AFTER ALMOST EVERY FILL UP VEHICLE STALLS WHEN GOING DOWN ROAD. AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM I FOUND THE VAPOR/LIQUID SEPARATOR VALVE IS DEFECTIVE.

WHY DOES THE MANUFACTURER NOT HAVE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM.

AS I WAS DRIVING IN TOWN THE VEHICLE STARTED RUNNING VERY ROUGH, I PULLED OVER INTO A PARKING LOT AND THEN IT WOULDN'T RUN AT ALL. I HAD IT TOWED TO AN AUTO REPAIR PLACE. THEY REPLACED A SENSOR. THAT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM, SO AFTER A FEW WEEKS THEY FINALLY DIAGNOSED IT AS NEEDING A VALVE JOB. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW IN 2007 AND HAD IT REGULARLY SERVICED.
