I HAD BOUGHT THE CAR IN JANUARY 2015 AND HAD THE CAR SERVICED AT DODGE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE CAR (2006 DODGE MAGNUM SXT) DID NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES UPON A 23 POINT INSPECTION ON 2/7/2015. THE CAR BEGAN TO LEAK FLUID, I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER ON 2/14/2015 AND THE LEAK COULD NOT BE IDENTIFIED AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT NO LEAKS WERE PRESENT. ON THE DATE IN QUESTION, I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN SPEEDS OF 30 AND 45 AS THE CAR WAS SHAKING TOWARDS THE BACK WHEELS. AFTER COMING TO A STOP AT A LIGHT AND COMMENCING TO DRIVE AGAIN, THE DRIVE SHAFT OF THE CAR BROKE OFF AND I STOPPED THE CAR IMMEDIATELY. UPON REPORTING THIS TO THE DEALER I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN WITH THE DODGE MAGNUM AND THIS IS AN ODD OCCURRENCE. THE CAR WAS MISDIAGNOSED TWICE BUT MORE THAN THAT I WOULD LIKE TO SAVE SOMEONE FROM GETTING HURT AS THIS COULD A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION HAD THE CAR BEEN OPERATING AT HIGHER SPEEDS AS THE DRIVE TRAIN SEPARATED FROM THE DIFFERENTIAL WITH GREAT FORCE. *TR

AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK CAR HAS BEEN STALLING, SHUTTING OFF ON ME. BEEN READING ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND SEEMS TO BE THE FUEL TANK CALLED THE DEALER THAT WASN'T MUCH HELP. JUST BOUGHT THE CAR ABOUT A MONTH AGO HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP. *TR

WHEN WANTING TO INDICATE A RIGHT TURN, THE SIGNAL INDICATED LEFT AND VICE-VERSA. THIS IS INTERMITTENT, BUT DANGEROUS. IT DID NOT HAPPEN OFTEN, LEADING ME TO THINK IT STOPPED, BUT IS GETTING MORE FREQUENT. ALSO, KEY WILL NOT TURN OVER ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY. *TR

MY CAR FALLS UNDER THE GAS TANK REPLACEMENT PROGRAM BUT THE DEALERS KEEP PUTTING OFF THE REPLACEMENT STATING NO PARTS AVAILABILITY. I WAS RECENTLY NEARLY HIT WHILE MAKING A LEGAL U TURN WHEN THE CAR STALLED TWICE LEAVING ME SIDEWAYS ACROSS 2 LANES OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I DO NOT WANT TO SELL MY CAR BUT THE SITUATION IS SCARY ENOUGH FOR ME TO PARK THE CAR. BUT WAITING A YEAR FOR THE PART IS RIDICULOUS. *TR

2 ISSUES: 1) THE CAR STALLS (ENGINE CUTS OFF) SPORADICALLY. IT RESTARTS WITHOUT HESITATION BUT THE STALLS ARE DURING TRANSIT WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS IN TRAFFIC. I SEE A LOT OF INSTANCES WHERE THIS COMPLAINT HAS BEEN REPORTED BUT I DON'T SEE ANY RECALLS ON THIS ISSUE. 2) WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH THE SEAT BELT BUCKLED, THE SEATBELT WARNING LIGHT AND CHIMING CONTINUOUSLY BLINK AND SOUNDS. ALSO, ALL THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD BLINKS SIMULTANEOUSLY PERIODICALLY. NOT SURE IF THAT IS RELATED BUT I DON'T SEE ANY RECALLS CONCERNING THIS. I WILL BE REPORTING THESE TO THE MEDIA FOR ASSISTANCE IN GETTING THESE ISSUES ADDRESSED WITH MY VEHICLE. *TR

HAD FILLED UP GAS TANK, UPON PULLING OUT EXPERIENCED ENGINE HESITATION AND LACK OF POWER. A FEW MINUTES LATER WHILE PASSING THOUGH A MAJOR INTERSECTION WITH 3 CHILDREN IN CAR, VEHICLE STALLED, CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND OF COURSE ANY MEANS OF PROPULSION. THE VEHICLE STARTED AGAIN BUT STALLED THREE MORE TIMES BEFORE RETURNING HOME. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH CAN ENDANGER LIVES IN A HIGH SPEED AND HIGH TRAFFIC SITUATION. *TR

