2006 chrysler 300c. consumer writes in regard to vehicle stalling and malfunctioning pcm module. *as *tr

2006 chrysler 300c - after fueling up got about 1/2mile down the road engine just cut out (not electrical as i didn't loose dash lights) just like the engine stopped for a few seconds and came back on. thought it was a fluke and kept going and it happened again twice, turned around and took the car home happened a couple more times while trying to get home. haven't driven the car since and that was 5 days ago. *tr

2006 chrysler 300c. consumer writes in regards to repair reimbursement.* ld the consumer received a letter from chrysler stating they were extending the fuel tank warranty period because some of the affected vehicle population may experienced a condition where the fuel shut-off float in the multi-function control valve sticks which may result in the vehicle stalling after re-fueling. the consumer stated he experienced the stalling issue, as stated in the letter. *jb

Over the last couple months after refueling my vehicle the vehicle stalls. it has become a given that after i fill my car i know at some point within the first 5-10 minutes i will start having propulsion issues. the car dies when i'm sitting at traffic lights. i'm afraid to try and enter a freeway directly after refueling because if i go to hit the gas it's an accident waiting to happen. i have to go find a parking lot and rev my engine for a while till i think it's safe to proceed. i should have to go through all of this after refueling my car. i did some research and saw the complaints and nhtsa reports. i called chrysler and they said they don't have any records of any fuel issues with the srt models so my best bet would be to go to my dealer for a diagnostic check. *tr

Purchased a 2006 300c srt8 in 2014. this is the 2nd time that this has happened. after the 1st refueling the car stalled and bucked and then after a few miles calmed down. i thought perhaps it was bad gas. during the 2nd refueling, with 93 octane, and just as the fuel clicked off, the engine stalled. no check engine light in either situation. the car was worse than the last time. the car stalled at each light all the way home. this happened approximately 4 times and then it stalled again as i parked it in my driveway. i called the local dealer concerning this and they said they are only ordering 6 replacement gas tanks a month and that 95% of the time an additional flex pipe or tube breaks during the repair procedure and that i would be responsible for this additional cost. what kind of a deal is that? i thought warranty work was to be at no cost to the consumer. *tr

My 2006 chrysler 300c is burning a lot of gas. i don't know why,maybe because it is a hemi. when my gas hand get to a mark are two before empty, you can smell the fuel from the tank. my complain is why are chrysler 300 burning so much gas? *tr

This is not the first time this has happened. it started occurring 12000 miles ago. today was the last straw. after filling my tank over this past year, i've learned that i can only fill my tank to 3/4 full to avoid the stalling and sputtering. this means i have to have my ignition turned on so that i can watch when the fuel gets to 3/4. this alone is a safety hazard as it could spark. today i filled it to 3/4 forever it shut off at the pump just before it got to 3/4... when i started the car the full indicator was full. i knew this meant i would have a scary ride home. it stalled leaving the gas station and two more times while waiting at the first light. i made it about a mile and was making a right turn and it cut out at about 35. i was making the turn with no power and almost hit a pole. i put on my emergency flashers and was almost rear ended. please explain why only selected vin numbers were selected against pe13-016. looking online there are multiple complaints and i did not see any owners ...

Car stalled after refueling. runs sluggish. *tr

I had just filled up the tank and pulled across the street and into a parking lot. as i was pulling into a parking spot the car died. i was able to get it restarted after about three attempts. after leaving the store i drove home and it died on me at the end on the parking lot as i was pulling into traffic. it died once more as i was driving through a residential area at approx. 25 mph. after i got it home, i allowed it to idle in the driveway for about 5 minutes with no problem. after eating dinner i took it for a drive and it happened again at an intersection. it died and took about five attempts to get it restarted. *tr updated 10/1/2014 *js

On april 9th at approximately 6:00 p.m. i filled my car with fuel until the pump shut off. after replacing the fuel lid i drove about 1/4 mile and stopped at a traffic light to make a left turn. almost as soon as i stopped the engine started to run rough, as if it were running out of fuel and stopped. i placed the car in neutral, started the engine and drove another block before stopping at another traffic signal. again, the engine sputtered and stopped. i got it started and reached park manor nursing home and shut the engine off while i went to visit. when i left the nursing home, i went down the driveway and about 1/8 mile to a 5 lane intersection that had a traffic signal. the engine sputtered and stopped again just as the light turned green. i had to quickly put the car in neutral to restart it then carefully let off the gas pedal enough to put the gear shift back in "d" and drive away. this was the first time i experienced any engine stops, but it seems to be pretty dangerous, ...

My chrysler 300c hemi started idling rough and showing code p0300. oil/plugs were changed, and my car worked well for ~500 miles. after which the low oil level light chimmed. after taking to the dealer the oil pressure switch was replaced and all was right. close to a month later, while stopped at a rail crossing the car stalled with error code p1520. i checked the oil which was low and added to the correct level. in the oil, there was no discoloration or anything to cause alarm. i started the engine up and while the p1520 was gone i had the p0300. after removing the manifold small aluminum pieces where found inside. plugs that were close to 4k miles old were ash covered and throttle body. valves and cylinder #3 head need to be replaced. *tr
