Consumer Description

After fueling the vehicle completely, the engine stalls multiple times while in motion. This happens for a few miles and re-starts before running normal again. When the engine stalls, the vehicle cannot accelerate and power-steering is not operable. The vehicle's engine has stalled when entering a highway and turning with cross-traffic. I fear myself and passengers will be struck by a moving vehicle with no control of the subject vehicle. A local mechanic stated the entire gas tank needs replaced but cannot confirm it will correct the defect. There is no warning when the engine stalls. This is my second complaint after years of no response. These events are ongoing.
