“ENGINE STALLS MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER REFUELING WHILE DRIVING, USUALLY WHEN SLOWING TO TURN OR SLOWING TO COME TO A STOP. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET TO A DEALER TO HAVE THE PROBLEM CHECKED, BUT I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS ENGINE AND THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL TO CORRECT. *TR”

“HELLO, I NEED YOUR HELP AND I CANNOT GET ANY HELP FROM DODGE. MY VEHICLE HAS EXPERIENCED AN ISSUE WHERE THE CAR WILL STALL AFTER THE FUEL TANK IS FULL. I HEARD THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE BUT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE LIST BUT HOWEVER HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. ALL I WANT TO DO IS HAVE FAIRNESS FROM AN ISSUE THAT I DID NOT MAKE HAPPEN. I HAVE CONTACTED DODGE AND THEY TURNED ME AWAY. ALONG WITH THE STALL ENGINE IT ALMOST APPEAR AS IF IT MIGHT CAUSE A LEAK. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP. I WILL CONTINUE TO SEND EMAILS AND POSSIBLE CONTACT CORPORATE OFFICE OR THE MAYOR. THANK YOU *TR”

“FROM APPROXIMATELY AUGUST 2008 THROUGH AUGUST 2013, VEHICLE WOULD STALL AT LOW SPEEDS AFTER FILLING FUEL TANK. REPLACED FUEL TANK IN AUGUST 2013, WHICH CORRECTED THE ISSUE. IN RESPONSE TO NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE13016, CHRYSLER EXTENDED THE FUEL TANK WARRANTY ON SOME 2005 AND 2006 DODGE MAGNUM VEHICLES. MY VEHICLE, WHICH WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THIS TIME PERIOD AND SEEMINGLY HAD THE SAME ISSUE AS THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, IS NOT COVERED UNDER CHRYSLER'S WARRANTY EXTENSION. CHRYSLER SEEMS TO HAVE MADE A DECISION THAT WILL ALLOW UNSAFE VEHICLES NOT COVERED UNDER THEIR WARRANTY TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE ON THE ROAD. *TR”

“IMMEDIATELY AFTER REFUELING TO A FULL TANK ENGINE STALLED AND ALMOST STOPPED WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT ONLY ABOUT 100 FEET FROM GAS STATION. WHILE STOPPED STUMBLE OCCURRED TWO TIMES, BUT NEVER STOPPED COMPLETELY. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE A STALL COULD CAUSE TRAFFIC PROBLEMS, BRAKE BOOSTER DEGRADATION AND DRIVER INSECURITY. THIS SECOND OCCURRENCE IN A MONTH. *TR”
