Engine stalls while driving and will not restart. I suspect that it is related to similar issues drivers are having with the evap canister purge valve in other model years: "the canister purge valve may malfunction and create excessive vacuum in the fuel vapor management system, which can result in the engine stalling without restarting. Dealers will reprogram the powertrain control module and replace the canister purge valve as needed. If the valve needs to be replaced, dealers will also inspect and replace the carbon canister, fuel tank and fuel delivery module as determined to be needed. All repairs will be performed free of charge to resolve the concern. ".
Was driving in town and my information display notified me that the car had 50 miles left to empty. Suddenly info display started dropping 1 or 2 miles every 10-30 seconds and went from 50 miles to 8 miles to e in less than 10 miles. I was lucky to be driving in town. If I had been on the interstate I could have run out of gas without enough warning and could have caused an accident. Not sure if the display was inaccurate and I had more gas? for perspective: if info display shows that car is getting an average 35. 4 mpg and holds 13. 5 gallons, should get 477 miles per tank. I added 11. 4 gallons, and info showed 441 miles to empty. 441/ 35. 4mpg = 12. 45 gallons should be in tank. 12. 45 gallons - 11. 4 added = 1. 05 gallons left in tank at fill up, which should have shown = 37. 17 miles to empty, not 8. I will keep and eye on this and see if it happens again. I will also keep track of mileage and calculate my mpg.
