i don't think it's a problem on the latter models already... but it wont hurt to check with your dealer. based on what you encountered though it's probably not the TDC sensor as a problematic TDC sensor would see your engine shutting down even if you try to rev it up... if you have some divebombing idle (as what you may have encountered), try to have your throttle body cleaned. It's common for that to happen on EFI cars as the mileage racks up.
