Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR TO WORK, I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND THE ENGINE STALLED. I HAD TO PULL OVER TWICE ON THE WAY TO WORK WHILE NAVIGATING INTERSTATE TRAFFIC. MY CAR ENGINE STALLED AND I HAD TO PULL OVER - I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON FRIDAY AND THEY TOOK CARE OF IT REALLY FAST, BUT IT APPEARS THAT THEY HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF IT HAPPENING ALOT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME, AS I HAVE TO TRAVEL INTERSTATE EVERY DAY.. IT IS UNNERVING THAT WHEN DRIVING 55-65 MPH, THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE. THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF AND UPON RESTARTING, RESUMED NORMALLY. JUST A VERY BASIC GOOGLE SEARCH, IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND NEED A RECALL NOTICE. *TR
