Anyone ever get this or know what its about? The car stalled today twice in a row out of no where. Kinda intrigued and very curious as to what in the world happened. Any clues?

you can also get that message from a battery that is weak and from a resistor pellet on your key that is dirty.

Charge the battery, clean the pellet with isopropyl alcohol.

Stalling twice in a row is not a CLB issue if the car is otherwise running and drivable.

Have you checked your codes?
Pull them and post.

Too busy trying to overprice your car to read the other postings here I guess. How does a Senior member here not know about the "Pull Key wait 10 sec" message? With the fuel guage and oil pressure sensor and column lock, it gets asked at LEAST 3-4 times a WEEK.
