Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 60 MPH WHEN MY SCREEN SAID ENGINE POWER DOWN AND IT AUTOMATICALLY REDUCED SPEED AND EVENTUALLY SAID DISABLED ENGINE AND I LOST ALL POWER. I HAD MY CAR TESTED AND IT IS A FAULTY ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. I BELIEVE FOR A 2010 THIS PART SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE BAD AND WHEN MY ENGINE POWERED DOWN AND DISABLED MY ENGINE GOING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND EARLIER COBALT MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM AND PART. *TR
