Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH WHEN I FELT MY STEERING WHEEL GO STIFF AND MY RPM GAUGE DROPPED. I TRIED PULLING OVER BUT HAD PROBLEMS TURNING THE WHEEL. THAT IS WHEN I REALIZED MY ENCLAVE HAD COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND HIT THE BRAKES TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP WHERE I THEN RESTARTED IT. THAT WAS 2 DAYS AGO. TODAY I WENT TO START IT FOR WORK AND FOR THE 3RD TIME IN 2 MONTHS IT WOULD NOT START. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE BATTERY AS WELL AS THE CONNECTIONS CHECKED WITH NO WRONG FINDINGS. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR 4 MONTHS! I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THERE IS A 'SERVICE BULLETIN' POSTED IN THEIR REPAIR SHOP BECAUSE "MANY PEOPLE" WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM BUT IT WAS NOT A RECALL. *TR
