Repeatly since we have had the car we have had engine noises and failure to advance gear when driving. One of the more frightening incidents was when driving on the highway the engine lost power at 65+ . I last evening after just getting it back from the dealer my husband had it out with my son and it stalled again on him. I refuse to drive it to get my kids in college for fear of an accident somehow that does not seem right. I have a claim #7286397. Please help. Pat ryan.
