What owners wrote
When the gas tank is filling up, the gas nozzle continues to shoot gas out of the tank. This has happened every time we have filled our tank up regardless of what station we were using. Local dodge dealer said it was not related to the vehicles fuel system or design. This is a big safety hazard because the vehicle builds up a high static charge due to the fabric seats etc. Can be quite a shock which is not good to mix with this gasoline problem.
After filling up with gas engine stalled approximately 1/2 mile from the gas station. Had to coast to side of the road without power steering. Placed engine in park, turned of key and restarted. Engine ran rough had to depress accelerator for additional gas. Once restarted engine ran fine for the rest of the trip. This same problem also occurred in early january 1/03/2015 after filling up with gas. Not only is this an inconvenience, but very dangerous in heavy traffic scenarios.
