I have a 2006 Pt Cruiser Touring edition. Have had it 1 month in this time period I've had this happen countless times. To begin with the check engine is on. While driving the instrument lights come on briefly followed by a ding. This goes off and on during my drive home usually 45 minutes
WhIle driving it stutters acts like it will shut off, I hit the accelerateroad and it seems fine. While idling it spits and sputters, put it in drive & it's fine.
I had the check engine light read at Autozone, bad sparkplug on cylinder 2, I'll take care of that soon. Car shut off while slowing down near my home, started back no problems.
