After filling up the gas tank the car stalled out while driving. Its been happening for a long time now. This only accrues after filling up only.

The car will stall within a minute or so of filling up the gas tank. This has happened about 95% of the time I filled up the tank. If I feel the stall coming on I can throw it in neutral and rev the engine for about 10 seconds and it won't stall anymore. I first began to notice it at least 8 months ago. I stopped filling the tank all the way just to avoid this because it caused me to stall while going thru an intersection and backing up traffic. I was told I needed to buy a new gas tank to rectify this issue.

I pulled out on a major road and the gas pedal assembly broke off of the mounting bracket. I was in a spot where I couldn't pull over safely so I had to reach down and try to operate the throttle by hand while driving. Upon closer inspection, the plastic part of the gas pedal that holds the gas pedal to the mounting bracket broke off. This vehicle is equipped with the "pursuit" or law enforcement package.

Car would keep accelerating for a few seconds after removing foot from pedal. When it completely failed the car would rev to 4000 rpms in neutral without even touching the accelerator pedal. Put the car in drive when the rpms dropped and it just took off. Pedal appeared to be fine and where it was supposed to be. Had the car towed to the dealership and the pedal assembly was replaced. The tech duplicated the same problem I was experiencing.

On Feb. 17, 2011, I started to accelerate onto I-495 in Maryland. Hitting the accelerator for a fast take off, the accelerator broke off and the car went from 15 mph to 80 mph in 5 sec. I immediately put the car in neutral, got to the side of the road and applied the brakes. If there had been a another vehicle in front of me, I probably would not be making this post right now. So far, Chrysler of Dodge has done nothing. I did order a replacement accelerator assembly and made the repair. This could have been a fatality, if not for god and my own professional experience as a driver. Dodge should at the least pay for the parts and labor of this repair.

This morning I began to back out of the garage when the vehicle increased acceleration on its own, I was able to brake but I could feel the pressure of the acceleration against the brake. I stopped the car then proceeded to back out again, and it did the same thing. I then shifted it into drive and began moving forward. I live off of a dirt road so I usually like to drive very slow, sometimes coasting (the terrain is flat with no down or upgrade)but I usually have to tap the accelerator to keep it coasting. This morning it wanted to accelerate on its own going forward, and I had to repeatedly push the brakes. So this happened moving forward and backward. I don't want to drive it in fear of severe acceleration. Also, prior to this incident, I have recently felt like it was losing acceleration as I coasted, it feels slightly jerky, but I am driving on somewhat soft sand when this happens, only, it's never done that in the past. I haven't been too worried about this since it seems fine when I am driving above 10 mph. Have there been any reports of this nature?

Brakes have locked up X3. Vehicle almost skidded into the back of another vehicle @ 40mph. Afraid to drive vehicle. Had it checked out by dealership & repair shop, nothing wrong. Repair shop did note brake squeak and vehicle shaking even at low mph during test drive- he had just put new rotor and brake pads less than 3mnths ago! vehicle also has a noticeable 'kick' or 'jarring' when driving- even at 5-10mph in parking lot when accelerator pedal is not even pressed. I am very afraid to drive this car especially w/my child. This is my only vehicle and as a single mother and educator -safety, security, and reliability is important.

The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Charger. While driving approximately 35 mph on normal road conditions, the contact depressed the accelerator pedal. She immediately heard a beeping noise followed by excessive hesitation. In addition, there was an extremely low power response during acceleration. The failures occurred without warning. The vehicle resumed normal operation and was taken to an authorized dealer for inspection. The technician was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer on five separate occasions for identical failures, but there were no resolutions. The failure mileage was 23,723 and current mileage was 39,000. Updated 06/09/09. The consumer stated while driving, the vehicle would shut off for no apparent reason. All of the gauges on the dashboard would just drop. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer on several occassions, but to no avail. No error codes displayed on the computer. There was no check engine light. Updated 06/11/09.

Purchased July 14, 2006. It ran great with no problems until July 26. I went to take a left out of my company's parking lot and the car sputtered and would accelerate fast. I had to pull off on the left side of the road to get out of the way of oncoming traffic. I put it in neutral and gave it some gas. I attempted to go again when the traffic was clear and it sputtered more until I gave it a lot of gas and then it drove fine. I though it was an isolated incident so I drove it home. That night my wife, son and I took the car to the mall. Upon leaving the mall it did it again and the engine light was on. The dealership was still open and close by so I drove it directly there. They gave me a loaner to drive while they attempted to fix it. On August 9, they gave the vehicle back to me. That night it did it again, except the vehicle actually died on me in the middle of traffic. The next day it was back to the dealer where is sat for 37 days while they tried to figure out what was wrong. They replaced all the oxygen sensors, the power control module, the wiring harnesses and I am sure there were some other things. They test drove it for 9 key cycles and 250 miles and were 98% confident they fixed it so I got the car back on September 15. The next day the same problem returned and I was 50 miles from home and this time the idling of the car was so rough that the car was visibly shaking. I had a friend follow me home and since it was a Saturday night, the dealership was not open and would not be until Monday. Monday morning I started the car up and let it idle 5 minutes before leaving. When I got in, it was idling rough again and the engine light was flashing. I shut it down, called a tow truck and it is back at the dealership where it will stay because I am not taking it back. I have requested vehicle replacement from Chrysler and the dealership. Now here I am 5 days later and there is still no answer as to when I will get a new vehicle.

I am about to file a lemon law complaint because Dodge has been "unable to duplicate" the most serious problems that have plagued my vehicle, a 2006 Dodge Charger R/T, since day four of my ownership. I have owned this car for 68 days and of those, I have only been able to drive the functioning car for 19 days. They have fixed a number of minor issues and notified me that they would be unable to fix or do not know how to fix at this time, some minor issues including the air conditioning compressor problems (which they say they have also been "unable to duplicate". the serious issues that are occurring when it idles, when it accelerates and with what seems to be the suspension and possibly both the engine and transmission. Of those 68 days, they have come to pick up my car on three different occasions to try and fix it, the last time (which continues currently) they have had my car for four weeks. I happen to know (upon researching after the prolonged period they have had the car) that tsb's or technical service bulletins have been issued for every problem that is occurring with my car. Additionally, I have taken my car to two different mechanics (one Dodge dealership and one independent mechanic) that have witnessed these malfunctions. I would like to know what my options are legally for getting some kind of resolution.
