Consumer Description

MY MERCEDES YEAR MODEL 2000 ML320 ENGINE STALLS WHILE DRIVING; MOST OFTEN IT COMES AS A SURPRISE WHEN I AM CRUISING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS AND SLIGHTLY BACK OFF ON THE THROTTLE. THE ENGINE TOTALLY SHUTS DOWN AND WILL RESTART AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES. IT DOES NOT SEEM LIKE A FUEL PUMP PROBLEM BECAUSE THE CAR WILL RUN FINE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AFTERWARD WITHOUT SHUTTING DOWN. *JB
