Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE, MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED, AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. I HAD TO PULL OFF OF THE ROAD QUICKLY TO AVOID BEING HIT IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A BAD COIL PACK. IF A BAD COIL PACK DISABLES YOUR VEHICLE, THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE COIL PACKS CAN GO BAD ANY TIME. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY INSTEAD, I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUSLY ACCIDENT OR EVEN KILLED. *TR
