Consumer Description

MY CAR HAS BEEN STALLING OUT AS IT GETS TO LOWER SPEEDS AND SHIFTING VERY HARD. THERE IS A CLICKING IN THE DASH SOMEWHERE AND THE SPEED ODOMETER WAS FLUCTUATING. IT HESITATES AND TRIES TO SHUT OFF AT EVERY STOP. LOOSING POWER AND SPEED EVEN DOWN HILL. THE POWER STEERING READING HAS BEEN COMING ON. AND THE DISPLAY FOR GAS MILEAGE WILL NOW GO TO ALL LINES NO NUMBERS. I AM STARTING TO BE AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR. THAT ITS GOING TO GET ME REAR ENDED WHEN I AM TURNING AND IT SHUTS OFF. I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN. I WENT SO FAR AS TO THIS MORNING RECORDING THE DASH AS IT WAS ACTING UP SO I CAN SHOW MY HUSBAND. *TR
