Consumer Description

STALLS OCCURRED IN TRAFFIC AT 30 TO 35 MPH ON DECLINE WHILE BRAKING; ENGINE STALLED RESULTING IN LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. MANAGED TO TURN STEERING WHEEL WITH DIFFICULTY TO COAST OFF TWO LANE HIGHWAY TO SHOULDER. TURNED OFF IGNITION AND WAITED 2-3 MINUTES. RESTARTED VEHICLE WITHOUT PROBLEM AND RETURNED TO DEALER FOR SERVICING. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE VEHICLE SINCE THERE IS NO WARNING OF STALL WHICH HAS OCCURRED IN TRAFFIC WHERE REAR-ENDING BY FOLLOWING VEHICLE COULD HAVE OCCURRED. BELIEVE COMPUTER IS DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED ON 2001 AND 2002 ESCAPES. DT
