2005 SUZUKI VERONA Engine And Engine Cooling Problems

I PURCHASED THE 2004 SUZUKI VERONA LAST YEAR FROM A THIRD PARTY. THE ENGINE STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. IT COMPLETELY STOPS. LAST YEAR IT STOPPED COMPLETELY AND WOULD NOT TURN ON. LUCKILY NO CARS WERE BEHIND ME. I HAD TO CALL THE TOW TRUCK AND FIX IT. THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE FUEL INJECTION. I WENT ONLINE AND CHECKED FOR RECALL. THERE WERE RECALLS FOR THE ENGINE STALL BUT ONLY FOR 2004. THE CORPORATE OFFICE INFORMED ME THAT SINCE IT WAS A 2005 YEAR, THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I SPENT ALMOST $700 AND NOW THE PROBLEM STARTED ARISING AGAIN LAST SATURDAY. THE ENGINE ALMOST STALLED. I CALLED THE CORPORATE OFFICE AGAIN AND AFTER GIVING MY VIN # THEY SAID THAT NO RECALL HAVE BEEN LISTED WITH THAT VIN NUMBER. THEY EVEN SAID THAT HERE WERE NO OTHER RECALL FOR THAT YEAR AND MAKE WHICH I KNOW...
