While stopped at a stop sign sign or red light the car starts shaking and stalls. This happened on 3 separate occassions. My mechanic found that I needed a whole new distributor. They found shattered pieces of metal inside and have told me they had never seen anything like this before. The interrmittent stalling is very dangerous because the car will lose power whether or not you are stopped. Please investigate this major problem. I have the defective part for inspection if necessary.
When turning ignition on consumer thinks vehicle is starting, but it is not. Also, when putting car in gear vehicle will roll. Consumer feels this is dangerous.
Electrical arcing beneath hood at rf fender, along wiring harness from abs actuator to fuse block. Wiring insulation etc ignited while vehicle parked causing localised damage.