CAR STALLS AFTER FUELING RENDERING ALL POWER ASSISTED FEATURES USELESS..IE: POWER STEERING & POWER BRAKES. WIFE AND KIDS ALMOST REAR ENDED IN NORMAL TRAFFIC AND T-BONED WHEN TURNING LEFT IN INTERSECTION!!!!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!! *TR

AFTER REFUELING MY 2006 DODGE MAGNUM STALLED REPEATEDLY. RESTARTING THE CAR WAS VERY DIFFICULT. MOST OF THE STALLING EPISODES OCCURRED WHEN THE CAR WAS AT A STANDSTILL OR MOVING AT 5 MPH OR LESS. IT ALSO STUMBLED BADLY WHEN DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH. ONE OF HE STALLING EPISODES LEFT ME STRANDED FOR A SHORT WHILE IN A BUSY INTERSECTION CAUSING A TRAFFIC JAM AND CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

AFTER FUELING CAR TO NEAR THE FULL MARK I WAS ATTEMPTING TO ENTER THE TRAFFIC FLOW ON INTERSTATE 75 AT OCALA. THE CAR LOST POWER AND THE ENGINE DIED ( NO POWER BRAKES OR STEERING) ATTEMPTED TO RESTART CAR IN NEUTRAL WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF CAR. TRAFFIC WAS RUNNING 70MPH AND I WAS MERGING INTO THE TRAFFIC FLOW. THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART ACTING AS IF FLOODED. LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING AND NOT MY WIFE WHO HAS MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY AS SHE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. MY RESEARCH INDICATES THE PROBLEM IS KNOWN BY DODGE AND IS RELATED TO A PURGE VENT VALVE IN THE FUEL TANK. IT SEEMS THE VELVET STICKS OPEN AND ALLOWS GAS , NOT JUST THE FUMES TO BE RECIRCULATED TO THE THROTTLE BODY (INTAKE) AND FLOODS THE ENGINE. DODGE STATES THIS PROBLEM CAN AFFECT ALL DODGE CHARGER, MAGNUM AND 300 MODEL CARS. IT REQUIRES A FUEL TANK REPLACEMENT AS THE PURGE VALVE IS INCORPORATED INTO THE TANK ITSELF. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE MAGNUM. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V354000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALER DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DELAY. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

SECOND INCIDENT: NOVEMBER 27, 2014 DRIVING TO VAN NUYS, CA FROM SIMI VALLEY, CA AT APPROX. 5:30 PM, FILLED UP GAS TANK AND PROCEEDED DOWN STREET TOWARDS FREEWAY ONRAMP, CAR STALLED 3 TIMES BEFORE GETTING ON FREEWAY. THIS IS THE SECOND INCIDENT (HAPPENED TWO WEEKS PRIOR, ALSO FOLLOWING FUEL FILL-UP). FIRST INCIDENT (TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO SECOND INCIDENT): FILLED UP TANK IN PORTER RANCH, CA, HEADED TO VAN NUYS, CA... DROVE ON FREEWAY OK, EXITED FREEWAY AT ROSCOE BLVD AND TURNED LEFT. CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF LEFT HAND TURN. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING IF CAR STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF A LEFT HAND TURN AS ONCOMING TRAFFIC APPROACHES. *TR

(TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE TIPM) ONE MORNING I TRIED TO START MY CAR. THE CAR ACTED IF THE BATTERY WAS DEAD, SO I JUMPED THE CAR. AFTER I JUMPED THE CAR I NOTICED THAT MY ESP/BAS LIGHT WAS ON. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO GET TO WORK. AS I LEFT MY HOUSE I TRIED TO USE MY TURN SIGNALS. THEY DID NOT TURN ON. I TRIED TO USE MY WIND SHIELD WIPERS AND THEY DID NOT WORK EITHER. THIS IS ALARMING BECAUSE THESE ARE A COUPLE OF SAME ATTRIBUTES THAT MAKE A CAR SAFE. AFTER MORE INVESTIGATION THE FOLLOWING THINGS STOPPED WORKING AS WELL. HORN CRUISE CONTROL FRONT WINDOWS TURN SIGNALS SO ALL OF MY MAJOR COMPONENTS THAT ALLOW ME TO COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER DRIVERS STOPPED WORKING ALL AT ONCE. I WENT TO THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE WRITER TOLD ME THAT THIS IS NOT A UNCOMMON PROBLEM AND THAT THE COST TO FIX THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE AROUND $1200-$1000. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH, THE SERVICE WRITER WAS NOT FAR OFF WHEN HE SAID THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. AFTER READING PAGE, AFTER PAGE, AFTER PAGE OF FORUMS OF "CHRYSLER " OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. FURTHER MORE THERE IS A LAWSUIT AGAINST CHRYSLER FOR PUTTING FAULTY PARTS ON THEIR VEHICLES WITHOUT ANY SORT OF RECALL. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD CONSIDERING, IF THIS COMMON FAULTY PART GOES OUT, SO DOES MOST OF YOUR VISUAL AND AUDIO COMMUNICATION INDICATORS ON YOUR VEHICLE. *TR

