2006 Chrysler 300c complaints

ENGINE STALLS AFTER FILLING THE TANK. ON AT LEAST FOUR OCCASIONS VEHICLE WOULD STALL WITHIN 20 MILES OF COMPLETELY FILLING TANK. AFTER SECOND INCIDENT VEHICLE TAKEN TO CHRYSLER DEALER FOR A TUNE-UP, HOWEVER PROBLEM PERSISTED. THIS OCCURRED ONCE WHILE ENTERING A PUBLIC PARKING LOT WITH LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES FORTUNATELY THE CAR AT LOW SPEED AND ROLLED TO A STOP BEFORE STRIKING ANYTHING. ON ANOTHER OCCASION THIS HAPPENED WHILE PULLING AWAY FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC NEARLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BE STRUCK FROM BEHIND. TEMPORARY FIX IS TO NO LONGER COMPLETELY FILL THE TANK, GUESSING AT ABOUT 3/4 TANK TO STOP FUELING. PARTIALLY FILLING THE TANK IS NOT A PROPER SOLUTION. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED.

VEHICLE WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. VEHICLE WILL START NORMALLY, HOWEVER THE CONSOLE MOUNTED AUTOMATIC SHIFTER WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE WITH THE PINK PLASTIC TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK LATCH. THE TAB THAT IS CONNECTED TO THE RETURN SPRING FAILS AND DOES NOT ALLOW THE TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THIS WAS DISCUSSED WITH LOCAL SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER VEHICLES. AN INTERNET RESEARCH HAS INDICATED THIS TO BE A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEMS FOR 2005-2007 CHRYSLER, DODGE VEHICLES TO THE EXTENT THAT THERE IS AN AFTER-MARKED ALUMINUM PART TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. IF THE ISSUE IS SUFFICIENT TO WARRANT AN AFTER-MARKED PART TO BE CREATED IT IS SERIOUS ENOUGH TO WARRANT INVESTIGATION AND CONSIDERATION FOR A RECALL.

AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK WITH GAS AND ENTERING THE FREEWAY THE CAR STALLED. EVERY TIME I FILL THE CAR UP WITH GAS THE FUEL TANK WILL JUST STALL. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK AND LINES REPLACED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. WHEN THE CAR SHUTS OFF THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP AND YOU MUST COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK TO RESTART IT; ALL WHILE TRYING NOT TO BE REAR-ENDED BY COMING TRAFFIC. I CONTINUE TO HAVE THE PROBLEM TODAY. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR MAINTENANCE AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE'S NOW A RECALL ON THE FUEL TANK, BUT DUE TO THE MASSIVE NUMBER OF RECALLS, THE PART IS ON BACK-ORDER. *TR

AFTER YOU GET GAS IN THE CAR AND DRIVE AWAY THE CAR WILL STALL AND THEN YOU HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART YOUR ENGINE.THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE IN MOVING TRAFFIC AT THE TIME. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY CHRYSLER 300C IT STALLS OUT SEVERAL TIMES. THE FIRST FEW TIMES THIS OCCURRED I WAS ALMOST KILLED IN A WRECK DUE TO THE FACT IT STALLED IN A MAJOR INTERSECTION. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND VERY FRUSTRATING. CHRYSLER IS DOING NOTHING TO HELP. I READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND IT JUST SEEMS LIKE A RECALL SHOULD BE IN AFFECT. I TRUSTED CHRYSLER WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH A QUALITY PRODUCT THAT THEY WOULD STAND BEHIND BUT YET THEY WON'T. PLEASE HELP THEY VICTIMS OF CHRYSLER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHENEVER SHE ADDED FUEL TO THE VEHICLE IT FAILED TO START. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I WAS TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY POSTED LEGAL SPEED 65MP AS I RELEASED THE GAS PEDAL IT BROKE AND FELL ON THE FLOOR BODY OF THE DRIVER SIDE. I THEN QUICKLY TURNED ON THE CRUISE CONTROL TO NAVIGATE MY SPEED FOR THE NEAREST SAFE EXIT TO INSPECT THE DAMAGE. DAMAGE WAS CLEAR THAT THE GAS PEDAL HOUSING UNIT WAS BROKEN FROM THE SCREW ENDS OF THE UNIT, AS THE HOUSING UNIT IS MADE OF HIGH GRADE PLASTIC. *TR

AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS THE CAR STALLED WHEN EXITING THE GAS STATION IN FRONT OF ONCOMING VEHICLES. WE WERE NEARLY REAR ENDED. THE CAR AGAIN STALLED AT THE NEXT STOP LIGHT, THEN AGAIN WHILE MERGING ONTO THE FREEWAY. WE HAD A FULL TUNE UP PERFORMED ON THE CAR THINKING THAT THIS WAS THE CAUSE, HOWEVER THE CAR CONTINUED TO STALL AFTER A FILL UP. WE ARE NOW FORCED TO LIMIT REFUELING THE CAR TO ONLY ONE HALF TANK TO BE SURE THAT THE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS STALLING DOES NOT OCCUR PUTTING OUR FAMILY IN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. THE STALLING OCCURRED AGAIN JUST THIS WEEK AFTER ACCIDENTALLY ALLOWING THE FUEL PUMP TO CLICK OFF PRODUCING A FULL GAS TANK. EVEN KNOWING THAT WE WERE NOW IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION WE WERE FORCED TO DRIVE THE CAR ON PUBLIC STREETS WHERE ONCE AGAIN IT STALLED EXITING THE GAS STATION, AT THE STOP LIGHT AND SHORTLY AFTER TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM THE STOP LIGHT LEAVING OUR FAMILY STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. *TR

AFTER REFUELING, THE CAR STALLED WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY. ALL THE ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. CAR WAS HARD TO RESTART. AT THE NEXT INTERSECTION WHILE THE CAR WAS STOPPED, IT STALLED AGAIN. THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN INTERMITTENTLY OVER THE YEARS. HAD IT LOOKED AT BY CHRYSLER WHILE STILL UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY, THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. LATELY, THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY TIME WE PUT GAS IN THE CAR. IF DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AFTER A FILL UP, SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL SPUTTER AND TEMPORARILY LOOSE ACCELERATION. *TR

WE HAD JUST FILLED THE GAS TANK AND WERE HEADING OFF TO LAS VEGAS FOR A LONG WEEKEND WHEN AS WE DROVE LESS THAN A BLOCK AWAY THE CAR STALLED. THIS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE, WE RESTARTED THE CAR AND SHE CONTINUED TO JERK AROUND ACTING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL AGAIN. WE WERE VERY CLOSE TO A PEP BOYS SO WE PULLED IN AND TOLD THE CLERK WHAT WAS HAPPENING, HE SAID WE MAYBE GOT BAD GAS (MAYBE WATERED DOWN) AND TO TRY A GAS TREATMENT. WE DID AND IT STALLED AGAIN, WE RESTARTED THE CAR AND DROVE CAUTIOUSLY AROUND TOWN TESTING HER RELIABILITY. SHE SEEMED FINE SO WE DROVE ON TO VEGAS. SHE PERFORMED WELL FOR A FEW WEEKS THEN DID IT AGAIN AFTER FILLING THE TANK SO AGAIN WE ADDED GAS TREATMENT AND THINGS SEEMED FINE. A MONTH OR SO LATER THE SAME THING AGAIN WITH THE STALLING AFTER FUELING. SO FAR THIS HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 8 TIMES SINCE THE FIRST TIME AND ONLY AFTER FUELING. WE ARE NERVOUS TO DRIVE ANYWHERE NOW. WE HAVE USED VARIOUS GAS STATIONS SO NOT ANY PARTICULAR BRAND MAKES THIS HAPPEN. IT CAN GO FOR SEVERAL WEEKS WITHOUT INCIDENT BUT WE JUST NEVER KNOW WHEN IT MAY OCCUR AGAIN. WE LOOKED IT UP ONLINE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE WAS HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND FOUND THAT OWNERS OF CHRYSLER 2006 300C AND MAGNUMS AND CHARGERS ALL EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING. PE13-016 WAS REFERENCED AS THE ORIGINAL INVESTIGATION NUMBER INTO THESE OCCURRENCES. CHRYSLER SUPPOSEDLY ISSUED A LIFETIME EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT ONLY TO THOSE AFFECTED AND NOTIFIED THEM PRIOR TO JAN. 2014. THE REST OF U

