Unable to fill gas tank because of defect in gas tank.. it appears that a roll over safety item, designed to cut off fuel from pouring out of the filler pipe, malfunctioned and caused the fuel pipe to be blocked at the tank. this is an expensive repair, as the gas tank, fuel pump and sending unit need to be replaced, i called chrysler and lodged a complaint, and was told there are no recalls or service bulletins for this problem. *tr | |||

My truck stalls as i come to a stop. this happens probably about 4 times a month since the date above. the dealership hasn't been able to find the problem. i have read on forums online that a ton of other people are having the same problem. some say it has to do with erg valve and it should be recalled. they said they replace the egr valve and the problem is fixed. | |||

My 2004 dodge ram 1500 pick up with a 5.7 liter engine began to stall upon braking and coming to a stop. the engine would lose rpm and die (stall) leaving me with no brakes or steering. it would restart easily but occur again frequently. took the vehicle to a repair shop and after extensive and expensive diagnosis was found to have a failing throttle body and associated electrical failure. a new throttle body was obtained from dodge (different part number from original) and installed. total cost for the work was approximately $2,500.00. my research shows that this problem is extensive in this model and is dangerous. | |||

Tl-the contact owns a 2004 dodge ram 1500. the contact stated that when filling up his gas tank he has to fill up a one dollar at a time or the fuel will spill back out. no warning lights have illuminated on the instrumental at all. the manufacturer was contacted and informed him that he may need to replace the gas tank. the vehicle was inspected by a dealer who informed him that he may need to replace the gas tank as well, but is unsure. the vehicle has not been repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 119,000. tb | |||

I have a 2004 dodge 5.7 l 4x4 i have noticed that when i run the truck down to e and refill it to full the truck will stall when coming to a hard stop. the rpm goes up and down between 1000 and 2000 rpm. this only happens once after i fill the truck. i have looked on the inter net (edmonds/car dodge trucks stalling problems and have located other the same problem. i also have a friend with the same truck and he is having the same issues. there are no codes or dash board lights coming on after it stalls. i am taking to a dealer to have it looked at and i asked if there were any reports of this truck stalling and they never heard of any. if you have had any complaints like this please let me know. thank you for your time. p.s. i got this truck used. *tr | |||

My 2004 dodge ram1500 v8 5.7 l engine 2wd stalls at intersections in cold temperatures. also at times when the accelerator pedal is pressed there is no rmp increase. the stalling is extremely dangerous as i am at an intersection, i have to quickly restart the engine and hopefully not get rearended. i first noticed this problem at approximately 60k. i talked to my mechanic who informed me that there was a fuel system problem with dodge 2003 and 2004 1500 v8 5.7 l engines for trucks. he directed me to a web site were i discovered several sub sites with people describing the same problems i am experiencing. engine stalling in cold temperatures at intersections with their 2003 and 2004 dodge ram 1500 v8 5.7l engines. some of them did get into crashes unable to avoid getting rearended. i was also informed by my mechanic that both 2wd and 4wd trucks with the 1500 v8 5.7 l engines had this fuel system problem. my truck stalling is numerous daily, some times 2 or 3 times in the morning on the way to work, and again 2 or 3 times on the way home. what i have discovered is if i allow the engine to warm up, approximately 10 minutes, i won't stall. to be safe from getting rearended it's best i waste a little gas each time i start the engine. my mechanic also informed me that the problem has to do with an improper throttle body. the repair would be to remove the improper throttle body and install a proper throttle body. i did contact my dodge dealership and talked to the service manager, (who shall not be named per your request), who informed me that there was no recall on my vin number, of my truck, but would not tell me if their were any recalls on any 2003 or 2004 dodge ram 1500 v8.5.7 l engines for an improper throttle body causing stalling in cold temperatures when coming to a stop at an intersection. i am going to pay my deductible at the dealership and get my truck safe, but i also want to be reimbursed. this is unsafe and should be recalled. thank you! *tr | |||
