Consumer Description

WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME MY CAR WOULD SURGE THEN LOSE POWER. I PRESSED THE ONSTAR BUTTON AND A VEHICLE TEST WAS CONDUCTED. I WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED ATTENTION. ALSO, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING AND I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. I WAS ON A RURAL ROAD SO NO ONE ELSE WAS AFFECTED. HAD I BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE THIS COULD HAVE AFFECTED OTHERS AND MYSELF IN A NEGATIVE WAY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN AND JESSUP AUTO IN CATHERDRAL CITY, CA KEPT IT SEVERAL DAYS AND CORRECTED THE ISSUE. THE MAIN ISSUE IS LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING. *TR
