Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAS STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AT LEAST 12 TIMES OVER SEVERAL YEARS. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED AND HAS ALWAYS HAPPENED IN HOT WEATHER. THE LAST SEVERAL TIMES WERE ON A BUSY, CURVY HIGHWAY WITH NO ROOM TO PULL OFF ROAD AND ALMOST LED TO AN ACCIDENT. THE VILLAGER'S FUEL PUMP BECOMES VERY NOISY WHEN TRYING TO RESTART ENGINE. AFTER ABOUT 15 TO 20 MINUTES IT WILL RESTART. PLEASE INFORM ME OF WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE. IT HAS NEVER HAPPENED IN COLD WEATHER. I AM AFRAID AN ACCIDENT COULD HAPPEN. THERE IS NO WARNING AT ALL.*AK
