Description of the problem	While driving our 2004 mercury mountaineer, all of the sudden it will stall and a light will come on showing "engine fail safe mode". There is no power at all and the car needs a few minutes before starting up again. This has happened 3 times now and all in traffic. We have had to pray that we would not be hit or worse yet, killed. We have taken it to the dealerdhip twice now (the 1st time they said it was bad gas and sent us on our way) and all they can say the last two times is "we can't duplicate the problem". This is very unsafe and we are very afraid to drive this vehicle.
