Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH AND COMPLETELY OUT OF THE BLUE THE CAR SHUT OFF AND CARS WERE HONKING AND I HAD TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I SAT THERE AND WAITED TO MAKE SURE THE CAR WAS NOT OVERHEATING OR ANYTHING ELSE BUT NO LIGHTS HAD COME ON OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING. I THEN STARTED THE CAR BACK UP AND IT RAN FINE BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT HAD COME ON. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO GET FIXED AND THEY SAID IT WAS A LOOSE AIR FILTER BOX. I FIXED THIS AND DID NOT HAVE THE PROBLEM FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND THEN THE OTHER DAY DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 50 MPH THE CAR SHUTOFF. ITS VERY SCARY FOR A CAR TO SUDDENLY SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING WHATSOEVER AND I'M SO AFRAID I WILL GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I JUST HAD A RECALL DONE TO THE CAR AND THEY THOUGHT IT WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT BUT IT IS STILL DOING IT. I JUST PAID THIS CAR OFF AND REALLY I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT NOW. *TR
