While driving vehicle's heater core failed. As a result vehicle was hesitant to stalling, then the check engine light came on and vehicle started loosing power. There's a recall for the heater core 92V05000 but VIN # is outside the remedy scope, because a different type of heater core was used, per the manufacturer.
