Consumer Description

SOMETIMES WHEN I DRIVE THE ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT STALLS OUT AND MY RPM'S DON'T MOVE, ALL THE BOXES AROUND PRND LIGHT UP AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK OR SOMETIMES I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF. ONCE THIS IS DONE THE CAR CONTINUES TO DRIVE LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL STAY ON FOR A DAY. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH IS VERY SCARY TO JUST DROP SPEED DOWN TO 40. I HAVE READ MANY BLOGS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES.
