2005 Dodge Magnum: loss of power steering

Filed Jan 9, 2022 · Engine, Fuel system · OK

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

After filling up the car with gas it stalls and you lose steering and brake control, very dangerous and my wife is now scared to drive the car. Stalling went away after an hour trying to get home. Next morning seemed to run fine. Next fill up did the same thing. This problem is going to cause deaths for sure if it has not already. Contacting the dealer asap to see if they have others with same issue.

I had a starter failure on my car, and was replacing starter myself, since I do most of my repairs, & to remove starter, the steering shaft has to removed for clearance. After taking the steering shaft from the steering box and examining it, I found rusted out section on the collapsing joint of the shaaft. It is completely rusted out half the diameter of the shaft. I went auto salvage yard & put another shaft on car. I live in pa, padot uses liquid deicing spray on highways & it has penetrated this part. If it had gone much longer, it would have broken completely off, with loss of steering and possibly crash. This only has 60,000+ miles. I didn't go to dealer for replacemet, but saved the defective part. I think there should be recall to check other vehicles for this before someone get in trouble.

1. After filling up gas tank, car stalls out coming to a stop or slowing down. 2. Engine stalls slowing down even while going around turns. Happens every time after fill up. Very dangerous, lost power steering while going around turn and almost hit a curve, car behind almost hit me. 3. Only known fix is to replace fuel tank because rollover valve is apart of the tank.

Our 2005 dodge magnum frequently stalls when moving at slow speeds. The first time it happened was over a year ago, after exiting the freeway, 10-15 minutes driving at around 60, proceeding aprox 2 miles to a stoplight which went from red to green, when trying to accelerate the car stalled. Since then stalls have happened after stopping at intersections, then pulling forward and making a turn only to discover that the car has stalled mid turn (very frequent) or even driving through the slow zone at the airport (5mph)...we are becoming so accustomed that we known to quickly put in into neutral and restart the car as it continues forward but loss of power steering and braking makes the experience more than a bit nerve racking.
