NHTSA Complaint #10548825 — 2006 CHRYSLER 300C

AFTER FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK FROM A START OF 1/8 TH TO FULL TANK, THE CAR STALLED AFTER LEAVING THE SERVICE STATION ABOUT 200 FEET DOWN THE ROAD WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT. AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE RESTARTED I BEGAN TO ACCELERATE FROM THE STOPPED POSITION BUT DRIVING POWER TRAIN WAS FAIRLY ERRATIC AS THE CAR ATTEMPTED TO LURCH FORWARD OR ACCELERATE UNPREDICTABLY THEN WOULD PULL BACK BY NEARLY STALLING. THIS CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL MILES BEFORE REACHING MY DRIVEWAY. THE CAR WHILE IN NEUTRAL LOPED SUBSTANTIALLY FROM 2000 RPM TO 100RPM SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE STALLING. ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR AFTER STALLING WAS SUCCESSFUL. LEAVING THE CAR PARKED AND OFF FOR 60 MINUTES HAD NO BENEFICIAL EFFECT. AFTER RETURNING THE STARTING WAS VERY DIFFICULT AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES WERE NOT LIT UNTIL THE CAR STARTED AGAIN. THE CAR CONTINUES TO BE IDLE ERRATICALLY BOTH WHILE IN PARK AND IN DRIVE AND AT SLOW SPEEDS. *TR
