I bought this car used, after a really good test-drive. I took it to my own mechanic after it started stalling two days after I bought it, and they told me that the computer's codes were either erased, or the computer itself was no good, therefore they couldn't tell me what was wrong with it.
I took it back to the dealership, whose nice-guy attitude had disappeared. They refused to fix it, and blamed the dead computer on my mechanic.
The car stopped stalling out a few days later, and I figure it was just bad gas. Now, a month after I bought it, The car is driving badly and stalling again.
When I accelerate, it feels like that car is about to stall, sort of jerking- like I'm lifting my foot off and pressing it down again- all while I'm traveling down the road.
My question is this- What is causing this and is it worth fixing even though the car's computer is dead?
