2005 Dodge Magnum fuel system problems

Filed Jul 8, 2024 · Fuel system · NV

I have an 05 Dodge Magnum RT 5.7L Hemi, that intermittently stalls after filling the gas tank, and continues to do this until gas goes down a little. After dealing with/living with this problem for a while, I finally took my car to a shop and told them what was happening. They told me I needed to replace the right fuel pump module, which I did. This was 02/19/2016, at a cost of $287.94. The car had78,728 miles on the vehicle at this time. This did not fix the problem. I told the shop this, and I was told they couldn't find any other problem. After which I learned to live with it by not filling the tank up all they way. Recently I was not paying close enough attention when putting gas in, because I was washing my windshield. The car filled up until the pump clicked off. Upon leaving the gas station in morning rush hour traffic, my car immediately stalled. I was nearly rear ended. it took about 10 to 15 seconds to restart it. I was able to make the next green light to merge onto freeway, so I didn't need to slow down. (I should mention that the stalls only occur at slow speeds and stops, after the car has been filled with gas.) I had to slow way down to merge, and my car again stalled. I finally go it to start again only to have this happen 6 more times in stop and go traffic in 1 mile! Even though I was able to get to the right shoulder of the freeway until I could turn off, I caused major traffic delays. After telling a a co-worker about this, he told me he has the exact same car, which had the exact same problem. He then informed me there was an lifetime warranty to fix this problem, and his was fixed under this warranty a couple of months ago. I have found information regarding this warranty on-line, but nothing comes up when I enter my vin, even though it is the exact same year, make, and model of all the other cars that were fixed. I keep my car in top shape. It has no other issues than this...and I have been dealing with it since 2015!

The malfunction to report is after fueling the vehicle will stall out. There is the sign of the fuel sending unit and fuel pump cycling after the ignition is turned on. This only occurs after topping off the fuel. The safety of operation is the stalling may occur while driving as well as at sitting still. When driving and the vehicles stalls causes the steering wheel to stiffen and the must come to a complete stop, placed in park, turn off the ignition and wait for the possible reset. The problem has not been reviewed on my particular vehicle but has been reported by other 2005 Magnum owners. No other manufacturing process has inspected my vehicle. And there are no warning lights that come to indicate there is a problem.

I am experiencing an engine stall after filling the fuel tank. I have stalled after just leaving the gas station on main roads and even the highway when traffic is at highway speeds of 65+. There have been no accidents to report to law enforcement so I dont have record of that. I called the local dealer before to ask about the recall but they only said it was not on the list and I did not receive a call back. I would like to take my vehicle in for inspection. The issue has been happening for at least a few years (I dont have an exact time frame) but only this last year did the engine light come on. I had the code checked while the light was on and it was not for the aforementioned issue, so I dont think my vehicle is registering the stalling.

The vehicle stalled during normal use traveling about 35 miles an hour right after an intersection. MY husband was able to safely make it off the road as we live in a small town he did this by feathering the accelerator pedal. He is a mechanic so he was able to get it home by lightly tapping the pedal. If he pressed the pedal too hard the car stalled without warning so he lightly tapped on it and made it 2 blocks to our home where it has set in the driveway ever since. We spent over $1000 replacing parts such as the throttle body and the fuel pump and sending unit, egr, pcv, crankshaft sensor, plugs,injectors, intake seals, air intake temperature sensor and throttle body which include the throttle position sensor. Before we went for the cam sensor I decided to look up the issue and found so many with the same problem as us. We are veterans on a semi fixed income with a 10 month old daughter and this is our only vehicle we live in a super hot place in northern Arizona and can not afford further repairs as every part seems to be quite expensive. I don't have the fear of it dying while transporting my daughter again as it won't even stay started since the first incident. Additionally there are no codes or dash indicator lights staying on. We will be contacting Dodge in Kingman Arizona today.

When vehicle has been filled up with gas it will intermittently die until it has around 50 miles on it. Usually sputters and dies without warning leaving you with no steering or brakes. Will restart but die until some fuel is ran out. I have scheduled to have the gas tank replaced but the fee is around $150

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge magnum. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact stated that the fuel tank needed to be full to prevent the vehicle from stalling. The contact noticed that the seal to the tank was leaking. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the control valve failed causing fuel to enter the purge line to leak and needed to be replaced. Hunter dodge chrysler jeep ram fiat (1130 auto mall dr, lancaster, ca 93534) was contacted however, informed the contact that the vehicle needed to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired.

In april 2013 I took my 05 magnum to sunset dodge in sarasota to find out why the car was stalling after filling the car with gas. After 5 months of going back to them and them not being able to find out what was wrong. I stopped filling the car up all the way and the problem stopped. This is what I need to do to keep the car running. The dealer said it is not our problem. I now find out it was a know issue and many people have the same issue. What can you do.
