Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON A ROAD WITH A 50 MPH LIMIT WHEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I LOST ALL POWER TO THE CAR AND THANKFULLY WAS ABLE TO STEER IT INTO THE DRIVE WAY OF A BUSINESS ON THAT ROAD. THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON MY CAR AT THAT TIME AND THERE STILL ARE NO ENGINE RECALLS ON THIS CAR DESPITE THE OTHER RECALLS WHERE THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED. THE LOCAL DEALER SAID I HAD A BAD SENSOR IN THE ENGINE AND CHARGED ME OVER $400 TO FIX. I AM LUCKY TO HAVE SURVIVED THE INCIDENT AND CHARGING ME WAS WRONG. *JS
