Consumer Description

IMAGINE CRUISING DOWN THE TOLLWAY AT 75 MPH WHEN THE ENTIRE PANEL LIGHTS UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE AND YOU HAVE NO POWER TO THE ENGINE. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OF ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND WAITED. I TRIED TO START THE ENGINE AND NOTHING, NOT A MOAN, NOTHING. IT IS NOT THE BATTERY. IN A TIME FRAME OF ABOUT 15 MINUTES, I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. MY MECHANIC COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THIS UNTIL IT WAS ACTUALLY ACTING UP. IT REPEATED THIS 4 - 5 TIMES OVER A 4 WEEK PERIOD. FINALLY, DIAGNOSED AS THE COMPUTER MODULE CONTROL. THIS IS AN $1100.00 REPAIR. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS? *TR