AFTER FUELING VEHICLE, VEHICLE STALLS AND TAKES A MINUTE TO RESTART. THIS COMPLAINT IS ENTERED MULTIPLE TIMES UNDER PE13-016 AND CHRYSLER ISN'T MEETING ITS OBLIGATIONS. *TR

WHEN I STARTED PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY IT STARTED TO SHUTTER BADLY AND STALLED OUT. IT STARTED BACK UP BUT IT IMMEDIATELY WAS RUNNING VERY ROUGH AS IF IT WASN'T RUNNING ON ALL CYLINDERS. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HE PUT IT ON THE SCANNER AND A CODE CAME UP STATING THAT THE #6 CYLINDER WAS FAULTY. WHEN RUNNING THE CAR HAS NO POWER AND YOU CAN HEAR A DISTINCT CLICKING OF THE MDS SOLENOID. AS IT CLICK ON AND OFF THE CARS IDLE WAS NORMAL THEN VERY ROUGH. SERVICE RECORDS ARE IMMACULATE, OIL CHANGED EVERY 3000 MILES WITH MOBIL 5-20 FULL SYNTHETIC. SERVICE SUGGESTIONS HAVE BEEN STRICTLY FOLLOWED. THE SOLENOID WAS CHANGED OUT AND IT RAN FINE FOR ABOUT 500 MILES AND THEN IT STARTED DOING IT AGAIN, VERY RANDOM AND MOSTLY WHEN YOU GO INTO PASSING GEAR ON THE FREEWAY THAT'S WHEN YOU TOTALLY LOSE POWER AND IT SHUTTERS VIOLENTLY. WE CANT FIND ANYTHING FOR SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO FIX IT EXCEPT THAT IT MAY BE A BAD COMPUTER OR A CLOGGED OIL PORT IN THE CYLINDER HEAD. BOTH POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS ARE VERY COSTLY AND I WOULD HATE TO SPEND ALL THAT MONEY AND IT NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM COULD VERY WELL CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR

ENGINE STALLS WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS FULL. *TR

AFTER FILLING CAR WITH FUEL AND DRIVE A FEW HUNDRED FEET CAR STARTS BUCKING AND STALLS. RESTARTS AND BUCKS AND STALLS A FEW MORE TIMES THEN RUNS FINE UNTIL NEXT TIME WE FILL UP. WE HAVE STOPPED FILLING CAR UP BUT JUST PUTTING 10 TO 12 GALLONS WHEN WE GET GAS. WE CANNOT FILL THE FUEL TANK UP OR TAKE A SERIOUS CHANCE OF HAVING CAR STALL IN TRAFFIC AS WE HAD A COUPLE CLOSE CALLS. I HAVE ASKED BECK CHRYSLER IF THERE WAS A RECALL OR FIX FOR THIS AND WAS TOLD BY SERVICE MANGER NEVER HEARD OF PROBLEM. I HAVE READ THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING SAME PROBLEMS AND ONLY FIX IS TO PAY OVER A $1000.00 FOR A NEW GAS TANK AS THIS IS ONLY FIX. I HAVE REPLACED VAPOR CANISTER AND VAPOR CONTROL VALVE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. I FEEL CHRYSLER SHOULD FIX THIS FOR NO CHARGE AS IT IS PART OF THE EMISSION SYSTEM AND ALSO WORRY MY WIFE AND I WILL BE HURT OR KILLED BY THIS FLAW IN THE FUEL TANK. I HOPE WE CAN GET SOME HELP TO GET THIS REPAIRED. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

