Help! When I fill the gas tank, within 60 miles of driving, the engine hesitates then shuts down, while I am driving. Does not do it all the time, has been doing this for more than three months. I've changed gas being used twice. The longest it has gone without doing it is three fillups at a 76 station, one of the "top tier" gases as suggested at www.toptiergas.com. Click and Clack, the column writers in my Sat. paper suggested that web site for owners of Toyotas, Hondas, etc. Dealership has put sensors on the car, filled it up with gas, mechanic has driven it back and forth to his home and to lunch to try to get it to do it with no luck. Has anyone else had this problem and if so how was it solved? A Toyota rep is supposed to be coming to the dealership this next week to offer suggestions to fix it, as I have a file now with Toyota in CA. Am unwilling to drive this car on an interstate until problem is solved.
