NHTSA Complaint #10555149 — 2005 CHRYSLER 300

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER W/O HAVING THE EXPERIENCE OF THE 300C STALLING WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PREVIOUSLY. THE CAR NOW STALLS 3 TO 4 TIMES AFTER REFUELING. I HAVE PURCHASED HIGH-OCTANE GAS FROM THE SAME VENDOR SINCE 2004 W/ NO ISSUES. MY MECHANIC THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE RESIDUE FROM THE GAS TANK GIVEN THE VEHICLE AGE OR AN AIR BUBBLE BECAUSE I LET THE TANK GET TO ~ 2 GALLONS. MECHANIC COULD NOT FIND ANY CODES INDICATING ISSUES. THE CAR NOW STALLS W/I A MINUTE OF REFUELING WHILE TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR SEVERAL TIMES BETWEEN STATION & HOME. THE CAR WILL NOT START IN N, IT HAS TO BE IN P. TYPICALLY THE NEXT DAY AFTER REFUELING THE CAR IS FINE, FORTUNATELY I DID NOT MAKE IT TO THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR STALLED REQUIRING THE MORE THAN 2 TURNS OF THE KEY IN P. AGAIN NO READINGS ON AUTOSCANNER THAT I PURCHASED BECAUSE TIME/$ PROHIBIT GOING TO MECHANIC CONSTANTLY. MY SON IS LEARNING TO DRIVE AND TEACHING A 16 YEAR OLD HOW TO OPERATE A STALLED VEHICLE WITH NO STEERING IS DIFFICULT. UPON STALLING, THE CAR BRAKES ARE THE ONLY OPTION OF CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE. I HOPE CHRYSLER FINDS A FIX BECAUSE THIS CAR HAS BEEN VERY RELIABLE. *TR
