Engine stalls while driving by model year
What owners say
Whever I fill up the gas tank, the car starts to stall and jerks and stops all the way. It displays engine light and goes into cruise mode. I have to turn it off n back on and still jerks until the fuel is little empty. When I don't fill it full then it doesn't do this
After almost every fill up vehicle stalls when going down road. After researching the problem I found the vapor/liquid separator valve is defective. Evidently this is a common problem and a safety issue in my opinion. To be driving down the road and your vehicles shut down is dangerous. Why does the manufacturer not have a recall on this problem.
After filling the fuel tank the vehicle stalls, and sputters when pulling into traffic, and driving down the road for up to 1 minute
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge grand caravan. While driving 60 MPH, the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the fuse box located under the hood in the engine compartment became overheated. The fuses were extremely hot and smoking. The vehicle was towed back to the contact's residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 189,863.
Car stalls and sometimes dies after refueling. This always happens after pulling onto road into traffic. So far I have avoided being hit by another car! This has been happening for a long time. Dealer says replace fuel tank,poor design.
Within minutes of fueling, the engine will stall causing a loss of steering and brakes.

Stalling after refueling when I fill up my gas tank, almost immediately afterward pulling out of the gas station my van sputters, misses, hesitates, call it what you will. The past couple of times the engine has actually stalled as well.
Shortly after fueling van it stalls steering wheel locks up and I loose all power. This has happened a number of times including being on busy roadways, when I loose full control of my vehicle. Every incidence has also happened when I have had my three children in the van.I have researched and this is a very well known problem. Why has something not been done? Do my children and I have to be killed in an automobile accident.
After refueling the car will stall for short period. This is extremely dangerous as it may stall while pulling into he roadway. The federal safety agency worked with dodge on other models to extend the warranty to lifetime. My vehicle has the same issue and the repair is to replace the fuel tank at a cost in excess of $700. Dodge should have redesigned the fuel system to correct this issue as the same issue was lifetime warranties in prior year models.
