NHTSA Complaint #10574419 — 2005 CHRYSLER 300C

WHEN I COMPLETELY FILL MY GAS TANK, MY CAR WILL STALL FOR THE FIRST COUPLE MILES AT IDLE SPEEDS. SO EVERY TIME I STOP AT A LIGHT, I BASICALLY HAVE TO RESTART MY CAR FOR A MILE OR TWO UNTIL SOME GAS IS USED. SOMETIMES, I HAVE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT COMPLETELY AND RESTART THE CAR AS THE CAR WON'T GO INTO GEAR (IE: THE GEARS NEED TO RESET). THIS PROBLEM WAS OCCURRING PERIODICALLY WHILE THE CARE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT. FOR THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS, IT DOES IT EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK COMPLETELY WITH GAS. I HAVE A SON AND DAUGHTER THAT ARE STARTING TO DRIVE THIS YEAR, AND IT MAKES ME NERVOUS TO LET THEM DRIVE THIS CAR. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL LONG AGO AS THERE ARE MANY OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. I WAS ALSO WONDERING, IF I PAY THE $1,500 TO PUT IN A NEW GAS TANK AND THERE ULTIMATELY IS A RECALL, WILL I BE ABLE TO GET REIMBURSED? THAT WOULD BE VERY USEFUL INFORMATION. THANK YOU. *TR
