4 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 08/26/2007

From the time I got my car in 6/07, I have also had problems with the ac system having a mind of its own. 1 and 2 won't work and the ac power light flickers on and off while driving and resetting it to pull the air from outside instead of circulate. The previous owner also stated that she had problems with the car not starting in the morning and having to wait about 15 minutes. Haven't had any problems with it stalling, but have only had it 2 months. Occasionally while at a light or in park, I feel the car jolt slightly and the rpm gauge moving, and while in park pressed the gas to see what it would do, and while my foot was steady on gas, the rpm went up and down like crazy. Mechanic friend of mine looked at motor briefly and said I had a bad sensor.

8 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 11/07/2003

My 2000 Chevrolet Malibu (36,000 miles) recently stalled 4 times while I was driving at high speeds on the highway. On Friday 10/7 I was going approximately 80 mph when the car suddenly turned off. I coasted to a stop on the shoulder. In about 5 minutes I was able to cut the car back on. At which time it resumed driving normally for about 10 miles. Then it stalled again. I towed the car into town and drove it to a repair shop. (yes, the car drove normally around town). The repair shop tested it and was unable to find anything wrong. When I picked the car up I drove about 40 miles (again at greater than 75 mph) and the car stalled again. It started back up in 2-3 minutes. Then 30 miles later stalled again. This time on a part of the highway where there was no shoulder! I coasted the car until the shoulder reappeared, pulled on to it and re-started the car. The car does not show any symptoms of the problem in my day-to-day driving around town. However, it is not suitable to drive for long distances or at high speeds due to this condition.
