2006 Chrysler 300 Fuel System Problems

The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler 300. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the vehicle shut off unexpectedly. The contact stated that the vehicle sputtered and stalled after refueling. There was an abnormal rumbling sound coming from the vehicle. The contact waited for 30 minutes to restart the vehicle. The accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to respond as needed. While driving and making a turn, the vehicle stalled. There were unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V002000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The local dealer was contacted and informed the contact that the vehicle could not be repaired. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was unknown.

Completed x53 extended warranty a year prior at dealership, car still stalls only after putting fuel even though always filling to 3/4-7/8 of tank. Had my children with me Car stalled again today at middle of busy street when about to make a left turn after i filled to 3/4 of a tank. Had dodge dealer in Manteca, CA diagnose after first stall half a year prior and they would not replace faulty new tank. Still had to pay diagnostic fee saying fuel liquid was getting into vapor lines and flooding engine and that new tank is not the issue even though it is allowing fuel liquid to pass through vent valve which caused saturation of vapor canister and purge solenoid and engine stalling. Car only stalls when pumping gas 3/4 tank or above

I have had issues with fueling the vehicle as when I fuel it I am only able to get a few cents in at a time before the gas pump clicks off or gas starts coming out of the fuel filler neck itself. At most I have been able to fill up my tank halfway but when I try to fill it a few cents worth of gas above halfway, I have engine stalling issues. To try to solve this issue I replaced all the external fuel vapor parts (charcoal cannister, EGR valve, PCV valve, purge solenoid, gas cap, and leak detection pump). The issue is clearly a problem with the internal components of the fuel tank itself. Chrysler has a X53 lifetime warranty for my type of vehicle but only for 19 gallon fuel tanks and my car has an 18 gallon tank. However, NHTSA investigation PE13-016 has shown that the defect (a swollen vent valve) affects both sizes of tanks. Chrysler said that the X53 lifetime warranty on the defective tank is VIN specific and would not cover my vehicle because it has a 18 gallon tank. Now my vehicle dashboard is saying that the gas cap is leaking but the gas cap was just replaced thus this further points to a pressure issue within the tank. Chrysler dealerships will not help me and contacting FCA resulted in them just telling me to contact a dealer to check if the warranty is available for me.

After Fueling on several occasions the vehicle just abruptly stalls out and it's very dangerous I notice that there is recalls on other 2006 Chrysler but mine isn't on there but I am very concerned about this as it could cause me to get in a accident

gasket around fuel pump failed allowing gas to pool on top of fuel tank under the back seat on passenger side . this resulted in a strong "gas/fuel" smell from fuel vapors colecting inside the car and the obvious risk of ignition/explosion and negative health effects of breathing said fumes .the vehicle has not been inspected yet because we are afraid to start the vehicle let alone drive it to the shop . We are making araingements to have it towed to the repair shop . we have not had any warning lights . Mechanic said it was a common problem with seal failure around fuel pump . the vehicle has 127,000 miles

There is a fuel leak coming from the rear right side near the right rear wheel. Fuel leaks when the tank is full.

The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler 300C. The contact stated that the fuel tank was previously replaced under an unknown extended warranty coverage; however, after the repair, the vehicle experienced a failure. The contact stated that after refueling the vehicle and driving at slow speeds, the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the failure recurred several times while driving and coming to a complete stop. The vehicle was towed each time the failure occurred. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled in the middle of the road during the last failure. The contact was able to push the vehicle to the side of the road with assistance. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and test-driven, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 214,624.

Once fueled, the engine will consistently stall from start to cruising speed, and has even shut off while driving. There was an issue with Chrysler fuel tanks evap valve sticking open, which causes this fault, however I have not received any assistance from Chrysler or any authorized dealer.

My Fuel Tank is stuck in open position, it is making my car stall, sputter, and cut off. When my gas is very low car doesn't cut off and runs fine, but when I fill car up it stalls and cuts off, this is very dangerous it cuts off at red lights, stop signs, slow traffic, I've seen this is a Warranty/Recall problem with the faulty fuel tanks, with stuck open fuel shutoff valve. My car is running at max fuel because of this problem. It's been like this since I bought car 2 months ago. I need this fixed immediately. And all parts on my car are brand new this Faulty fuel tank is the Culprit

Fuel leaking through gas gasket under rear passenger seat near electrical components. Gas Fumes fill vehicle cabin when fuel tank is full and could be ignited by a small spark. No warnings of issue on dashboard. EXTREME DANGER!

