| Description of the problem | My car has stalled plenty of times within 3 months. Two of which i could have been killed on the hwy!. Car stalls, no power then shuts off. I would shut it off for a bit then turn it back on. I did take it in to the shop and they found nothing else but was charged for throttle and new sparks. Oh, and no lights on dash. Same thing happened. Lots of money spent. I still owe on it so i can't afford to get another car. Don't know what to do next. |
