My car stalled on a stop light twice last november 2014 and january 25, 2015 after I fill up my car. I turned off the car and then turned on the car again and it drove. For now it is working but I'm afraid it will stalled again while on the road.

When I come to a fulll stop , car will die. Always starts up again tho. It is scary. Happens at least once a week.
After fueling my car, I have problems with my car stalling until I run some fuel out of my car. Now after I still have more then 3/4 tank of gas, my car will act fuel starved going down the freeway to an almost stall then come back on by itself. I am the original owner of this car and never heard from the dealer of a gas tank, charcoal filter recall and now it is canceled???
This is not a complaint, but info for other chrysler owners with the fuel fill/stalling problem. We just received a letter from chrysler, telling us they have issued a lifetime warranty on the components causing this problem. We made an appointment and had our 2006 300 fixed in 2 days! The fuel tank and internal valves were replaced after removing the exhaust and driveline. The job took 5-6 hours and we were not charged a cent! The car is again running very well without stalling. Thank you, chrysler!
I am having issues with the car stalling out or bogging down shortly after refueling and many times happening within less than a mile of refueling. I have brought the car into the local dealership who can not replicate the problems (and am now being stuck paying a $95 diagnostic fee), and calling chrysler directly who is unwill to try to assist. If this is a know issue (the federal safety agency action number pe13016), I don't understand why this isn't being addressed and corrected immediately.
Car stalls right after a gas fill up.
Very shortly after refueling my car (probably driven less than 1000 feet) the car shuttered and stalled. It restarted immediately but then shut down again within the mile. Again, it started immediately and I had no more problems until the next time I filled the tank and it stalled again almost immediately upon exiting the gas station. Again, it restarted on the first try and I had no more problems for the rest of the trip or since. However, I have not refueled since; so don't know what will happen when I do. I have taken it to a dealer and it is deemed I need a new gas tank. Gas tanks should not wear out and our car is low mileage and in mint condition. This seems like a faulty design problem. It is clearly a safety issue with my car and I suspect with others who own the same model. (I did not "top off" the tank on either occasion.)
I already have filed a complaint about this matter. I found that chrysler has agreed to replace fuel tanks as a recall on his vehicle on feb.10,2014 , pe13016. Recall letters to be sent out starting jan. 2014. I have not received a letter. I called chrysler (1‑800‑247‑9753) they are not aware of this recall. I questioned this and the operator (employer #[xxx] had no answer. I have a case # with them #[xxx]. And although the federal safety agency thinks this is not a safety problem I beg to differ. This car has stalled after refueling at speeds up to 55 MPH or faster. This is a $1500 or more repair I was told & would like to have chrysler take care of this. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
For the 5th time in 12 months, my 2006 chrysler 300c stalled after filling up at a gas station, nearly causing an accident. I previously brought it to a mechanic who did a tune up, new spark plugs, and even replaced valve lifters to try to resolve this issue, to no avail. I finally did a google search and see that many other people have this problem. It is ridiculous to me that this has not been a recall, as it is very dangerous to stall when pulling out into traffic after filling up the tank with gas.
My vehicle stalled while traveling on highway after filling fuel tank. This problem has happened at least 3 times in the past and is very dangerous. Thank god it was a sunday afternoon and traffic was light. I have read on line this is a familiar issue. Why isn't anything being done about this???
After refilling the gas tank of my 2006 300c chrysler, it stumbles as though it is no longer getting enough fuel. There is a definite and serious loss of power, with concern for our safety as we exit the gas station and reenter traffic. There is a sense that the engine is struggling and would stall. The loss of power repeats several more times as we drive further from the gas station. This problem has presented itself almost every time we refuel and is cause for real concern for our safety. Based on advice from other 300c owners, we plan to no longer fill the tank, but stop at about the 3/4 mark. This does not seem to be a very effective solution to a genuine safety issue.
