I have been very lucky and not killed in an accident, my engine stalls due to fuel starvation. Investigation PE02066, I have had tune up new spark plugs, new throttle control sensor, and another sensor, fuel injectors, throttle body and still the truck does the stalling out. I feel that is a problem with the truck, and a real safety hazard. This is a daily occurrence.

1)motor mount broke. 2) day after purchasing used vehicle for dealership, truck was in gear and top speed was about 15mph for about 50 foot. Engine would die then have a hard time starting. Happened for 30 miles. After that, after running engine for more than 1 1/2 hour, the truck would die. I have to pull over and let it sit for a few seconds before it will start again. Happens numerous times.

The fuel tank leaked gas, and has been replaced twice, but the problem recurred. This is dangerous because the vehicle can catch on fire. Manufacturer has been contacted by consumer.
