| I have a 2006 chrysler 300c bought it new and never had any problems until 2012 when we were traveling for the holidays and stopped to refuel. after filling the tank we started the car and proceeded to drive, the car started bucking and then would shut off. it did this twice before it stopped and then drove fine for the rest of the trip. it did the same thing on our way home after filling the gas tank but after doing it several times it drove fine for the rest of the trip. once home the car drove fine until i filled it up with gas and the problem started again. it bucks and then stalls, sometimes it will start right away and other times i had to let it sit a while. this has happened in the middle of an intersection, at a stop light and while just driving along. this is scary as well as dangerous because not only does it stop anywhere which could cause another car to hit you, the steering wheel locks and on one occasion i almost hit another car because i couldn't steer out of the way during a turn. took it to the dealership and was told i need to replace the gas tank gave me info about cannisters and vapors and not being something that is serviceable. of course it's going to be expensive but this type of problem is a danger on the road could lead to a serious accident. *tr | |||

| After filling up the gas tank, the car stalls when at speeds of less than 15 miles per hour. it stalls in the middle of intersections and on turning on to streets. took the car into the chrysler dealer and they informed us that the gas tank had to be replaced because of bad evap solenoid which is permanently affixed to the fuel tank. it is very dangerous to drive after filling up because of the chance of being rear ended. *tr | |||

| After refilling the vehicle with gasoline i travel about a mile from the service station and while coming to a traffic light the vehicle rpm began to decrease until the car engine shut off; i was able to restart the engine and the vehicle drove a short distance and began to stall again. i restarted the vehicle and was able to get the vehicle off the road into a parking lot; after sitting briefly i restarted the vehicle and drove it to tire kingdom to have it checked, the technician scan the vehicle and determined that there was no codes available to determined what caused the malfunction. he took the vehicle for a test drive but was not able to duplicate the discrepancy; in his opinion since the vehicle tank had just got filled more that likely the problem was caused by a vapor lock. i was told since the problem could not be duplicated to continue with my travel and if the problem returned to return the vehicle back for evaluation. *tr | |||
