Consumer Description

I WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT IN A TRAFFIC JAM. WORRIED THAT I WOULD RUN OUT ELECTRICITY, I SHUT OFF THE CAR. WHEN I TRIED TO PROCEED, THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE, AND A WARNING OF "SAFELY STOP NOW" ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH. I TRIED "RESTARTING" THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES. THE CAR WOULD SEEM TO "START," BUT WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD -- AS IF THE GEAR WOULD NOT ENGAGE. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES, AND WITH A POLICEMAN LEANING INTO THE WINDOW BARKING SUGGESTIONS, THE CAR STARTED AND PROCEEDED. PERHAPS, WHEN I STOPPED TRYING TO START THE CAR, THE CAR WHOLLY POWERED-OFF. ESSENTIALLY "POWER CYCLING" THE CAR. *TR
