| Description of the problem | I put my foot on the brake at an intersection (came to a hard stop) after deceleration and the engine hesitated, then stalled/stopped completely. I must put the car in park and restart the engine to remedy the stall. This has occurred 4 times in the last week. In two situations, the vehicle behind me had started to accelerate, but my vehicle was not in motion because i must put the car in '(p)ark' to restart the car. This is a safety hazard because the car stops so abruptly. |
