Consumer Description

DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE AND OIL WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED. THE CAR COMPLETELY DIED WHILE I WAS ON THE ROAD. THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES FROZE UP AND THE SPEED DECREASED TO BARELY NOTHING. I COULD GET THE CAR TO JUST MAKE IT OFF THE ROAD SAFELY BECAUSE I COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL OR USE THE BRAKES WELL. THOUGHT IT WAS MY OIL SO I WAS ABLE TO GET SOMEONE TO ADD OIL TO IT WHILE ON SIDE OF BUSY ROAD. STARTED CAR UP FINE AND DROVE FOR 5 MORE DAYS UNTIL IT HAPPENED AGAIN. GOT IT TOWED TO MECHANIC WHO CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP. OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AROUSE WHILE MECHANIC HAD IT SO BROUGHT TO VOLVO WHO SAYS I NEED A NEW CONTROL ELECTRIC MODULE IN MY CAR. *TR