AFTER GAS FILL UP, ENGINE WILL DIE WHEN STOPPING, AND DIE IN MOTION BUT RESTART ITSELF, FOR 5 OR 10 MILES. THIS CONDITION IS ONGOING SINCE MARCH 2014. CONDITION HAS ALSO HAPPENED RANDOMLY ON ONE OCCASION. *TR

HI, I HAVE A 2006 DODGE MAGNUM SRT8. DURING THE FIRST INCIDENT IN APRIL 2014, MY CAR STALLED AT LIGHTS AND ENGINE WOULD NOT RESTART. I GOT GASOLINE AFTER THE FIRST STALL AND IT CONTINUED AFTER I FILLED MY TANK WITH GAS. THE SECOND INCIDENT JUST OCCURRED LAST NIGHT 11/4/14 AND I WENT TO THE GAS STATION TO FILL THE TANK. I NOTICED A SOUND LIKE AIR PRESSURE WAS BEING RELEASED FROM MY GAS TANK (NORMAL FROM FILLING UP) AND THEN THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART VERY EASILY AND STALLED. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR STARTED BUT IT STALLED AT EVERY IDLE AT STOP LIGHTS. I JUST NOTICED THAT THOUGH A GOOGLE SEARCH THAT THE FED IS PROBING ENGINE STALLS ON APPROX 192K CHRYSLER/DODGE MODELS WITH THE SAME ISSUE.

SEVERAL TIMES WHEN DRIVING OR PARKED ALL GAUGES ON DASHBOARD DROP TO ZERO AND IDIOT LIGHTS COME ON - SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS ONLY ONCE AND SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE RETURNING BACK TO NORMAL. HAVE HAD IT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES - EVEN HAD TO PAY THEM $269 TO DISCONNECT MY AFTER MARKET REMOTE START FOR THEM "PROVE TO THEMSELVES" THAT IT WASN'T THE CAUSE. THIS ISSUE HAPPENED A FEW TIMES BEFORE THE REMOTE START WAS EVER INSTALLED, BUT THEY WOULDN'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. ALSO PROVIDED THE DEALER WITH MULTIPLE INTERNET PRINTOUTS OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE ACROSS MULTIPLE MAKES (ONE SAID THAT THEIRS WAS DUE TO A LOOSE CONNECTION UNDER THE BATTERY HOUSING), BUT THEY "HAD NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM" AND "COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM" EVEN AFTER DRIVING THE CAR SEVERAL MILES ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. FUNNY HOW IT HAPPENS TO ME ON MOST RIDES! *TR

I STOPPED TO GET FUEL AND STARTED OFF ON MY TRIP I WENT TO GET ON THE FREEWAY AND THE CAR STALLED WHEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC. HAD TO DODGE A FEW CARS AND COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR A FEW TIMES AND IT FINALLY RESTARTED. I CONTINUED ON MY TRIP WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS UNTIL I STOPPED AND FILLED THE GAS TANK BACK UP. THIS TIME I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND HAD NO PLACE TO GO, PISSED OFF A FEW PEOPLE FOR BLOCKING TRAFFIC BUT FINALLY GOT THE CAR RESTARTED. *TR

