2004 Dodge RAM 1500 Engine Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1203660
Internal NHTSA #	10744043
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	DODGE
Model	RAM 1500
Model Year	2004
File date	01/06/13
Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	As stated in other complaints, the vehicle will stall after slowing down at intersection of driving in heavy traffic. If you ride the brake and gas, you can keep from stalling. This incident started to happen after a smell of gas vapor smell after filling tank. Researched stalling and gas smell, was led to other scalp notice for hemi gas tank due to ethanol gas causing the rollover valve in the gas tank to expand and not close. When you fill the tank you get liquid gas in the purge vapor canister and line. This giving you the gas smell upon filling. I have stopped filling the tank past 3/4 and have not had the issue since. Kind of disappointed that other hemi models gas tanks were recalled, but not the truck even though it has the same issue.
