Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR, DASHBOARD LIGHTS START FLICKERING, GAUGES START BOUNCING. SOMETIMES THIS IS ALL THAT HAPPENS, OTHER TIMES IT'S AS IF THE CAR STALLS AS I HAVE NO ACCELERATION. A COUPLE OF TIMES, THE ENGINE HAS SHUT ITSELF OFF. IN RESEARCHING THIS ONLINE, I FIND DOZENS AND DOZENS OF INSTANCES OF THIS SAME THING HAPPENING WITH PT CRUISERS. *TR
