Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Vehicle stalls randomly bringing about a failure of all systems sometimes in the middle of crowded and fast freeways. doing research on the problem it seems to be common for this type of vehicle and there seems to be a solution with the throttle body assembly design but aparently the manufacturer has not issued a recall for it and many people go to the dealerships spending thousands of dollars in repairs that do not solve the actual problem. the failure ocurrs randomly while driving under normal conditions. *tr
