Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70MPH WHEN MY CAR SEEMED TO JUST COMPLETELY LOSE POWER. I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN IT OFF AND RESTART IT. THE INCIDENT HAPPENED EXACTLY THE SAME A COUPLE OTHER TIMES. ALSO HAPPEN ONCE WHEN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY. I WAS AT A BUSY INTERSECTION AND THE CAR LOST POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. I WAS NOT ABLE TO GO ANYWHERE UNTIL I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT. I WAS NEARLY T-BONED AT 5 MONTHS PREGNANT. DEALER WAS HAVING A HARD TIME FIGURING OUT WHAT WAS WRONG BUT FINALLY FIGURED OUT THAT IT WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE DRIVE TRAIN WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO STALL. *TR
