1999 Toyota 4RUNNER fuel system problems

Engine stalls while vehicle in operation. Stalling occurs during deceleration (e.g. Approaching a toll booth) and acceleration (e.g. Accelerating after making a full stop). Failures are sporadic and random (3x/month). Dealer claims to have 4 to 5 vehicles (same make and model) with same problem. Dealer claims inability to fix problem until special technical team arrives from manufacturer.

I have a 1999 toyota 4-runner and the fuel gauge has stopped working. It began by showing a quantity of fuel when it really did not have any fuel. This caused me to run out of fuel and almost have a major accident. It now may read full, zero, 1/2 etc. You cannot depend on the accuracy. I contacted dealer who told me they knew it was a toyota defect but that the vehicle was out of warranty and they would do nothing about it but tell me to bring it in and they would fix it for between $500 - $1000!!!