FOR THE LAST 60 TO 90 DAYS , MY CAR HAS BEING TURNING OFF SEVERAL TIMES . I TOOK IT FOR MAINTENANCE AND EVERYTHING WAS UPDATED, BRAKES , OIL CHANGE . I WAS ADVISED IT WAS MY FUEL TANK . THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED ASAP , I DRIVE MY CHILDREN WITH ME ALL THE TIME . *TR

AT 66,000 MILES THIS CAR STARTED TO STALL DURING LOW SPEED OPERATION, AROUND 30-40 MPH. THIS CONTINUED ON WITH MULTIPLE ATTEMPTED, EXPENSIVE TRIES BY THE DEALER TO FIX IT, INCLUDING THE UNNECESSARY REMOVAL OF A REMOTE START SYSTEM. PART OF THE FIX ATTEMPTS INCLUDED INSTALLING A DOORBELL LIKE BUTTON THAT I PUSHED WHENEVER THE EVENT HAPPENED IN AN ATTEMPT FOR THEM TO FAULT ISOLATE. THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH BECAUSE IT APPEARED TO THEM THAT THE SYSTEM HAD BEEN SHUT OFF. AFTER THAT IT WAS PROBABLY THE CONTROL COMPUTER BUT NO GUARANTEE ON THAT. COMPUTER HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED. JUNE 2014 THIS CAR HAD THE GAS TANK REPLACED AT A PART OF THE NON-RECALL 'EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE GAS TANK' FUEL TANK REPLACEMENT. THE CAR RESPONDED WITH A INCREASE IN HORSEPOWER/PERFORMANCE BUT NOT BETTER STALL PERFORMANCE. AFTER A WEEK OR TWO THE STALL CONDITIONS RETURNED AND ARE MORE DANGEROUS THAN EVER. THE CAR WILL STALL PULLING INTO TRAFFIC, IT WILL STALL DURING OPEN ROAD RUNNING (NOW AT VIRTUALLY ANY SPEED), OR SITTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. WHEN IT STALLS, IF THE CAR HAS ENOUGH MOMENTUM IT WILL RESTART AND OCCASIONALLY BOLT FORWARD DUE TO THE COMPUTER SENSING THE STALL, ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS IN PARKING LOTS. A FURTHER FEATURE IS THAT IF THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT WAS ON PRIOR TO THE STALL, IT WILL BE EXTINGUISHED AND NO CODES REMAIN IN THE COMPUTER.. *TR

AFTER FILLING UP THE CAR WITH FUEL IT WOULD STALL WHEN DRIVING IT. ON 11/23/12 I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL DEALER,SANTA MARIA CHRYSLER-JEEP-DODGE. THEY INFORMED ME THE FUEL TANK WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE VENT VALVE ON FUEL TANK WAS FAULTY. I PAID FOR THE REPAIRS AT COST OF $1607.25 ON 11/28/12. I RECENTLY BECAME AWARE OF A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY SAY MY VIN# DOES NOT QUALIFY. THE PROBLEM WAS A SCARY SITUATION. I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT IF THE CAR STALLED IN TRAFFIC. APPARENTLY I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE CAR WILL STALL AND ONLY GIVE ABOUT 5PERCENT POWER. IT CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. DEALER HAD VEHICLE FOR A MONTH AND CANNOT DETERMINE THE ISSUES. I WAS ALMOST HIT BY MOVING VEHICLES MULTIPLE TIMES. *TR

FILLED TANK WITH FUEL CAR STALLED AFTER STATING AND SITTING AT LIGHT . THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED THE LAST THREE TIMES I HAVE FILLED UP. *TR

THE CAR STALLS AT STOP LIGHTS MOSTLY BUT HAS RECENTLY STARTED STALLING ON THE FREEWAY. *TR

MY 2006 DODGE MAGNUM HAS BEEN A GREAT CAR. UNTIL YESTERDAY. I HAD DRIVEN THE VEHICLE EARLIER IN THE DAY WITHOUT PROBLEMS. WENT OUT TO MY CAR AFTER WORK, STARTED RIGHT UP AS USUAL - BUT WOULD NOT GO OUT OF PARK. AFTER GOOGLING THE PROBLEM, I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A RECURRENT PROBLEM ON BOTH DODGE AND CHRYSLER VEHICLES. THERE IS A WORK AROUND, BUT AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS ITEM IS NOT FOUND ON ANY RECALL LISTS. WHILE THIS IS NOT TECHNICALLY A "SAFETY" ISSUE, IT IS A VERY FRUSTRATING PROBLEM. BASED ON THE SHEER NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO SEEM TO HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM - A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED!!!! *TR