VEHICLES SPUTTERS, STALLS AND DIES AFTER FILING FUEL TANK. CHRYSLER ENTERED INTO AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM TO RESOLVE YOUR INQUIRY PE13-016. CHRYSLER AGREED AS A RESULT OF THAT INQUIRY TO EXTEND A LIFETIME FUEL -TANK WARRANTY ON THE 153,817 EFFECTED CARS. CHRYSLER WILL NOT HONOR THAT WARRANTY AGREEMENT ON MY VEHICLE.. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO ENCOURAGE CHRYSLER TO HONOR THE WARRANTY AND REPLACE MY FUEL TANK AND FAULTY FLOAT VALVE PER THE AGREEMENT THEY ENTERED WITH YOU? PREVIOUSLY I WAS REFERRED TO THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION WHO INDICATES THIS IS NOT A ISSUE THEY CAN PROVIDE ME ASSISTANCE. WHO ENFORCES THE AGREEMENTS NHTSA HAS MADE WITH CHRYSLER? MY VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS DUE TO THE FAULTY FLOAT VALVE AND NO ONE IN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WANTS TO TAKE OWNERSHIP TO HELP. *TR

DOOR HANDLE HAS BROKEN TWICE. FIRST, IT BROKE ON THE FRONT DRIVER DOOR. THE, TODAY, 05/06/14, IT BROKE ON THE BACK PASSENGER DOOR. THERE IS A SMALL PIECE OF PLASTIC THAT HAS APPEAR TO CRACK AND BREAK CAUSING THE DOOR HANDLE TO SEPARATE FROM THE DOOR. ONLINE FORUMS REPORT MANY USERS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. DODGE HAS A DOOR HANDLE RECALL. CHRYSLER AND DODGE ARE THE SAME FAMILY. THIS CAR NEEDS A RECALL ON THE DOOR HANDLE. *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 WHO'S VINS WERE COVERED. WHERE IS A COPY OF THIS LIST AND HOW MANY VINS WERE ON THIS LIST? CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE A STAND AND OWN UP TO RECALLING ALL VINS FOR THIS MODEL MAKE AND YEAR. I'VE NEVER HEARD OF A SELECTED RECALL. I AM DOCUMENTING THIS SAFETY CONCERN EVERYWHERE I CAN AS I AM SCARED FOR MY LIFE AND HOPE SOMEONE TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY AND QUIT BLAMING THE OWNERS OF OVERFILLING THE TANKS. THIS SHOULD NOT BE A CONCERN AND IT ISN'T WITH OTHER MODELS AN MAKE. OWN UP CHRSYLER! *TR

CAR STALLS AT HIGHWAY SPEED, STALLS WHEN I COME TO A STOP. SOMETIMES STARTS AGAIN IMMEDIATELY. POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN CAR STALLS ON HIGHWAY, HAZARDOUS AVOIDING ACCIDENTS. CAR IS ALWAYS MAINTAINED AS MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS. *TR

THE CAR WILL STALL EVERY TIME AFTER I FILL UP THE GAS. YESTERDAY I WENT TO FILL UP THE TANK ( NOT ALL THE WAY FULL ), AFTER I DROVE ABOUT 1 BLOCK, THE CAR STALLED. I HAD TO DRIVE ABOUT 10 MILES BACK HOME AND THE CAR STALLED 8 TIMES ALREADY. IT WAS VERY SCARY BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE CAR WILL DIE ON ME WHEN I'M ON THE ROAD AND CARS ARE BEHIND ME AND JUST VERY AFRAID OF SOMEONE IS GOING TO STRUCK ME FROM BEHIND WHEN MY CAR DIE ON ME SUDDENLY. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED THEN THE FAILURE RECURRED. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED TWO WEEKS AFTER THE FIRST FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO REPLACED THE FAULTY VACUUM CANISTER AND FUEL TANK. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 51,069. UPDATED 6/27/14*CN

CAR STALLED AFTER REFUELING. RUNS SLUGGISH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE THE VEHICLE WOULD OPERATE NORMALLY BEFORE STALLING AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT BUT NO REMEDY WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

AFTER REFUELING MY 2006 CHRYSLER 300C IT WOULD SHUT OFF AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THE CAR WOULD SHUT OFF AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN THIS HAPPENS ONLY WHEN THE CAR IS REFUELED. THIS HAS CAUSED MANY SAFETY ISSUES BECAUSE OF THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND THE CAR STALLING IN THE INTERSECTION. *TR

