Hello my name is Roland

 

Is the check engine light on?

When does the vehicle stall out? coming to a stop, high way speeds

 

Customer replied 1113 days and 5 hours ago.

The problem occurs when you are breaking to complete stop. It does not happen all the time, but I do not feel safe driving this car. The service engine light does not come on.

Have you replace the spark plug?

Customer replied 1113 days and 5 hours ago.

No. It is at the service department at the dodge dealership as we speak but they can't seem to figure out the problem. I would assume they have checked that. But no, I do not believe they have changed the spark plug. Should I suggest that to the service dept?

I have seen several vehicle that does not set codes and the vehicle stalls out when coming to stop. I have replace the spark plugs with OEM spark plugs and the vehicles have been running properly since.

I relayed your information to the service manager. Hopefully we will come up with something. We did discover that the car stalls right after you fill the tank with gas. Any suggestions?

If the vehicle stalls when filled up, more than likely the fuel vapors and fuel are getting into the vapor canister and when the purge solenoid actuates the fuel and vapors floods the vehicle out at idle do to excessive fuel taking the oxygen out of the intake.
