Certified previously owned vehicle stalled due to butterfly valve within throttle body not opening fast enough when going around a corner and too much load on the engine. Example: exited freeway and was turning left while braking due to upcoming red light. The engine stalled in the middle of an intersection while the vehicle was in motion at approximately 10 mph. Lost steering and braking power. The problem was first noticed when making right turns and having to suddenly brake for a pedestrian, bicyclist, or other traffic hazard and the engine stalling or fluttering at much lower speeds. As it worsened over the course of a week it was ultimately the worst with the mid-intersection stall. At this point we were afraid to drive the vehicle for fear of crashing. Vehicle was purchased from a dealer as certified pre-owned 68,735 miles on 05/02/2008 and was taken to dealer for stalling at 76,678 miles on 08/15/2009.

I own a 2004 Volvo S60 2. 5t and recently had problems with the engine stalling in the middle of a busy road. This concerns me because of the high risk of being involved in a major accident. I'm worried this may happen again. Ive contacted my dealer (phillips Volvo 4980 virginia beach boulevard, virginia beach, va 23462) and they informed me I do not have a recall on my vehicle. I am still taking my car to the mechanic to see what the problem may be. I've had a "check engine" light on and off for many months now, the dealership has checked this out and said I have no errors and my car is fine. I am very uncomfortable with this diagnosis.

Engine stalled on numerous occasions.
