NHTSA Complaint #11365848 — 2006 CHRYSLER 300C

7/11-5/12, I TOOK MY 2006 300C HEMI INTO MY DEALERSHIP FOR MY CAR STALLING AFTER I HAVE DRIVEN IT PAST 1/4 TANK THEN FILL IT UP. I WAS TOLD DIFFERENT REPAIRS WAS CAUSING THE ISSUE. ON 5/4/12 I GOT AN ANSWER IT WAS MY FUEL TANK. MY WARRANTY RAN OUT 12/10 THE DEALER WANTED $1500 TO REPLACE THE TANK. I CONTACTED CHRY CORP EXPLAINED WHAT I HAD BEEN DEALING FOR THE LAST 10 MOS. I DIDN'T HAVE MONEY TO REPAIR. CHRY OFFERED TO HELP HAD ME PAY A DEDUCTIBLE OF $245. MY MILEAGE WAS ABOUT 57,000. I WAS THANKFUL FOR CHRYSLER HELPING ME OUT. IN 2013 THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL TANK. I CALLED CHRY CORP AGAIN AND THEY SAID YES IT IS A RECALL & OFFERED TO REFUND ME BACK FOR THE DEDUCTIBLE I PAID. NOW IN 2020 MY CAR IS DOING THE EXACT THING, (125K MI) WANTING TO STALL/DOES STALL AFTER I RAN PAST 1/4 TANK, THEN FILL IT UP. I TOOK MY CAR TO MY PRIVATE MECHANIC, HE TOLD ME THIS IS A RECALL TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID MY VIN # WAS NOT ON THE LIST. I CALLED CHRY CORP EXPLAINED WHAT I WAS EXPERIENCING. THEY TOLD ME THEY DO NOT TAKE 3RD PARTY DIAGNOSIS, I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO A CERTIFIED CHRY DEALER. I DID AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS MY FUEL TANK! CHRYSLER CORP SAID THERE'S NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME MY VIN# DOES NOT QUALIFY, BESIDES THE WARRANTY EXPIRED! ON THE FORUMS I READ SAID THIS RECALL IS A LIFETIME RECALL. I SENT MY WORK ORDERS TO BOTH DEALER & CORPORATE AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID MY FUEL TANK WAS NEVER REPLACED JUST FUEL PUMP. ALL THESE YEARS I NEVER LET GAS TANK GET LOWER THAN 3/4 TANK, IT WAS A HABIT FROM MY PRIOR PROBLEMS. UNTIL 9/14/20 I RAN MY GAS PAST 1/4 TANK AND FILLED UP. AS SOON AS I WAS DRIVING ON SIDE STREETS WHEN I WOULD COME TO A STOP AT A SIGNAL AND START TO GO. MY CAR WOULD DO THE EXACT SAME THING AS 2011-2012! SENDING ALL MY INFO I WAS STILL DENIED BY CHRYSLER TO FIX FUEL TANK RECALL!! PLEASE HELP, TO REPAIR NOW IT'S $2500!!!
