If you own a 2004-2005 Toyota Prius and have experienced unexplained stall outs (http://www.hawaiithreads.com/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=68) of the engine while you're driving, you need to report your problem to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(www.NHTSA.gov). They are investigating reports of the cars stalling, sometimes when people were driving at high speeds. If evidence can be found of a manufacturing defect, a recall will be issued.

Was that "unexplained stall outs" link supposed to point somewhere meaningful? It just opens up a new HawaiiThreads message window. :confused:
