Consumer Description

WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR IN MAY 2007, MY CAR'S ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING ON THE HIGHWAY. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND IT STARTED UP AND DIDN'T HAVE THE PROBLEM AGAIN. I DID REPORT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP DURING MY SECOND OIL CHANGE. THEY SAID THAT SINCE IT HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN THAT IT SHOULDN'T BE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. NOW, AT ABOUT 95,000 MILES ITS BEEN HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY, ABOUT TWICE A DAY. NO WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER TEST AND NOTHING CAME UP. WE ALSO WENT FOR A TEST DRIVE, BUT IT DID NOT HAPPEN WHEN THE TECHNICIAN WAS WITH ME. I FEEL THAT I WILL EVENTUALLY GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. OUR FAMILY RELIES ON THIS CAR AND I AM WORRIED THAT SOMETHING HORRIBLE COULD HAPPEN. I HAVE VISITED DIFFERENT FORUMS AND OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A DEFECT DUE TO THE FACT THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO SEEN COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM. I DON'T HAVE A CHOICE BUT TO USE THIS CAR, BUT ALSO FEEL THAT IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. *TR
