2 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 09/25/2011

While driving on a highway at 65mph, the vehicle suddenly lost all power. I managed to steer car off to side of road, narrowly avoiding accident. The car did restart, but this stalling and power shut off reoccurred once more. Dealership (dunning Toyota, ann arbor, mi) examined car; test drove it; and said nothing was wrong. I indicated that there was a real problem and safety concern. After my prodding, they admintted that there was, in fact, a voluntary recall, but the needed parts were unavailable. It is one thing to postpone treating a car for a voluntary recall when that car has not experienced the problem. My car, however, has had this problem and I feel the manufacturer should find the needed part to repair the car to ensure its safety. I asked to have the service manager call me back but I have not yet received that call.
