Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Car has stalled on the highway while traveling approx. 65 mph. the car has been into the white allen jaguar dealership in dayton ohio and they have not been able to isolate the issue. although, i have paid them on each occasion to clean out the throttle body screen. this past wekend i was on i-75 in cincinnati and it stalled nearly causing a serious accident when i had to trail across 4 lanes to reach the side of the road to pull off. i could have been seriously injured or killed. it was a horrendously frightening experience. something must be done by jaguar to correct this problem. it seems to be rather widespread and of serious danger to the owner and others on the highway at the time the car stalls. *ak
