Engine Stall problems of the 2000 Hyundai Elantra

Engine stall , severely while driving on highway. Also I had to pay midas $600 for brake rotor job front and back.

I have had an intermittent low-speed stalling problem with my 2000 Hyundai Elantra for a long time. Finally I recently had a technician drive the car for a week, and he was able to duplicate the condition and the dealer suggested replacing the throttle position sensor and then after giving them the ok on doing it, they installed the part, only to tell me later to do a very expensive repair (over 1,700 dollars for replacing the wiring harness). Having paid for the throttle position sensor, I began driving the car again. I not only noticed no improvement at all in the performance of the car, the performance was actually worse. I tried to get the dealership service department to stand by their repair, but they wouldn't. In "recalls" on my computer I found that there was a stalling problem for all models of 2000 Hyundai Elantras identical to the one I have been having that created the risk of a crash, however my VIN number was not included in the recall. The recall information on the internet states with regard to the cause of the problem: ". . . Stalling could occur if the maf (mass air flow) sensor electrical signal is interrupted as a result of engine vibration transmitted to the maf sensor connector wiring harness. " I have been told that in such cases where the same problem is a serious issue and some VIN numbers were not included in the recall, that they are often then added to the VIN numbers in the recall. I would appreciate your consideration of including my VIN in this recall based on the foregoing. My VIN is kmhjf35f6yu891722 the site I went to on the internet under service - recalls gave a campaign number of 00v259001 and listed the faulty components electrical system: wiring, and the potential consequence " this condition can cause the engine to stall, increasing risk of a crash. " and the corrective action " dealers will re-route the maf sensor connector wiring harness. ".

Engine is stalling out intermittently while driving or while standing still. Vehicle been in dealer shop on two occasions, and unable to duplicate problem. Feel free to provide any further information on this matter.

Recall 00v259001 repairs were performed on November 15th, 2000. However, in March of 2001, engine started stalling during normal operation while traveling at any speed. Dealership has examined vehicle six times, and has been unable to effectively remedy problem. Also, during colder weather engine would surge and cause rpms reading to dramatically increase when shifting into second gear. Please provide any additional information / attachments.
