Description of the problem	I have a 2009 toyota matrix xr. It stall intermittently , more frequently in humid weather. Can not "recreate" situation, but happens at least 5 times per week now that we are in a more rainy season. I first noticed this problem in november but it cleared up during the cold months and now is back with the fury. I took it to the dealership in december--again could not recreate for dealer. Yesterday it happened twice in city traffic. I have dropped off car at dealer and they looked at it today and couldn't find anything wrong. The car had 60 miles on it when i purchased it in november and currently has 6,300 miles. I have serviced it according to schedule.
