Consumer Description
2006 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX: VEHICLE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING REGARDLESS OF THE SPEED YOU ARE GOING EXAMPLE: 10-65MPH, STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP SO YOU CAN'T PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO AVOID CRASH. A MONTH OR SO BEFORE ENGINE STARTED SHUTTING OFF MY AIRBAG LIGHT AN TONE WAS APPEARING AND ALARMING... I'VE ALMOST BEEN CRASHED INTO 4 TIMES BY SEMI'S AN SCHOOL BUSES. THIS IS VERY SERIOUS AN DANGEROUS IT ALMOST CAUSED MY LIFE AN I AM 7 MONTHS PREGNANT WITH A 6 YEAR OLD WHO HAS ALSO BEEN IN THE CAR WITH ME. I HOPE THIS GETS RESOLVED I WASN'T WARNED OF ANY RECALL GOOD THING I STARTED GOOGLING AN FOUND OUT THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON MY IGNITION/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. *TR
