While driving on a major state highway, my temperature light came on and I heard a whining sound coming from the engine and my vehicle started to jerk. I was able to pull over to the shoulder when it stalled out. I let it sit for a couple of seconds and started the car. I took the car to the shop and they conducted a diagnostic check on the vehicle. I was told they found nothing wrong with the vehicle. They also told me that it could have been a lose gas cap that caused this issue. The last time I went to the gas station was about two days prior to the incident. I drove several places before the incident. If it was a gas cap issue, the car would have stalled out before that. Something needs to be done.

While accelerating I was hearing a rattling noise in the engine of the car. There also was a recall on the car regarding a faulty pcm which is supposed to detect an engine thermostat malfunction. I took my car into the dealership for the recall, and they looked at my engine and fixed the rattle which they told me was due to the pcm needing to be reset. . . . I read another complaint about the engine rattle and thought I would put mine in so the person could read this and now that the rattle is actually something due to the recall and not the type of gasoline they were using as they were told.
