Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE STALLS WITHOUT WARNING AS I AM COMING TO A STOP (SUCH AS A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN). THERE IS NO WARNING IN THE WARNING LIGHTS AND THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN NUMEROUS TIMES. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND HAVE HAD THE CAR UNDER A YEAR. I BOUGHT IT WITH ALMOST 39, 000 MILES ON IT AND ONLY HAVE 41, 800 ON THERE NOW. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I AM HAVING THE SPARK PLUGS REPLACED AND HAVING A MAINTENANCE CHECK AS THEY SUGGESTED FOR A FEE....AND FOR A LARGER FEE (NEARLY 400.00) I CAN GET THE FULL SERVICE THEY THINK MAY ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM?? I FIND THIS PROBLEM TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND HAVE SEEN WHERE OTHER OWNERS ARE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND WHEN WILL SOMETHING BE DONE ABOUT THIS? THERE SHOULD BE A RE-CALL ON THIS AS IT POSES A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
