2006 Dodge Magnum engine problems

“vehicle engine codes were all corrected properly in hopes of fixing the stalling issues. the vehicle was seemingly better for a few days. upon driving the vehicle on the highway at normal highway speed, the vehicle suddenly began flickering and shutting off and on. the vehicle would shut off and on rapidly. each time the vehicle turned back on it would accelerate causing the vehicle to jolt forward and stop rapidly. the car would not allow me to brake safely. the vehicle behind was within inches of a collision but their quick response to slam on their brakes and swerved to the shoulder thankfully missed. this is not an isolated event. speaking to other hemi 5.7 vehicle owners this is a very common issue. I had a baby in a carseat in the backseat who was jolted around slamming the back of his head into his car seat. this is so dangerously unsafe. not dealership can find the problem even after replacing every part possible on these vehicles.”

“The engine in my 2006 dodge Magnum has begun stalling out after fueling precisely as described in NHTSA action number PE13016. The first time it happened I was in the middle of a U-turn at a busy intersection. The engine died and I lost power steering and power brakes. I was able to brute-force the steering wheel and narrowly avoided hopping the curb and hitting the light pole on the corner. This light pole might have just as easily been a pedestrian. I called my local Dodge dealer (Ontario Dodge, Ontario California) to explain the problem and arrange to bring the car in. I let them know that I was aware that this issue was addressed under NHTSA action number PE13016 and should be covered under the lifetime warranty extension. I was told by the service adviser that I am required to drop off my car and that it would be 7-10 days before they would look at it. I suggested that they put me on a list and I could bring my car in 7-10 days at a time when they were able to look at it. They were unwilling to do this. They're insisting that my car sit in their lot for 7-10 days before they will even look at it. This isn't a scheduling issue. I can go on their website…”

“I HAVE OWNED THIS 2006 DODGE MAGNUM SE V6 2.7L FROM NEW, BOUGHT IN APRIL 2006, THE PROBLEM I'M HAVING IS WITH THE CAR STALLING, WITHOUT ANY NOTICE, HAPPENING TODAY WHEN TURNING LEFT AT A STOP LIGHT AND STARTING UPHILL. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AFTER PULLING TO THE RIGHT WITHOUT POWER, COMING TO A STOP, PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, AND RESTARTING. I MADE IT BACK HOME, BUT THE CAR HAS BEEN CRANKING OVER AND NOT STARTING WHEN IN MY GARAGE, THIS AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS. I'VE HAD THIS ISSUE HAPPEN BEFORE FROM 2006 ONWARD TO TODAY, ONLY A FEW TIMES A YEAR, AND CHANGED OUT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY EACH TIME AND THOUGHT THAT WAS THE PROBLEM, BUT THE CAR HAS NEVER STALLED WHILE DRIVING BEFORE NOW, ONLY WHEN SITTING AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK. THE CAR ONLY HAS 73,000 MILES NOW AFTER 13 YEARS, I ALWAYS BABY THE CAR AND IT STILL LOOKS NEW. THANKS FOR ANY HELP WITH THIS MATTER”