Car will shut off randomly after filling my tank up I've only had this vehicle for a few months I wasn't aware of this was going on a road trip with my kids I filled my tank up got on the highway was driving on middle lane normal driving an with out warning my cars dash lights come on an car shuts of instantly pulled over turned the key to off position an the car start right away

Gas puddles inside under rear seat causing strong smell of gas in cabin. Replaced oring gasket however that was not the problem and did not fix the issue. Still have not confirmed where the leak is coming from....it could be the plastic line, plastic nipple that the line connects too, or the plastic housing fuel transfer pump. Still unsure where it's leaking lots of gas.

My Chrysler 2006 300 C smells of heavy oder of fuel inside occupant seating area. upon investigation, found the fuel pump situated behind driver, under back seat, and the modulator is situated behind passenger seat. both fuel and assembly are exposed to occupants, leaking and accumulating pools of fuel. there is no safety barrier between the fuel and occupants! this is a critical DESIGN FAILURE for occupant safety!!! The modulator is made of plastic and exposed to caustic chemicals (fuel) which causes premature corrosive damage exposing all occupants of vehicle to multiple health risks including DEATH!! This vehicle needs to be recalled!!! and not only fix the issue with leaking fuel, the vehicle needs a fire proof barrier between the fuel system and the occupants.

When filling the gas tank to completely full, the engine will die without any warning. Does not happen when the tank is partially filled. Several times after completely filing gas tank, a couple hundred yards from gas station, car suddenly dies. Starts right up again and after driving a few more yards it dies again. It died on me about 5 times in a row. Could be deadly when pulling out into traffic.

Vehicle stalls after refueling. Used to be an annoyance, now dangerous. Driven 78000 miles like this. Heard about and have Netscape recall and Chrysler lifetime guarantee to replace known problem. It includes canister, valve, gas cap etc but they and Chrysler rep say they know nothing about it even though I gave them your and their own letter to us.

I here to report what seems to be an on-going issue with the older model Chrysler 300's. I have an 2006 and just recently started smelling gas fumes or an gas odor inside my car. I had a mechanic look at the problem. He assumes it was a cracked or damaged seal. He took the backseat out and looked. The ring was intact but the fuel filter had a small crack in it. We fixed it and thought the problem was over. He said the car would have a heavy fuel smell for a couple of days but would go away once the car was aired out. 3 DAYS go by and though the fumes remained. Now,i see that gas isactually leaking from the underside of the rear passenger side. And the smell is still there. I am taking the car to another repair shop to do a more through exam of the car. Leaking gas should be the least of my problems.

EVERY TIME I FILL MY CAR WITH GAS I GET A GAS SMELL INSIDE MY CAR AND GARAGE FOR THE NEXT FEW DAY. I CALL ABOUT A RECALL FOR MY CAR AND WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR WAS TOO OLD TO BE SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT.

FUEL VAPOR WAS LEAKING INTO OUR CAR THROUGH AIR VENTS AND FROM FUEL PUMP ITSELF. IT CAUSED THE CAR TO FAIL AND NOT START. HAD TO REPLACE FUEL PUMP, YET SAME THING KEEPS HAPPENING. NOW GASOLINE LEAKS FROM THE OUTSIDE UNDERNEATH THE CAR (WHEN DRIVING, OR PARKED BUT WITH CAR TURNED OVER) WHERE THE FUEL PUMP IS NON STOP.

CUT OFF WHEN TANK FULL OF GAS CAN'T PUT BUT 3/4 OF A TANK IN IT WHEN ARE GOING SLOW IT STALLS OUT

THE FUEL TANK LEAKS FUEL INTO THE CABIN AMY ANY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED MORE THAN HALF WAY UP; THAT OR ANY TIME IT IS MORE THAN A QUARTER FULL AND DRIVEN ON A STEEP HILL. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 7 OR 8 YEARS OR MORE NOW...IT STARTED IN AROUND 2012 I THINK, WHEN THE CAR HAD JUST OVER 100,000 MILES ON IT. I AM NEVER ABLE TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK BECAUSE OF IT. , AND IF I NEED TO GO UP OR DOWN A STEEP HILL (AND THERE ARE STEEP HILLS AND DRIVEWAYS ALL OVER THE AREA I LIVE IN), THE FUEL LEAKS INTO THE CAR AND THE FUMES ARE VERY STRONG.
