Since October 2001, my Eclipse has been stalling without warning. Both the ``check engine'' and ``oil'' lights illuminate and I lose control of the vehicle as it slows to a stop. This has happened to me while driving 65 mph on the freeway. Each time, I've nearly been rear-ended. Several mechanics have run diagnostic checks on my car. But the problem has never been detected. Meanwhile, my car continues to cut out when least expected and regardless of speed. I wish this problem could be diagnosed as I see from other complaints that I'm not the only one driving a death trap.

The car repeatedly shuts off or stalls while driving at any speed. I have taken it in numerous times and the problem cannot be found. The fuel pump relay, engine control unit, ignition wires, spark plug wires have all been replaced. The throttle plates have been cleaned out. It is again in the repair shop.

Problem has been on going for 2.5 months. Dealer has had car for over a month and has been unable to diagnos or cure the problem. I've spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars on fixes that they have recommended. None have worked and their corporate has not given me any support in this matter. When the failure occurs the car's engine shuts off with no warning. Power steering and brakes go out rendering the vehicle a hazard to myself and all other drivers around my on busy hwys. If there is any assistance that your organization can provide me I would greatly appreciate it! tks for your time and consideration.