THE BELOW ARE INSERTS FROM MY CONTACT AND CORRESPONDENCE WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATION, AND THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM ABOUT THE ISSUE WITH STALLING AFTER FILLING WITH MY 2006 CHRYSLER 300 SRT8. THERE IS SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE LISTED AND DOCUMENTED ALL OVER THE BLOGS TO CHRYSLER CORPORATION?S ONLINE FORUM TO INDICATE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN BY YOUR ORGANIZATION AND THE DEALERSHIPS WHO SERVICE OUR VEHICLES, AND IF YOU WANT TO REALLY WON'T TO ASSIST ME IN ENSURING THAT THIS MATTER IS CORRECTED YOU CAN INSTRUCT AND AUTHORIZE AIRPARK CHRYSLER JEEP TO RESOLVED MY PROBLEM WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY OR THE NEED TO CONTINUE WITH FURTHER CONSUMER COMPLAINTS. AS I STATED ABOVE, THIS ISSUE IS WELL DOCUMENTED AND FALLS ON THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION AND THE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS TO RECTIFY WITHOUT ALL THE RUN-AROUND I AM RECEIVING AT THE MOMENT TO GET THIS ACCOMPLISHED. MY VEHICLE NEEDS A NEW GAS TANK INSTALLED TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM AND YOU CAN ASSIST IN GETTING THIS DONE BY PROVIDING THAT REPLACEMENT AND CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP THAT NEEDS TO DO IT.

STARTED TO STALL ON A TRIP TO LA. IN JAN. 2014,STALLS AFTER EVERY REFILL.USUALLY STALLED TURNING ON TO ENTRY RAMP OR ON ENTRY RAMP OF INTERSTATE.NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES .THROW INTO NEUTRAL RESTART,POWER STEERING THEN KICKS IN THROWING ME ALL OVER THE ENTRANCE RAMP. STALLS AFTER EVERY REFILL,I BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR TRIPS THATS WHY THE MILEAGE IS SO LOW,NOW I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT FOR THE PURPOSE I BOUGHT IT. I'M A CHRYSLER RETIREE! TOTALLY UNSAFE FOR MY PURPOSES. *JS

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

WHEN FILLED UP THE GAS TANK AND STARTED TO DRIVE THE CAR DIED. *JS

FILLED UP THE CAR AND UPON PULLING ONTO THE HIGHWAY THE CAR STALLS AND SHUTS OFF.VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR MY FAMILY AS WELL AS OTHERS.I AM SURPRISED THUS FAR,VERY THANKFUL,NO FATALITIES HAVE BEEN REPORTED. *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, SINCE YOU CANNOT PREDICT WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN AND NOTHING SEEMED TO TRIGGER THE FAULTS. EACH TIME THE ENGINE STOPPED, I NOTICED THE OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR WAS DISPLAYED AND WATCHED IT RISE TO NORMAL WHEN THE ENGINE STARTED AGAIN. *TR

FOR SEVERAL WEEKS EVERY TIME I FILLED MY GAS TANK THE CAR STALLED. I WOULD START IT AND IT WOULD STALL AGAIN. SEVERAL TIMES I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED GETTING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN MY CAR DEAD STOPPED ALSO AT INTERSECTIONS. EVERY TIME I STOPPED THE CAR AT A LIGHT AFTER FILL UP CAR WOULD STOP. I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AS I FEARED I WOULD BE KILLED OR SEVERELY INJURED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CHRYSLER DEALER JAN 14, 2014. THEY REPLACED THE FUEL TANK, EVAP CANASTER AND VENT VALVE AT A COST OF $1740.22. I ASKED IF THIS CONDITION WAS UNDER WARRENTY THEY SAID NO. I UNDERSTAND THE WARRANTY HAS BEEN EXTENDED ON THE FUEL TANKS AS PER PE 13-016. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER THEY SAID THEY DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT AN EXTENDED WARRENTY. CHRYSLER IS NOT HONORING THEIR OBLIGATION TO REPAIR THIS VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION. I WANT TO BE SURE MY VIN# IS INCLUDED IN THIS WARRENTY AS I WILL SEEK REIMBURSEMENT FOR THIS REPAIR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL AND COULD NOT BE RESTARTED UNTIL AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE FAILURE WOULD RECUR WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS REFUELED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

