Editorial perspective by Tony Marino · Domestic and Mopar specialist
Look — Chrysler's fuel-system story is well-documented in the NHTSA file, and it ain't pretty. 590 complaints across 20 year-model entries from 2005 to 2017. Not a small number. The 2006 Chrysler 300 is doing the heavy lifting on this category — about 37% of every fuel-system complaint on Chrysler's record points back to that one year-model. 9 fire reports on the federal record — not common in this category but documented and worth weight. Average shop fix runs about $1,200 — not catastrophic, but it adds up over time. Across the 491 complaints reporting odometer mileage, the median failure lands at about 64,310 miles. Check the fuel pump access cover for prior work. A vehicle on this list that already had a pump replacement is a vehicle to consider — the work is done.
