Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a 2001 toyota tundra. it has just about 59,000 miles. when i use the brake to slow down or stop, the truck will stall in traffic. i will have to restart the truck and it will stall. i will try to start it again and i have to gun the engine and hold the brake pedal so as not to crash into something, and hope the truck will move. if i go about 300 feet and apply the brake again, it may stall. i have had it to the dealer 3 separate times for this and each time they tell me it is 'gunk' that needs to be cleaned, or a sticky throttle. problem started in march 2005, again in july 2005 and now in nov. the service performed is clean carbon build up in throttle body. perform fuel induction. i am fearful that the truck will stall and i will be in an accident. *nm
