Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This car has been stalling intermitantly. it has happened on most ocassions when making a slow turn (like from a stand still and turning at a light). it has had a tune up and still continues to do this. it has been to the dealers for about 2 weeks and they can find nothing wrong or recreate the problem. in my search on the net i have found numerous 1998 sunfire owners with the same problem. when the engine stalls the power stearing is affected and the car is dangerous. my daughter has this car in ga while attending college and has had to rent a car for the past 2 weeks. i hope this can be resolived soon. dt
