Consumer Description

GAS MOTOR STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH. ELECTRIC MOTOR CONTINUED TO OPERATE UNTIL THE BATTERY WAS DEPLETED, ABOUT 1 OR 2 MILES. I WAS UNABLE TO PULL THE CAR OVER BECAUSE I WAS IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE. IT WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN THE CAR OFF, BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF A KEY, BUT ONCE I DID RESTART IT, IT WORKED FINE.
