Consumer Description

THE CEL WAS HAS BEEN ON CONTINUALLY FOR THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS. AT FIRST THE BATTERY WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTED AND THEN A FEW MINUTES LATER WENT OFF AND THEN BACK ON. THIS WAS FOLLOWED VERY SHORTLY BY THE ABS, BRAKE, AIRBAG INDICATORS ALL GOING OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY. WIPERS STARTED TO WORK INTERMITTENTLY. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR WAS IN A WRONG GEAR AND THE ENGINE STARTED REVVING TOO HIGH - THE SPEEDOMETER WAS GOING FROM ABOUT 50 TO ZERO INTERMITTENTLY. I WAS GOING TO TRY TO MAKE IT HOME (ABOUT 3.5 MILES), BUT WAS ONLY ABLE TO GET IT INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT SAFELY. IT WAS VERY HARD TO HANDLE - I AM JUST FORTUNATE THAT THE PARKING LOT WAS NEARBY. THE LACK OF HANDLING COULD HAVE CAUSED A WRECK AS I WAS ON A FOUR-LANE UNDIVIDED HIGHWAY. THESE PROBLEMS ARE DUE TO A FAULTY TIPM - OF WHICH HAS COST ME $810 TO REPAIR. *TR
