Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: No out of the ordinary events lead up to the failure. my vehicle, which is a daily driver car would once in a while "stumble" then throw a check engine light. after this i would go to my dealer or an autoshop and have the "pull the code" using a odb ii error scan tool. everything it was the same "code" named p0300. this would happen infrequently (5-6 times a month) but eventually it became a occurrence almost by the minute. when the car "stumbles" there is no power to merge, turn or change lanes. my dealer has offered a recall - which is a computer "reflash" - but to no avail - the problem still persists. when i complain i am told there is nothing more they can do. please help. *nm