2006 CHRYSLER 300C, 5.7L HEMI ENGINE, I HAD DRIVEN THE VEHICLE APPROX, 25 MILES WITH NO PROBLEMS. STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT, WENT INTO THE BUSINESS. WHEN I CAME OUT TO START MY ENGINE, THE CAR WOULD NOT START. THE ENGINE WOULD CRANK BUT NOT RUN. I CALLED ROADSIDE SERVICE FOR HELP. THEY COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO RUN. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THE SHOP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM. THE SHOP REPORTED TO ME THAT 3 CYLINDERS HAD NO COMPRESSION, THE VALVES HAD DROPPED DOWN INTO THE MOTOR, THREE SPARK PLUGS WERE CRUSHED. I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THIS MODEL ENGINE, THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER 5.7 HEMI'S. THE VALVE RETAINERS FAIL AND LET THE VALVE DROP AND CAUSE SEVERE ENGINE DAMAGE. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF I HAD BEEN NOTIFIED. THERE IS A RETRO-FIT AVAILABLE TO CHANGE THE VALVE RETAINERS. I NOW HAVE A CURRENT BILL FOR THE DIAGNOSIS, REMOVAL AND INSTALL A USED ENGINE FOR $8,063.26. THIS CHARGE CAN GO UP IF THE RETRO-FIT HAS NOT BEEN DONE YET. I AM WAITING TO FIND OUT IF THE REPLACEMENT USED ENGINE HAS BEEN RETRO-FITTED. *TR

2006 CHRYSLER 300C, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. TRANSMISSION SHIFTER WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH A PINK PLASTIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK LEVER. THIS LEVER HAS A HOOK FOR THE SPRING TO HOOK ONTO. THE HOOK BROKE, CAUSING THE SHIFTER TO LOCK IN THE "PARK" POSITION. THIS LEAVES THE CAR INOPERABLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING ANY SPEED OR COMING TO A STOP, THE ENGINE WOULD STALL IN A JERKING MOTION. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND RESUMED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REFUELED AND MOST RECENTLY, THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE OR LOCATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENTIRE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 121,000.

AT THE GAS STATION AT LOW IDLE RIGHT AFTER FUELING CAR SHUT OFF. SHUT OFF AGAIN AT LOW SPEED THE NEXT DAY, NO FURTHER FUELING HAS TAKEN PLACE AS OF YET. *TR

THE CURRENT ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL FOR ME IS THE FUEL. I JUST HAD A VAPOR CANISTER INSTALLED THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE BUT IT DID GET RID OF A FEW OF THE PROBLEMS. WHEN I FIRST STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR SHUTTING DOWN AFTER A FILL UP, I THOUGHT THE GAS HAD WATER IN IT BUT IT'S NOT THE GAS. NO MATTER WHAT STATION I FILL UP AT, I HAVE THE SAME SYMPTOMS. THE CAR WILL DRIVE FINE FOR ABOUT 3 CAR LENGTHS, THEN IT WILL HESITATE, CHOKE, JUMP, TRY TO DIE, JERK FORWARD AND THEN FINALLY STALL AND SHUT ITSELF OFF. THEN IT WILL TAKE 3 OR MORE TRIES TO GET THE CAR TO RESTART AND IT MAY DO THE SAME THINGS OVER AGAIN FOR ANOTHER BLOCK OR TWO. THE BOTTOM LINE IS, IN THE FIRST 3 BLOCKS OF DRIVING THIS CAR AFTER A FILL UP, I CAN EXPECT JUST ABOUT ANYTHING AND I KNOW FOR SURE IT WILL DIE ON ME IF I FILL IT UP. IF I ONLY PUT IN 3/4 OF A TANK OF GAS OR LESS, I AM SAFE BUT IF I LET THE PUMP KICK OFF ON ITS OWN, I'M IN TROUBLE. THE ONLY THING THE VAPOR CANISTER DID WAS STOP IT FROM JUMPING AND JERKING, ALL THE OTHER SYMPTOMS ARE STILL THERE.

DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON INTERSTATE AND THE CAR LUNGED AND THEN SEEMED TO BE FINE, UNTIL GETTING OFF THE INTERSTATE AND STOPPING AT THE LIGHT IT WAS VERY OBVIOUS IT WAS MISSING OUT. IT DID NOT THROW A ENGINE CODE UNTIL PULLING INTO DRIVEWAY. I IMMEDIATELY DID A SCAN AND CAME UP WITH A P1414 CYLINDER 4 REACTIVATION CONTROL PERFORMANCE POSSIBLE CAUSES (K452) MDS SOLENOID NO.4 CONTROL SHORT TO VOLTAGE OIL PASSAGES RESTRICTED LIFTER MDS SOLENOID NO.4 PCM WE THEN TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHARGED ME A 125.00 TO TELL ME WHAT I ALREADY TOLD THEM. AND FOLLOWED UP WITH THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME 600.00 TO TEAR IT DOWN AND INSPECT IT FURTHER. SO I DID THE TEAR DOWN MYSELF AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE FOUND TO EXPLAIN WHY A CAR WITH ONLY 92000 MILES ON IT AND 5-20 ROYAL PURPLE OIL AND K&N OIL FILTER WERE CHANGED ON A RELIGIOUS BASES, AND CLEAN COOLANT WOULD CAUSE A PISTON TO BASICALLY DESTROY ITSELF. THE MOTOR HAS TO BE REPLACED COSTING OVER $6000 ALMOST MORE THEN CAR IS WORTH RUNNING. *TR

AFTER FILL UP ENGINE SHUT OFF FIVE TIMES IN TRAFFIC. *TR

AFTER FILLING THE CAR A CHRYSLER 300C STALLS. THIS IS NOW AN ONGOING PROBLEM AS THE CAR NOW STALLS AFTER FUELING. THE STALL OCCURS MOSTLY WHEN STOPPED AT A RED-LIGHT OR DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED. IT HAS NOW PROGRESSED TO INCLUDE WHEN ACCELERATING ONTO A INTERSTATE.THE STALL CAUSES ALL SAFETY SYSTEMS TO FAIL IE. BREAKS, STEERING, ET. I HAVE CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THE CHRYSLER HOTLINE 800-992-1997 AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION, CHRYSLER WILL EXTEND FUEL-TANK WARRANTIES DOES NOT APPLY TO 2006 CHRYSLER 300C MODELS. I WAS TOLD THE MALFUNCTIONING SHUT-OFF FLOAT AND GAS TANK NECK SPLASH ISSUE IS NOT COVERED. *TR

VEHICLE STALLS AFTER FILL UP AT GAS STATIONS. HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES IN LAST 2 YEARS. CALLED CHRYSLER IN REFERENCE TO NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE13016. DESPITE THEIR CLAIM IN THE NHTSA ACTION THAT OWNER LETTERS MAILING BEGAN IN JANUARY 2014, I WAS TOLD THAT AS OF APRIL 2, 2014, THE LIFE TIME WARRANTY HAS NOT YET BEEN MADE OFFICIAL AND NO LETTERS HAVE YET BEEN SENT. AS OF APRIL 2, 2014, CHRYSLER IS NOT HONORING THE CLAIM THEY MADE TO CAUSE THE NHTSA TO CLOSE THIS CASE. FOLLOW UP BY NHTSA IS NEEDED HERE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE 3 TIMES AND THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONED PROPERLY AFTER THE THIRD RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE CHARCOAL CANISTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000.

