Filed Dec 5, 2017 · Fuel system · 160,000 miles · MD

I am experiencing stall outs after fueling my car up.I entered the highway and the car stalled out while traffic is burling on top of me and I immediately put the vehicle in neutral and restarted the vehicle which didn't start right away and nearly created an rear end collision of my vehicle.after it started the car stalled again and started jerking before it stalled again..this is definitely a heart stopping experience and I am unaware if chrysler has a recall about this terrifying situation..I've purchased this vehicle new 10/2004 and never experienced this problem until the spring of 2017 ..my vehicle now has 167,000 plus miles and I'm very concerned about this existing fuel problem which can cause a major accident which I have almost became a victim..

We were on a cross-country trip and one night we had just filled up and went across the parking lot to a fast food window and while getting our food the car starting jerking and died. It was hard to start but finally we were able to go a little further and it died at our hotel. The rest of the way home whenever we filled up the car would stall several times. It stopped for awhile but recently has started dying again when I fill up. Last night I filled up and the car died several times in traffic. We do not overfill and tighten the gas cap tightly.

I have a hemi engine. Within the last year it started stalling on me when my gas tank was on empty and I filed it up. On the freeway a few times and it stalls!! I took to different shops and they could not figure out. Now my problem is getting worse. It stalls on me multiple times after gas. It spit and jerks. Completely dangerous. I am a accident injury adjuster that does claims everyday all day, and if I get into an accident because of this , I will sue both chrysler and the federal safety agency. Someone please respond as I am getting very frustrated and want this covered under warranty.

I purchased my chrysler 300c on 1/8/2014. I left the dealership with an almost full tank of gas and experienced no problems until the next fill up. Right after filling up my gas tank, and making sure not to top it off as the manual suggests, I suddenly experienced the car jerking, almost like a down shift feeling, and then it stalled. I was just leaving the gas station. I drove another mile and then made a turn into my subdivision and it did it again. I immediately called the dealership and took it in to have them check it out. They supposedly hooked it up to the computer and said that nothing was detected. They asked if any lights came on and I told them only the oil light. They test drove it and said there was nothing wrong. The next couple of times I filled up I used a prepaid gas card which didn't totally fill up my tank so I didn't experience any problems. Today I filled my tank, this time my husband was in the car and as soon as we left the gas station the car started jerking, like a sudden downshift....finally, I had a witness! We drove about 5 miles to a car wash, and upon approaching the entrance it stalled again! I started the car again to enter the wash and once it was in neutral it stalled again. I am very nervous and scared to drive my car!!! Why isn't there a recall to fix this problem?

Vehicle stalls one or more times after refueling, particularly while decelerating. Vehicle may then lurch several times before resuming normal operation, which usually occurs after 5-10 minutes of driving. Problem is intermittent but ongoing. Mechanic has not been able to resolve problem.
