Car stalled 3x times today WTF?!? >: (
It first happened when i was driving down a little alley and i went over what looked like an empty gallon bottle...I went over it, heard it slide under the car then saw it in my rearview...all of sudden the car dies....Okay? So i start it up again and it seemed like it was misfiring but it finally engaged and it started up...5 seconds later i come to the stop sign...dies again!! WTF!! So i did the same thing, tried to start it up and again it seemed like something was misfiring cuz it didnt start up smoothly...
At this point i am furious...so im on my way home because i wanted to do a write on this to see if can get some feedback from you guys. My lady wanted to make a stop at the pet store so i parked my car on a hill facing downward. I do what i gotta do then I get back into my car and start it up with no problem...get to the bottom of the hill and im at the stop sign, and....it dies again...
I made an appointment a few days ago to my service dept. so i will most certainly bring it up to them but does anyone here know what this could be?
I bought the car used from the dealer and i think im still covered under their 3 month warranty. What should i tell them to look into?
I appreciate the feedback.

Reminds me of the lady next to me getting her car serviced at the dealer...
...once she was given the usual disclaimer that any repairs/work found to be outside the warranty coverage would be charged a 1hr diagnostic fee, she declined to have the CELs checked on her car.
