This problem is related to the purge solenoid. The evaporative emissions system stores fuel vapors from the tank and then burns them in the engine, to keep the vapors from going into the atmosphere. When you fill the tank with fuel the air and vapor that the fuel displaces has to go into the evap system. There is a valve on top of the tank that allows the vapor out, but is supposed to shut off when liquid fuel hits it as the tank fills. What happens is this valve fails and it allows you to push liquid fuel into the evap system when you push too much fuel into the tank. This liquid fuel goes into the vapor canister and lines. When you start the engine a couple minutes later the purge solenoid will come on to do it's job and burn these vapors, but with this failed valve it sucks up liquid fuel instead, so the engine runs rough and can die at idle. The vehicle stalls for the next 5 miles or so whenever you take your foot off the gas, I.e. taking a turn or sitting at a traffic light. The vehicle bucks violently as well. When the engine stalls it cuts all power to the vehicle causing you to lose power steering and the ABS. Because the vehicle is vapor locked it will not restart immediately. My fear is that I am going to pull into traffic and be involved in an accident when my vehicle stalls and will not restart or I'll be injured when it happens taking a curve or turn. Chrysler customer service center says they have no service bulletins on this issue and no one else has complained about. A quick internet search (Dodge Charger stall after filling with gas) shows it is a wide spread issue not only with the Charger but the magnum and Chrysler 300 as well. Only way to fix issue is to replace the entire gas tank which is a $900 part with 2-3 hours labor.

The car would lose all power within a 10th of mile after filling up with gasoline. The car gives no warning signals, but stalls out. This happen also when the fuel tank was a fourth of tank of gas. The car would restart, within minutes after placing it in park. ( remind you I am sitting in middle of highway with no tail lights, or flashers) this is a major concern of mine. I was lucky that I did not get rear ended when the car stalled during "rush hour" traffic. The next day, I took the car to the dealership to have the problem checked and fixed. I was informed the fuel tank canister had a valve that was operating incorrectly causing the problem. The fuel tank and canister needed to be replaced. The total cost to me was $1548. The cost was high, but the chance of getting into a wreck and causing injuries was worth the price to fix to me. I feel since has been a problem with other 2006 Chargers an investigation of the part needs to happen before someone does get killed.

The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that when the fuel tank was filled to capacity, the vehicle stalled then the oil pressure light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who replaced the fuel tank and the fuel operational canister. However, the failure was not corrected. The vehicle continued to stall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000 and the current mileage was 109,000. The VIN was not available.

The engine stalls after I fill the fuel tank to its full capacity. This stalling usually occurs within a block or so after leaving the gas station. I then have to sit on the side of the road, or in the middle of the road and wait a few minutes before the engine will re-start. Lately, I have not filled the gas tank to its full capacity. I feel this is a real safety issue. I understand that this is a problem with the rollover valve on the top of the fuel tank and the only way to correct this issue is to have the fuel tank replaced.

After fueling my 2006 Dodge Charger R/T, the car will begin to sputter and completely shut-off. This results in the loss of power steering and having to put the car into park in order to restart. It will occur multiple times, sometimes while idling, before it will begin to act normally.it has been happening for several months. At first, it was sporadic but now it is everytime I fill up the gas tank. It can be very dangerous as it can happen anytime and without warning.

My car started dying after being filled at the gas station. It was very dangerous driving and slowing down to have it die. Clearly there is a problem somewhere in the fuel system.

I am no longer able to fill my gas tank to the full level every time. Very inconvient.

Notice fuel smell in my garage. Took to mechanic and found gas tank strap has punctured fuel tank on passenger side of vehicle. Upon inspection found that gas tank strap is missing foam insulation between tank and strap. This vehicle is not driven in winter so it is very clear that this foam was not installed at factory. I have contacted Chrysler to see if they will repair vehicle since it is out of warranty. Looking up on internet there are pages of gas fumes from Dodge Chargers. This is a safety hazard since gas fumes are highly flammable.
