Car restarts but continues stalling if pressure is not maintained on gas peddle. Can be driven this way but will stall again if gas peddle is released. Problem starts to go away by itself after about 15 minutes driving or 30 minutes parked. Brought to dealer service several times. They couldn't find/verify problem so they couldn't fix it. Tuneups didn't help. High octane gas did not solve problem.”
