Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN SUDDENLY MY VEHICLE LOST POWER. I ATTEMPTED TO PRESS THE ACCELERATOR BUT THE CAR JUST JERKED VIOLENTLY. I WAS FORCED TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. I WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED 3 TIMES DO TO THE SPEED OF TRAFFIC AND MY CAR SUDDENLY LOSING POWER. WHEN THE VEHICLE LOST POWER, A "WRENCH" SYMBOL APPEARED ON THE DASH. I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND SAT FOR A FEW SECONDS AND ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE. ONCE STARTED I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WAS RUNNING FINE SO I DECIDED TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN. AFTER ABOUT 1/2 A MILE, THE CAR STOPPED SUDDENLY AGAIN, THIS TIME I WAS ABLE TO COAST ONTO THE MEDIAN BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING IN THE SLOW LANE. THIS CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL MILES UNTIL I FINALLY PULLED OVER AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK. *TR
