My car stalled in traffic without warning or prior occurance. Would not re-start. After 6-8 dangerous minutes stopped in the middle of the road, the car started and i pulled over to the side. Problem was diagnosed as a faulty ignition module and was repaired.a short time prior to this incident, i was traveling 65 mph on the highway. I shudder to think of the consequences of a sudden power failure and stalled car in the midst of fast-moving traffic. While i realize that 12-year-old parts will fail due to age, i wonder if a back-up power source could not be made available at least to be able to bring the car safely to the side of the road. Or is the possibility of stalling just a presumed and accepted hazard of driving?

We were backing out of our driveway on saturday, july 21st.when i braked to shift to drive the car made a thunk and jumped.the engine was still running and i had no steering.my wife and i got out of the car and looked to see the engine and surrounding components tilted back to the ground.apparently, the rear engine mounts rusted through causing the components to fall.we called a local repair shop to tow the car and the owner said that he may have remembered seeing a recall on these cars and that he would check on monday.he said that there was a recall on some fords for the same problem.one on the neighbors mentioned seeing a speciial on 60 minutes regarding this problem with this make and model of car. Today the auto repair shop called and said that he called gm and there was not a recall for our car for that particular year.i drive this car on a busy highway back and forth to to work.this could have been a very serious accident had it happened the night before driving home at 65 mph in heavy traffic.a nine year old carshould not lose it engine and steering.i am wondering if this is a problem with other years and makes (i.e. Pontiiac grand prix) why they would not recall all as this is a very serious safety issue.please contact me with any further questions.

On level ground, from cold start, column mounted shift lever exhibited resistance from <park> to <reverse>.when in reverse, automatic transaxle did not engage reverse gears.when in neutral, transaxle appeared to be in drive gear, though as precaution, only simple usage of 1st gear was tested for troubleshooting.all drive gears operate normally, though with slight slippage.fluid is good color and smell, middle of hash marks while idling after 20 min run.no proper reverse exists, though if engine is turned off with gear selector in <reverse> the car may be rolled as though in neutral.limited understanding of underlying mechanics of transaxle, though believe that this is how the mehcanism should work.car has been run at highway speeds for 20+ min and with new alternator added previous day, has more torque than ever (old alternator was original).reverse was engaged numerous times since alternator change though no adverse consequence could seem to be possibly related, this is able to at least be asserted.thank you for your assistance.dave coleman
