This is the third time vehicle has stalled while driving at approx. 35-40 mph since purchase last fall; previously reported problem last fall (ODI id: 754924); problem was thought to be fixed with resetting of idle and throttle settings late last year; while it has been a while since the problem last occurred, apparently the problem has not been fixed.

While driving on a curvy road at around 40 mph my Tribute suddenly stalled and lost all power steering and power brakes. This resulted in a hard stop in the oncoming lane, which was fortunately not occupied by an oncoming car. The car restarted immediately with no hesistation and I travelled home 5 miles with no further incident. I am now afraid to drive my car as I live on top of a mountain and must drive curvy roads to work. The dealership has been closed this weekend and I will contact them immediately Monday morning.
