZARD AND I AM WONDERING IF THERE IS A RECALL IN PLACE FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR
