Consumer Description

AS I WAS APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT OF AN INTERSECTION, THE CAR LOST ALL POWER AND I COULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL. WHEN THE CAR DID LOSE POWER, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON IMMEDIATELY BUT NO OTHER LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED EXCEPT FOR THE WRENCH LIGHT. I WAS BASICALLY STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION TRYING TO COAST ALONE TO THE OTHER SIDE. THE CAR WAS FINALLY ABLE TO COAST TO THE OTHER SIDE AT NO MORE THAN 1 MPH AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A SHOPPING CENTER PARKING LOT. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT THERE MOMENTARILY. I THEN TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR AND IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR THE ENGINE TO TURN OVER AND START. HOWEVER, IT FINALLY DID. THE WRENCH LIGHT WAS NOT ILLUMINATED WHEN THE CAR DID START. I WAS FORTUNATELY ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK HOME. THE CAR WILL BE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION AND TESTING. *TR
