My 2006 Chrysler 300C srt8 6.1L engine stalls randomly when stopped, coming to a stop or cruising speed. Sometimes it'll take months for reoccurrence then out of nowhere it happens while, engine stalled. Happens while make a turn at a light also. Starts back up and sometimes stalls instantly. After like the third stall check engine light comes on and the only fault code is P0700. Bought the car in 2015 and less than two months later is when I experienced my first occurrence. Took it to the dealership three times that year and they said they could not duplicate the problem or figure out what's wrong. About five months later (2016) it happens again, engine stalls out of nowhere on the freeway. This time it wouldn't start so I had it towed back to the dealership. After two months of them having my car they said it was the transmission control module so I agreed to replace it. Two months later same thing again so obviously the transmission control module wasn't the problem. Might I add that randomly while driving there is a hard "buck" from the transmission, like it wants to lock up. I've been in and out of the dealership with this problem for two years now and Chrysler claims to not know what the problem is. I am terrified every time I'm in this vehicle. I feel it is an accident waiting to happen. I'm still paying for this car but need to know what the issue is and how to solve it. Dealership says there is no recalls or updates available for my car.

Initially the vehicle began to shut off and restart at various speeds ranging from 45-65 mph, mileage on the vehicle when the problem surfaced was approx.138,000. In 2016 after replacement of the PCM, fuel tank, alternator, solenoid, battery, and cam shaft sensor the problem sporadically reoccurred every 300 miles, and failure has increased in frequency and now occurs regularly but sporadically at low speeds of 1-20 causing a full stall with no restart. The failure is typically at a light and when tempting aa turn. It has been observed during the high speed incidents, all electrical systems are in failure- dash lights go off, the analog RPM and speedometer gauges spontaneously drop to zero, and then the entire system restarts and gauges resume normal readings, all occurring within a few seconds at most. Additionally the vehicle will not start after sitting for 3 hours, the electrical works but engine will not turn over. After each incident car was taken for a diagnostic reading and either no fault code was registered, or an engine communication failure code occurs. This has been an on going issue for the past 2 years.

My srt8 will stall shortly after filling up with fuel. At the moment of stalling, obviously the power steering and power brakes fail to work, which is very dangerous irregardless of where you are....

After filling fuel tank in a gas station and starting warm engine the engine died after traveling approximately 300 feet while making a turn. Very dangerous situation. Engine re-started but continued to die on and off for approximately 2 miles. Have not driven car since.

Dropped valve seat at 72K miles. All maintainance done on time. One day the car just wouldn't start, took it to the shop, found a drop valve on cylinder 5.

The check engine light of this cars constantly stayed on after countless attemps to "fix" the problem for years. Finally the engine just died. It was serviced repeatedly, with tune ups, spark plug changes, but the engine always misfired shorlty after. The car is just 10 years old. There should never be a problem like this on a high quality vehicle.

My son was driving the call when it first happened where he was on hwy 155 and the engine shut off he had to pull off to the side and then he was able to start it and get the car home. I drove it and it did the same thing where the engine shut off while driving. Had full take of gas and everything. Dash lights would flicker and go out and engine shuts off and it kept doing the same thing. But no Chrysler dealership could figure out why it was doing that. The vehicle was in motion when it would shut off. Chrysler is stating to everyone that it was lack of maintenance for the 2006 Chrysler C. they had replaced the gas tank but never said why it needed it replaced. But after it was replaced kept shutting off and now my car needs a new engine.

Tamara recall engine has stopped several times while I have been driving it and some while stopped at a red light. The power steering stops and become difficult to steer and I get afraid until I can fight it and stop and restart the engine. Have not taken it in for repair yet.

Engine failure. No warning lights. Engine felt like it was running on less the 8 cylinders. I pulled into the first gas station to shut the car off and check all fluid levels (all fine). Started the motor, would not idle and died. Turned the key again and heard the motor completely clunk around out of sync. That was the end of my 2006 300C

- Los Angeles, CA, USA

Mechanic said the exhaust valve dropped in the cylinder and caused catastrophic failure, needs the complete new engine. I have replaced the oil vigorously every 4500 mile with synthetic oil. The car has 189000 miles on it and there are tons of reports that show this is very common after 100K miles.

Started experiencing problems last year. Car would cut off without warning, cut off while in a turn and I was almost hit by oncoming traffic. Took it to the dealer, dealer stated it was PCM. Had the control module fixed ($1000 repair) and now recently we have been experiencing an issue where the car wants to cut off at all speeds. Today, my husband drove it to the gas station and it cut off on him and then wouldn't start back up. It started up a few min after sitting but traffic was too busy so we were unable to drive it home. It is still parked at the gas station and we are hoping well be able to get it home before having to call a tow truck. Replaced spark plugs 1 1/2 weeks ago because we assumed it was misfiring (when it was wanting to cut off). We've changed the camshaft (prior to having the PCM replaced) and egr valve as well. There is no check engine light but have still attempted to get codes read... no codes. This seems to be an ongoing issue that Chrysler needs to take care of. I will never buy another car that Chrysler has had a hand in making..... how many complaints need to take place before you realize that this will kill someone... but I guess you'd rather a lawsuit on your hands for a death rather then fixing all these cars the right way. #unsatisfiedbuyer took a shot at this beautiful car and am sadly disappointed 2006 300C 5.7L hemi. Whats the point of having such a beautiful car if you can't even drive it.

Car randomly stalls, at any speed, dash lights flash on and off, wipers turn on by them self, horn sounds by itself. Had it at the dealership for 2 months, had at sometimes 40+ codes come up on the computer. Changed multiply modules they cant figure it out

The car will stall unexpectedly. Often when idling at a stoplight, and sometimes when I am driving the oil light warning comes on, the engine cuts out, and power steering ceases to work. I must restart the car and rev the engine before proceeding, it has yet to happen while driving at high speeds on the freeway. On more than one occasion I have had the local Chrysler dealership mechanics look at the car, and the problem still persists, usually with increased frequency after filling the gas tank to full. To reiterate, often when I am idling at a stoplight the Chrysler 300 stalls. But this sometimes happens when I am in motion driving down a road as well. The mechanics I have had look at my car have found nothing wrong. But it usually happens with greater frequency right after I fill the gas tank to full.

After fueling, car stalled while in motion at slow speed exiting parking lot. Stalled again a mile further when entering garage, both times while turning. Car has 19000 miles.

I own a 2006 Chrysler 300C. Since 2013, I have experienced issues with the vehicle stalling while driving at low speeds. The car stops completely, sometimes restarting on its own, sometimes it does not. Chrysler replaced the fuel tank in 2015, stating that was the cause of the issue, but the car continues to stall. Most recently, it stopped while merging onto a busy highway, while driving with my wife and children in the car. The car randomly turns off, no warning. Now the vehicle stopped and refuses to start at all.

2006 Chrysler 300C. Car has 84,000 miles. Drove around today for a half hour. Parked car. Restarted car in 5 minutes, it made a horrible sound and car started shaking, ran rough and then died. Would only restart with foot on gas and ran very rough. Took it to Firestone and they said that the valve/cyliner #5 dropped. Engine is shot, unless I pay to have it re-bult or replaced. Car is not even worth it. Already had to have a re-bult transmission on car at 68,000 miles. Car is a joke and so is Chrysler, never buying another one of their products again. Oil was changed regularly. Horrible manufacturing in this car, from engine to trans to gas tank issue to electical. Car is a lemon.
