ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING 10-40 MPH ON SEVEN OCCASIONS. THERE WAS NO WARNING PRIOR TO THE STALLING AND THE VEHICLE RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY AFTER EACH INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY A SERVICE DEALER TWICE. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALERSHIP FLUSHED OUT THE AIR CONDITIONER IN AN ATTEMPT TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM, BUT THE REMEDY OFFERED WAS INEFFECTIVE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM OR OFFER ANY OTHER REMEDIES WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED A SECOND TIME FOR INSPECTION.
