my engine keeps stalling!!!

Im am driving down the highway and me engine just stops. All of my gauges are on, just my engine stalls out or something. It has happened three times now and the dealer said it was carbon biuldup in the gas. That doesn't sound right. I have changed to chevron for a month and it did it again, then I went to exxon still did it??? I thought it might have been my alarm since I did it myself and a wire came loose but that isnt it. Anyone else had this prob??

Run a search on stalling. Back then when I still had my car I posted a thread about this and it has plenty of reply from other members.

you're not the only one. like the other guy said, run a search, you'll find number of complaints of our cars stalling all the time. So far, no one found exactly why some of cars are stalling.
And whatever your dealer told you, it's all bs
