 It has been 4 times already (since august 2002) that my car's engine has stalled while driving. in all instances the engine starts back up again. i notice right away because i loose the power steering. first time [august 2, 2002]: the first day i bought the car (brand new) i was at a red light and the car turned off. second time: this was like several months after. i was driving on the highway and the engine turned off. third time [june 7, 2005]: i left my car at the dealer for an oil change. the dealer took my car for a test drive and the engine stalled on him. i told them that i has happened to me 2 times previously. they replaced the starter switch for that reason. fourth time [july 16, 2005:] i was driving uphill on a zone with tight curves and the car stalled again. this time i almost had an accident cause the turns were tight and i had no power steering. *jb

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL - ACCELERATOR PEDAL

 I was driving my car yesterday august 4th, 2005 and all of a sudden the accelerator would not work. i was in the middle of an intersection and had to coast the car to the shoulder of the road. very scary with a 1 month old infant in my back seat and a very busy intersection. i took the car to the volvo dealer of pleasanton yesterday who said he would have to replace the accelerator pedal assembly. the same thing happened once before about 2 months ago in walnut creek on a side street. after i coasted to the side of the road, i restarted the car without a problem. *jb
