Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING 35-40 MPH WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING AT THE TIME AND I KEPT PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR CONTINUED TO SLOW. BEFORE THE CAR STOPPED, I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PLACED THE CAR IN PARK, TURNED IT OFF, AND OPENED MY CAR DOOR. THEN I TURNED MY CAR ON AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO THE PLACE I WAS GOING IN ABOUT 7 MIN. I STAYED AT THAT PLACE FOR AROUND 30 MIN AND THEN GOT IN MY CAR AGAIN WHERE 2 MIN AFTER I STARTED DRIVING, THE CAR STALLED AGAIN. I PULLED OVER, TURNED THE CAR OFF, AND OPENED THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THEN I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND PRECEDED TO DRIVE HOME (ABOUT A TEN MINUTE CAR RIDE).
