Asked by GuruDGL1P Jun 15, 2018 at 07:31 PM about the 2007 Saturn ION 2 Quad Coupe

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Car intermittently stalls in 1st gear (manual transmission).  I've had throttle control replaced as well as the computer.  After replacing the computer it stalled 2 more times than ran for approximately 2000 miles.   Today  I started the car and pulled out into the street and it wasn’t until I had gone several hundred feet that the alarm came in. always the same.  I drove across town with the problem.  Parked for 15 min and when I restarted, the alarm was gone and it ran fine.  It has done this many times.

I wish I could tell you the problem is solved and exactly what was done. The intermittent stalling problem returned and I took it back to the same shop with no current alarm nor history. The mechanic said he got the alarm to come in while he was checking some wiring and fixed whatever that was. I don't know any more than that. The car has run well since, but it has done that before. I'm going to hope it was fixed. Wiring problem.
