Consumer Description

SINCE OCTOBER 2001, MY ECLIPSE HAS BEEN STALLING WITHOUT WARNING. BOTH THE ``CHECK ENGINE'' AND ``OIL'' LIGHTS ILLUMINATE AND I LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AS IT SLOWS TO A STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY. EACH TIME, I'VE NEARLY BEEN REAR-ENDED. SEVERAL MECHANICS HAVE RUN DIAGNOSTIC CHECKS ON MY CAR. BUT THE PROBLEM HAS NEVER BEEN DETECTED. MEANWHILE, MY CAR CONTINUES TO CUT OUT WHEN LEAST EXPECTED AND REGARDLESS OF SPEED. I WISH THIS PROBLEM COULD BE DIAGNOSED AS I SEE FROM OTHER COMPLAINTS THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE DRIVING A DEATH TRAP.*AK
