Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, ALL OF SUDDEN THE CAR JUST STOPS WITH THE DASH BOARD DISPLAYING EVERYTHING. WHEN TRY TO RESTART THE CAR, IT SOUNDS LIKE THE CAR IS TRYING TO START EVEN AFTER RELEASING THE KEY BUT IT DOESN'T START. ALL POWER IS LOST EXCEPT FOR THE LIGHTS AND RADIO. THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY START AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND YOU START DRIVING AND IT HAPPENS AGAIN. HAD CAR TOWED TO AUTO REPAIR PLACE WHERE DIAGNOSTICS DIDN'T SHOW ANYTHING. THE MECHANIC DID DRIVE THE CAR AND IT STALLED ON HIM. HE THOUGHT IT WAS THE "FUEL KILL SWITCH" BECAUSE IT RESET IT AND THE CAR STARTED. THE SWITCH WAS REPLACED AND THE CAR RAN FINE FOR 2 DAYS THEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY STARTED LOOSING SPEED AND WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE RPM'S DECREASED THEN JUMPED UP LIKE THE CAR HAD RESTARTED. THIS HAPPENED TWICE THEN I LOST ALL POWER AND HAD TO COAST OVER TO THE SHOULDER. *TR
