    2006 toyota corolla shuts off and also sometimes rpm drops really low. It happened more than once. I finally took it to toyota on 11/30/09 and they replaced throttle body assembly.

This engine stall could have resulted in a very serious crash because the car quickly lost speed in fast-moving traffic, and the steering became hard to turn. This incident happened…
