Consumer Description

MY FAMILY AND I WERE TRAVELING FROM NEWARK, NJ FROM THE JULY 4TH HOLIDAY BACK HOME TO RALEIGH NC ON 95 SOUTH IN VIRGINIA AND GOING AT A SPEED OF 72MPH APPROX. AND THE CAR/ENGINE JUST TURNED OFF AT THAT RATE OF SPEED WITH 2 CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER WE SAT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR ABOUT 45MIN THE VEHICLE PROCEEDED TO START AND WE MADE IT HOME TO NC. THE FOLLOWING BUSINESS DAY AFTER THE HOLIDAY I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC GIAO AUTO LOCATED ON CAPITAL BLVD IN RALEIGH NC AND HE COULD NOT DETERMINE WHY THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF THE WAY IT DID. SO I CONTINUED TO DRIVE JUST WITH PRECAUTION. I RECEIVED A LETTER ON 8/21/2014 REGARDING THE RECALL AND WAS LIVID BECAUSE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE! I BELIEVE THAT THIS MAY HAPPEN TO MY FAMILY AGAIN AND DO NOT WANT TO RISK THIS, SO I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE TO ENSURE THAT MY CHILDREN HAVE A SAFE VEHICLE. *TR
