Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AT APPROX 40 MPH MY 2002 OLDS BRAVADA COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. THE MOTOR QUIT AND I LOST ALL POWER AND ELECTRICAL. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CONTINUED TO ATTEMPT TO RESTART THE ENGINE FOR APPROX 35 MINUTES. AFTER THIS 35 MIN THE ENGINE DID START AND I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR THE NEXT MORNING AND WAS TOLD THE PCM HAD SHORTED OUT AND IT WAS REPLACED AND REPROGRAMMED. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT HAD I BEEN TRAVELING ON A BUSY STREET. TS
