Consumer Description

I HAD JUST FILLED THE TANK OF MY 2006 DODGE MAGNUM AND DROVE ABOUT 20 MILES INTO TOWN. AFTER MAKING A QUICK STOP AT A LOCAL STORE I ONCE AGAIN GOT INTO THE CAR AND BEGAN DRIVING APPROX. 30 MPH. AS I BEGAN TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN ALL POWER WAS LOST TO THE CAR; STEERING BECAME NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE, GAS PEDAL DID NOT WORK AND I BASICALLY WAS DEAD IN THE ROAD. I TURNED THE KEY TO OFF, PLACED THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN RESTARTED THE ENGINE. IT STARTED RIGHT UP, BEGAN TO DRIVE AND AT THE NEXT LIGHT NEEDED TO TAKE ANOTHER LEFT; WITH CARS COMING AT ME FROM THE OTHER DIRECTION I WENT TO TAKE THE LEFT WHEN ONCE AGAIN THE ENTIRE CAR LOST POWER..NO STEERING, NO GAS POWER, CHECK OIL LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS LUCKY THAT THE ONCOMING CARS DID NOT HIT ME AND THAT I HAD ALLOWED ENOUGH SPACE INCASE THE SAME THING OCCURRED OR THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A COLLISION FOR SURE. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW OTHER TIMES WITHOUT ANY REASON BUT WE ARE ALWAYS ABLE TO START IT BACK UP AND THEN IT MAY OR MAY NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. BEEN TOLD IT IS THE "ROLL OVER VALVE" FAILING $2 GRAND TO FIX!!!!! *TR
