Consumer Description

2004 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX ENGINE SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. IMMEDIATE FAILURE OF POWER STEERING (IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE A TURN WHILE DRIVING= SCARY!); ELECTRIC/ ELECTRONIC FAILURE ALSO. THEN, AFTER A COMPLETE STOP, AND KEY OFF IGNITION, THE CAR RESTARTS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENS. THE CAR WHEN TWICE TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND DID NOT FIND ANYTHING. THEY THINK THAT WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE A CAR! THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER, AND VERY DANGEROUS! IF SOMEONE DIES FROM THIS OCCURRENCE, INVESTIGATION WILL NOT CONCLUDED TO THIS PROBLEM, BUT MORE LIKELY TO THE LOST OF CONTROL OF THE DRIVER! IT HAPPENS 3 TIMES TO US ALREADY, AND ONCE WITH A GRAND-PRIX RENTAL. PLEASE CHECK IT.