I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN MAY 2014. AT TIME OF PURCHASE ALL 4 WHEELS WERE SHOWING OBVIOUS SIGNS OF SIGNIFICANT CORROSION AROUND THE CENTER CAP, LUG NUT AREA AND ALONG THE BEAD OF THE RIM. ALL TIRES MAINTAIN PROPER INFLATION. I JUST RECENTLY ATTENDED AN ALL CHRYSLER CAR SHOW AND WHILE ADMIRING OTHER MAGNUMS ON DISPLAY I NOTICED SEVERAL OF THEM HAD THE SAME CORROSION IN THE SAME LOCATIONS AS MINE. I AM NOT A METALLURGIST AND DO NOT KNOW IF THIS CONDITION WILL, OR HAS, AFFECTED THE INTEGRITY OF THE ALLOY MATERIAL USED IN THE MANUFACTURING OF THESE RIMS BUT IT SEEMS TO ME, IF THIS PROBLEM IS LEFT UNADDRESSED IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CREATE A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING MAJOR ISSUE WITH MY MAGNUM STALLING. IT STALLS AFTER I FILL UP ON GAS, IF I DRIVE ALOT DURING THE DAY IT STALLS ALOT AT NIGHT,AND IT HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS. I HAVE BEEN STUCK AT MAJOR INTERSECTIONS FREEWAYS, FREEWAY ENTRANCES AND EXITS. ITS NOT A GREAT FEELING FEARING EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE ESPECIALLY THE WAY PEOPLE DRIVE IN LOS ANGELES. THIS IS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL AND I HAVE NO OPTION BUT TO DRIVE IT. I AM AFRAID OF GETTING IN A DEADLY ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE PLEASE HELP. *TR

HELLO JUST THE OTHER DAY I NOTICED THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON.THE ONE ON THE CLUSTER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE.I TRIED RESETTING IT WORKS FOR A MINUTE AND IT POPS BACK ON.DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE WEB AND IT STATED THAT I WAS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 05 MAGNUM. IF THAT'S THE REASON HOW COME THEY DIDN'T RECALL THE VEHICLES.BIG MISTAKE IF THE LIGHTS ON GUESS WHAT GET IN A CRASH AIRBAG WON'T WORK.THAT CAN BE REAL BAD LIKE A LIFE BEING LOST AND WE DON'T NEED THAT AT ALL. *TR

THE ENGINE STALLS RANDOMLY AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT. THIS WILL OFTEN OCCUR SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW. AFTER RESTARTING THE CAR IT WILL NOT GO INTO GEAR AND BE STUCK IN NEUTRAL. THE PROBLEM WILL ALSO OCCUR AT SPEED, DYING CAUSING A SMALL DECELERATION AND THEN STARTING AGAIN ON ITS OWN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE DRIVER BEHIND YOU HAS NO INDICATION THAT YOU ARE STALLED AND STOPPING UNEXPECTEDLY. *TR

AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS, UPON DRIVING THE CAR WILL DIE. AT APPROXIMATELY 5MPH THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY DIE AND WILL NOT RESPOND. CAR WILL NOT START UNTIL AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF SITTING. NO CEL LIGHTS OR CODES THROWN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, WITHOUT WARNING THE FOLLOWING WILL HAPPEN SIMULTANEOUSLY: DASHBOARD GAUGES DROP TO ZERO (MPH,GAS LEVEL,TEMP,RPM), THE IDIOT LIGHTS ALL COME ON AND IF THE HEAT (BLOWER) IS ON IT WILL STOP OPERATING AND HEATED SEATS TURN OFF. THIS LASTS FOR 2 SECONDS AND THEN EVERYTHING RESETS EXCEPT THE HEATED SEATS WHICH YOU HAVE TO TURN ON AGAIN. THIS CAN HAPPEN ONCE OR SEVERAL TIMES IN RAPID SUCCESSION. I HAVE HAD THIS OCCUR WINTER, SPRING SUMMER AND FALL. I THINK IT'S A COMPUTER PROBLEM AS SOMETHING CONTROLS ALL THESE FUNCTIONS. *TR

