MY SON WAS ENTERING THE HIGHWAY FROM AN ON-RAMP, ACCELERATING TO THE SPEED OF TRAFFIC. THE HOOD LATCH ON THE VEHICLE FAILED AND THE HOOD POPPED OPEN SUDDENLY. IT SWUNG BACK AND HIT THE WINDSHIELD, CRACKING THE WINDSHIELD IN SEVERAL PLACES. IT ALSO PULLED THE DRIVER'S SIDE FENDER BACK INTO THE SWING ZONE OF THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR AND PREVENTS THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR FROM OPENING. THE HOOD HAS A DENT ACROSS THE WIDTH OF IT AND WILL NOT CLOSE. HE PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES.*AK

Fuel System, Gasoline
CAR STALLS WHEN YOU COME TO A STOP AFTER DRIVING CONTINOUSLY FOR 30 OR MORE MIN. & IF YOU START IT BACK UP ENGINE WILL RUN IN NUTURAL, BUT STALL WHEN SHIFTED TO DRIVE. SO TO GO HAVE TO STICK IN DRIVE & GUN THE ENGINE & WILL USALLY STOP STALLING AFTER THE NEXT TIME I STOP. TAKEN IT TO 3 MECHANICS OVER LAST 2 YRS. & NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE IT IS A ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. WHEN IT STALLS ENGINE WILL RUN IN NUTURAL, PARK & REVERSE. *AK
