Filled fuel tank up until the pump shut off. As I drove onto the road, the engine suddenly died causing me to run off the shoulder as the power steering went out as well. I eventually got it re-started, but it ran rough and stalled out several more times on my way home. After some online research, I determined that it was probably raw gas getting pulled down the EVAP tube. I avoid the problem now by not filling the tank up all the way, but do it once in a while accidently and the problem returns. Highly dangerous situation.

SERVICE BULLETIN # 14-002-14: Fuel tank "roll over" valve failed immediately after fill-up saturating the purge solenoid and dryer canister for the fuel vapor vent reburning system. This service bulletin described failure caused liquid fuel rather than vapor to be dumped into the intake manifold stalling the vehicle in traffic in unsafe conditions. The car was towed to Beamon Dodge at 1705 S. Church St., 37130 awaiting repair. Dodge customer service was contacted at 1‑800‑423‑6343 where they stated that this VIN was not covered by the service bulletin. Quoted repair for the manufacture defect is $4,680.48. Clearly the vehicles covered by this service bulletin are incomplete. Complaints of this failure can be found on the internet through 2014 when this service bulletin was issued on April 22, 2014. Clearly Dodge corrected nothing in their manufacturing and the federal safety agency is not protecting all consumers.

Our 2007 charger is having the same issues with overfill and stalling after the car is filled full with gas. Dodge recalled the 2005-2006 charger tanks, but our 2007 has the same issue.

My vehicle begins to stall out at low speeds or while idling. While slowing down for a light or just waiting for the traffic light to change. I brought the vehicle to the chrysler dealership at gwinnette chrysler stone mountain georgia and the problem was diagnosed to be the fuel tank needing replacement after paying 3000.00 dollars for repairs that did not resolve the issue. I was then given a final diagnosis that the fuel tank was the issue and it was going to cost 4500.00 to replace. Today is april 1 and I just picked up my vehicle after it was sitting in the dealership for almost 1 month and still the problem has not been resolved. Please help me. My vehicle is sitting in my driveway with a car cover because I am afraid to drive it in this condition. [xxx].

2007 dodge charger 5.7 170,000+ miles stalling immediately or shortly after fueling without warning while in drive. Identical to same issues in the 2006 models.

Car threw evap leak code. No leaks found. Fuel pump was checked and tank checked for over flow. No leaks. No gas smell. Fuel pump and evap system ruled out as cause. The issue seems to be with the tank itself.

My son was driving the car and was at the stop light. When the light turned green and he hit the gas to go the car stalled and it started smoking from under the trunk and within seconds was in flames. My son had to jump out the passenger side for safety reasons. The fire department went and turned the fire out. We have no idea why it went up in fire. We were driving it all morning and my son drives it to school with no issues.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge charger. The contact stated that the engine fan failed. While driving approximately 40 MPH, the engine emitted a loud noise and the vehicle abruptly stalled. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic (chick's auto repair, 540‑347‑3992, warrenton, va) who diagnosed that the engine fan failed, which caused the radiator to fail. The manufacturer advised the contact to tow the vehicle to have a diagnostic test performed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer (chrysler dodge jeep, 540‑905‑7223, warrenton, va) for a second diagnostic test, which confirmed that the engine fan blade fractured and caused the radiator to fail. The manufacturer informed the contact that the vehicle was not included in the engine blade replacement warranty. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 52,000.

As I'm driving down the freeway in the fast lane the vehicle stalls. I'm able to maneuver across all three lanes of traffic to get on the shoulder and call aaa roadside. When the tow truck gets to my location he puts 2 gallons of gas in my tank and the vehicle starts right up. Meanwhile the gas gauge is showing a quarter tank. After looking up if this has happened to anyone else I came across numerous online posts stating that the same thing has happened to them as well. This is a huge safety concern as it can result in a very bad accident from losing power steering and power brakes as a result of the engine stalling out from fuel starvation and the gas gauge showing a quarter tank.
