“This is a continual problem since I took ownership in march 2000. It started w/ the service engine soon light occasionally turning on. After having the vehicle looked at - they could find no problem. As time passed, the light came on more & more frequently. The engine then began to idle high and would go into a super idle where I would have to nearly stand on the brake pedal to stop the forward motion at a stop. Ow the service engine soon light is coming on constantly and the vehicle stalls constantly. I drive a total of 10 miles to work & this vehicle will now stall a min. Of 5x each way. …”
