Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Engine stalls when driving at highway speed for about 45-60 minutes. loses power and after coming to a complete stop will not immediatley restart , or if it restarts runs rough with only enough power to get to a safe place to stop. this problem has occurred intermittently since we owned the car. ford dealers in puerto rico have investigated the problem without success. on one occasion the dealer replaced the cooling fan, believing the problem was cooling related. it still did not fix the problem. the local ford service manager only offers to drive the car to see if the problem reoccurs. the problem with this is it is such an intermittent problem there is little chance stalling will happen unless the car is driven at highway speed for nearly an hour. *ak
