TL stalling during drives
My 99 TL recently came back from the shop for repairs relating to the engine surging for no apparent reason in neutral gear and gas pedal stuck when in drive mode.
Everything was kosher on the car until the last 2 weeks when the car would stall unexpectedly from a warm up to driving on the road. So far I've been very fortunate that this incident has happened during off rush-traffic hours.
When the car stalls on the road, I could be at a stop light or going 50+ miles on a boulevard or street. Luckily my reflexes have been fast in getting the car started again.
I don't even know if its worth it anymore to put in more money to a seriously flawed car put out by Acura. Anyone else here had the stalling problem on their TL?

the car has few problems overall,, maintenance is important
99s had the most probs but 4 speed trans were best
