Consumer Description

ENGINE SUFFERS COMPLETE SHUTDOWN AT 30-40MPH. OCCURS 3-4 TIMES A WEEK AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR LAST 3-4 MONTHS. DEALER CAN FIND NO PROBLEM AND HAS NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM HOWEVER I SEE SEVERAL REFERENCES TO THIS EXACT PROBLEM AT THIS DATABASE AND ALSO WWW.CARREVIEW.COM. ENGINE WILL RESTART WITH NO PROBLEM HOWEVER OBVIOUSLY WHEN ENGINE STOPS ALL POWER TO BRAKING AND STEERING SYSTEM IS LOST. ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN COASTING, TYPICALLY DOWN LOW GRADE, AND TAKING A CORNER. I BELIEVE ISSUE IS TIED TO POWER STEERING, CLIMATE CONTROL AND LOW RPM (OR COMBO THEREOF) AS AT THIS SPEED THE TACHOMETER SWINGS WILDLY BETWEEN 400 AND 1200 RPM THOUGH SPEED IS STEADY (POSSIBLE EMISSION CONTROL ISSUE).*AK