AFTER FILING THE FUEL TANK, THE ENGINE WILL SPUTTER AND STALL. WHEN IT FIRST BEGAN TO HAPPEN TO ME, IT SEEMED LIKE I WAS GETTING BAD GAS. NOW I KNOW THAT THIS OCCURS PRIMARILY AFTER I MAKE A LEFT TURN AND IS DUE TO A PART THAT IS INSIDE THE FUEL TANK. THE PART FAILS AND THE RESULT IS THIS PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE STALLING. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH OLDER MAGNUMS, CHARGERS, AND CHRYSLER 300'S. IT IS DANGEROUS!! THIS HAS HAPPENED TO BE ON INTERSTATE 95 AND JUST WHEN I GOT INTO THE TRAVEL LANE THE ENGINE DIED. I THINK THE LEFT TURN I MADE WAS A FEW MILE BEFORE I GOT TO THE ENTRANCE RAMP AND IT CAUGHT ME OFF-GUARD. I WAS LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO PULL OVER AND GET ONTO THE SHOULDER. THIS IS A DESIGN FAILURE AND IS NOT NORMAL WEAR & TEAR. ALL OF THE OLDER CARS MENTIONED HERE CAN BE AFFECTED. I ASSUME YOU HAVE RECEIVED PRIOR COMPLAINS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. DODGE IS NO HELP, BUT SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THANKS. *JS

CAR DIES AFTER FILL UP ALWAYS. *TR

THE VEHICLE BEGIN TO STALL OR SHUT-OFF AFTER FILLING TANK UP, IF IT DID NOT SHUT-OFF THE CAR, IT (CAR) WOULD SHUTTER FOR A COUPLE OF MILES BEFORE CAR RAN NORMAL. *TR

AT LOW SPEEDS AND STOPS MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF AT RANDOM TIMES. SOMETIMES 3-5 TIMES IN AS SHORT OF A DRIVE AS 10 MILES, MAINLY AT INTERSECTIONS. WORST INCIDENT WAS PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP SIGN MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN WITH A CAR COMING THE DIRECTION I WAS TURNING, I LOST ENGINE POWER AS WELL AS POWER-STEERING. IN ALL INSTANCES I SHUT CAR OFF AND RESTARTED AND WAS ABLE TO PULL AWAY, ALTHOUGH IN SOME CASES IT WOULD NOT INITIALLY ENGAGE INTO DRIVE. I FIRST EXPERIENCED AFTER PUTTING A FULL TANK OF GAS IN ALTHOUGH NOW IT DOES NOT MATTER THE FUEL LEVEL. IT HAS BEEN PROGRESSIVELY GETTING MORE FREQUENT. *TR

2ND SUBMISSION - I DID NOT GET A CONFIRMATION OF MY FIRST ONE AND I HAVE MORE INFORMATION. MY 2006 DODGE MAGNUM WITH THE 5.7L HEMI HAS HAD AND CONTINUES TO HAVE THE ISSUES OUTLINED IN NHTSA INVESTIGATION PE 13016. IT STALLS OUT AFTER FUELING. IT HAS NOW STARTING DOING IT WHEN THE WEATHER GETS MUCH WARMER DURING THE DAY. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER VIA E-MAIL AND WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED BY THE EXTENSION OF THE WARRANTY ON THE GAS TANK AND ASSOCIATED PARTS. I HAVE CONTACTED BILLION HERE IN SIOUX FALLS AND ALSO PAPIK IN LUVERNE MN AND NEITHER SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS HEARD OF THIS ISSUE, THE INVESTIGATION, OR THE FIX. AT THING POINT I MAY JUST HAVE MY LOCAL SHOP THAT I USE FIX IT AS IT HAS BECOME VERY NERVE RACKING TO DRIVE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR SOMETHING THE COMPANY HAS COMMITTED TO FIX. I DID DOWNLOAD A COPY OF THE LETTER FROM THE NHTSA WEBSITE THAT WAS LINKED TO THE INVESTIGATION PAGE. I NEVER RECEIVED A COPY OF THIS LETTER FROM CHRYSLER WHICH IS PROBABLY BECAUSE I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS CAR. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE MAGNUM. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED WHICH WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE CODE HOWEVER, THE DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO STALL WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED. THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 118,000.
