Vehicle dies while driving and wile coming to a stop in town. No check engine light. No codes - took it in to the chrysler dealership and they diagnosed a bad fuel tank. The inlet flapper on the fuel tank is defective allowing fuel to overflow the charcoal canister. This is the same problem as the 2005-2006 models that now come with a lifetime warranty on fuel tanks. I called chrysler and they are not willing to work with me to replace it or consume some of the costs, and it is a safety issue. It has dies out in the middle of an intersection over 10 times and wont always re-start. Sometimes it takes 5-10 minutes, and other times it starts right back up. I was in the middle of a turn and the car stalled out and I almost hit the vehicle to the right of me. It is very dangerous and needs to be included in the lifetime warranty issued to 2005/2006 models.

At various times since I bought this car new, this vehicle stalled and/or violently shook while at stop light thinking someone must have hit me. When filling up with premium gas, the pump will trip and stop putting gas. I have to hold the pump slightly higher so that it will not trip. I could never use the pump rest for this car so that I don't have to hold the pump the entire time. We even choose gas stations that do not have ethanol mix. On tuesday, 2/7/17, it shook and stalled at different times during the day while at stop light. On the same day, while in motion and making a curve on a narrow 2-way street, I suddenly could not steer the car. I stopped with my emergency flashers, turned off everything, and had to restart the car. We took it for service for same reasons and the dealer could not find any issues.
