Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ESC LIGHT COMES ON AND IT'S LIKE THE GAS IS SHUT OFF BUT DOESN'T DIE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST 9 MONTHS AND IT REALLY HASN'T BEEN AN ISSUE BECAUSE NORMALLY YOU CAN SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON AND IT'S FINE BUT THE OTHER DAY I WAS ON A MAJOR HWY IN THE MIDDLE LANE AND IT SHUT DOWN. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE STALLED IN THE MIDDLE LANE CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. *TR
