| Description of the problem | The moving vehicle inadvertently stalls. The stall has mostly occurred on the highway at speeds of 70-75 mph, as well as on-ramps and off-ramps. The frequency of occurrence is approximately (3-4) times per month. When the vehicle stalls i have to quickly put the vehicle in neutral and restart the engine. Fortunately the engine restarts immediately and i am able to resume driving. The problem was reported to a local (ri) dealership, who was unable to diagnose a problem/defect. I am apprehensive about driving this vehicle, and i am a police officer with extensive training. I will not allow my wife to operate this vehicle. |
