Consumer Description

I WAS PASSING ON A TWO LANE HIGH WAY AT AN ACCELERATED SPEED AT WHICH TIME THE ENGINE DIES, NO LIGHTS NO NOTHING TOTAL ENGINE FAILURE. LUCKILY I HAVE ENOUGH MOMENTUM THAT I SAFELY GET AROUND THE SEMI AND CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO COAST UNTIL I FIND A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER. I CALL MY LOCAL DEALER WHO WILL NOT COME TOW ME AS I AM APPROXIMATELY 50 MILES FROM HOME ALTHOUGH I DO HAVE GM ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. I TURN OFF THE IGNITION AND IT DOES RESTART SO I MANAGE TO DRIVE TO A NEARBY DEALERSHIP AND LEAVE IT THERE. NOTHING SHOWS UP ON THE COMPUTER I REFUSE TO TAKE IT HOME. SHOULD THEY NOT BE ABLE TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM I WILL HOLD THE DEALERSHIP AND GENERAL MOTORS 100% RESPONSIBLE. THANK GOD MY DAUGHTER AND I ARE SAFE BUT THIS IS A TRAGEDY WAITING TO HAPPEN IF NOT RESOLVED. *TR
