| Description of the problem | This is a defect petition filed pursuant to 49 u. S. C. 30162. Our 2007 grand caravan sxt has about 44,000 miles on it and it has begun stalling after refueling. This only happens when the fuel tank is refueled to full capacity. The problem started about a month ago. Today, my wife (with kids in car) stalled on the highway. The danger was that she was on a turn and the steering wheel became impossible for her to turn it. This is a major safety issue, and my hope is that chrysler makes good on a defective part. (i see they did that after a gov't investigation of a similar nature for other cars... After an investigation by nhtsa!) ***this is a widespread issue for vehicles from 2004 to 2013.
