| Description of the problem | My 2007 rondo has been acting up, will not start directly after getting gas. My check engine light is on. Yesterday i did not get gas, however it stalled while i was driving and would not start as it does when i get gas. I fortunately was at an intersection. If it had stalled a little farther up the road i would have been rear ended as there was a car directly behind me. I have previously replaced the purge valve solenoid as suggested, no difference. Why is the 2. 7 rondo not recalled for this as the 2. 4 engine was? |
