ON 4 OCCASIONS TO DATE, THE MOST RECENT OCCURRING ON 12/21/13, THE ENGINE STALLS MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER REFUELING. ALL OCCASIONS OCCURRED AT IDLE. SAFETY HAZARD EXISTS WHILE EXITING VEHICLE ON BUSY ROADS TO PUSH TO SIDE OF THE ROAD. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY
BEGINNING ABOUT APRIL 2007 (I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN JUNE 2004), I BEGAN HAVING A PROBLEM AFTER EVERY REFUELING - THE CAR STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING. IT TAKES 3 OR 4 ATTEMPTS AT RESTART, THEN STARTS, ONLY TO STALL WITHIN 5 MINUTES OR SO OF MORE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES, AND MY CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND IT WILL NOT MISBEHAVE FOR THE DEALER. IT SEEMS THAT IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS BELOW 1/4 TANK AT REFUELING, SO I HAVE AVOIDED PROBLEMS BY FILLING UP BEFORE THAT POINT. HOWEVER, I TESTED IT TODAY, DROVE IT BELOW 1/4 TANK, REFUELED, AND IT DID IT AGAIN. NOTE - I ONLY USE THE APPROPRIATE GRADE GAS AND ONLY CHEVRON - NEVER ANY OTHER BRAND. I NEVER TOP OFF. I HAVE ASKED THE DEALER TO CHECK THE FUEL FILTER, FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM, TO NO AVAIL. THEY INSIST THAT THE "COMPUTER SAYS ITS FINE" THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE THE CAR STALLS WHILE I AM DRIVING, NOT JUST IDLING. *JB
