Car dies right after filling the gas tank. This has happened numerous times while driving at a low speed, idling away from the gas pump, or stopped at a stop sign or traffic light. Last time this happened, I was almost hit in the rear at a traffic light when the car stalled. Local Chrysler dealership acknowledged the problem was a faulty part that is molded into the 19 gallon fuel tank but said my car wasn't covered. My mechanic verified that the "rollover" valve in the tank was indeed faulty. Have talked to Chrysler twice about this problem but they have flatly refused any assistance even though they agreed that my car has a 19 gallon tank. I know that Chrysler has already had to replace over 150K of these faulty tanks. Mine is faulty also but they will not do anything. This is a serious and dangerous situation. I have parked the car for now out of concern for safety.

Vehicle dies while driving and wile coming to a stop in town. No check engine light. Took it in to the Chrysler dealership and they diagnosed a bad fuel tank. The inlet flapper on the fuel tank is defective allowing fuel to overflow the charcoal canister. This is the same problem as the 2005-2006 models that now come with a lifetime warranty on fuel tanks. I called Chrysler and they are not willing to work with me to replace it or consume some of the costs, and it is a safety issue. It has dies out in the middle of an intersection 5 times and wont always re-start. Sometimes it takes 5-10 minutes, and other times it starts right back up. This recent issue happened less than two weeks after having a leak detection pump replaced.

Just filled up with premium 93 gas. Was heading to work & stopped at a light. Car idle became rough. RPM's dropped & the car stalled. It took 2 tries to restart it while I was sitting at the light with traffic behind & in front of me. Once started it ran fine. No obd2 codes could be found. It has done this 4 times in the last year. Brand of gas doesn't matter.
