Consumer Description

DT: WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 76 MPH THE VEHICLE WAS STALLED, AND THE ENGINE CUT OFF. THE OWNER HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART IT. VEHICLE STARTED BACK UP, AND DIED TWICE AFTER THAT WITHIN 40 MILES. THE OWNER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE OWNER CALLED ONSTAR AND THEY DIDN'T SEE A PROBLEM. THE OWNER STATED VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WHEN THE ENGINE CUT OFF. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM.