CONTINUES TO STALL AND ULTIMATELY STOP WHILE DRIVING

CAR STALLS WHEN IDLE, CAR STALLS WHEN AT LOW SPEED, CAR STALLS WHEN STARTING TO DRIVE (AT LOW SPEEDS), ALL POWER/ELECTRIC CUTS OUT INTERMITTENTLY WHILE IN MOTION. *TR

I PREVIOUSLY MADE COMPLAINT THAT AFTER FUELING AT GAS STATION MY CAR WOULD FLOOD AND STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ALMOST CAUSING ME TO BE REAR ENDED BY VEHICLES BEHIND ME. I WAS TOLD BY [XXX] THAT CHRYSLER WOULD BE FIXING THE PROBLEM IN MARCH 2014. TODAY 4-1-2014 I CALLED CHRYSLER WHO STATED EVEN THOUGH I HAVE A 2006 300C MY VIN IS NOT COVERED AND THEY DENIED THAT ANY OWNER LETTERS WERE SENT AND THAT I CANT GO BY WHAT NHTSA HAS TO SAY. MY CAR IS STILL DANGEROUS TO OPERATE WHEN FILLED AND I HAVEN'T FILLED IT FOR YEARS PENDING THIS RESOLUTION WHICH THEY NOW REFUSE TO DO. THEREFORE I AM OPENING ANOTHER COMPLAINT AS NOTHING THAT WAS STATED TO ME HAS COME TRUE AND CHRYSLER DENIES EVERYTHING ON YOUR SITE AND REFUSES TO FIX MY CAR WHICH IS CLEARLY A 2006 300C 5.7. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHEN FILLING THE GAS RANK (NO TOPPING OFF) THE MOTOR WOULD STALL OUT, HAD CAR TOWED TO SERVICE GARAGE ONLY TO FIND THE CAR WOULD START. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES, AFTER THAT IT WOULD OCCUR AT EVERY FILL, IT HAS NOW GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE THE CAR STALLS OUT BETWEEN 2 AND 10 TIMES, WE DON'T DARE GO ON THE HIGHWAY FOR AT LEAST 1/2 HOUR FOR FEAR OF STALLING IN TRAFFIC! WEB SEARCH INDICATES THIS IS A VERY COMMON DEFECT WITH THIS MODEL, WAS TOLD REPAIR WOULD REQUIRE REPLACING THE GAS TANK AND FUEL CANISTER BECAUSE FILL PIPE IS TOO HIGH ON FACTORY ORIGINAL TANK? SOUNDS LIKE A DEFECTIVE FACTORY PART THAT NEEDS DEALING WITH FOR SAFETY CONCERNS, THANK YOU MUCH FOR YOUR ATTENTION! [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AFTER FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GAS, THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE IDLING. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE CAR JERKS SEVERELY AND THEN TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THERE WAS AN INVESTIGATION THAT WAS CLOSED ON FEBRUARY 10, 2014, AND CHRYSLER IS SUPPOSE TO BE OFFERING LIFETIME EXTENDED WARRANTY RELATED TO THIS ISSUES. HOWEVER, I HAVE NOT BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN HAVING CHRYSLER ASSIST ME IN MAKING SURE MY VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE STALLING OCCURRED TWICE WHILE DRIVING UNTIL I STARTED TO RESEARCH IT. *TR

AFTER REFUELING (NOT OVER-FILLING) THE VEHICLE STALLS, BUCKS WHILE IN MOTION, DEALERSHIPS COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE REASON. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED TO THE POINT THE GAS PUMP KICKS OFF. THE DEALER SUGGESTS THE SOLUTION IS TO NOT FILL THE TANK, WHICH IS A TACTIC THAT DOES WORK IF YOU CAN PREDICT HOW FUEL YOU CAN PUMP BEFORE THE SHUT-OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE STALLING IS NOT IMMEDIATE AND WILL OFTEN OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING ONCE YOU HAVE ENTERED MOVING TRAFFIC. ON LINE FORUMS SHOW THIS TO BE A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM WITH 300C OWNERS. APPARENTLY, MANY DEALERS ARE NOW SUGGESTING THE FUEL TANK BE REPLACED AS A SOLUTION. IT IS UNKNOWN IF THIS ACTUALLY SOLVES THE PROBLEM. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE THIS OCCURRED I HAVE NARROWLY AVOIDED BEING REAR ENDED BY FOLLOWING TRAFFIC. I CANNOT IMAGINE THAT NO ACCIDENTS HAVE NOT BEEN CAUSED BY THIS PROBLEM.. *TR

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
