Now after I still have more then 3/4 tank of gas, my car will act fuel starved going down the freeway to an almost stall then come back on by itself.

NHTSA complaint #10550327, filed 2013-10, 89,300 miles“After filling gas tank ( full) the car stalls for the first couple of miles. Then stop shortly after. This is happening more and more. There was a recall for the 2005-2006 models with the 5.7 and 6.1 liter engines, but not for the 3.5 liter that I own even though I have found through the Chrysler forums this is a problem for many of these model ( 2005-20006) Chrysler gave a life time warranty to the 5.7 and 6.1 liter models , but not mine. Even though this is the same dangerous problem as those vehicles.”
