Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND DECIDED TO PASS A DIESEL TRUCK TO GET OVER IN TO THE EXITING LANE ON THE RIGHT.... I STARTED TO PASS THE DIESEL AND REALIZED THAT I WOULD NEED TO PASS FASTER TO MAKE THE EXIT... I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL IN HARDER TO ACCELERATE AND AS I WAS PICKING UP SPEED MY CAR JUST LOCKED UP.... IT FELT LIKE THE CAR STALLED..... AND THE CAR WENT OFF.... I HAD TO VERY QUICKLY PULL OUT OF THE LANE AND TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THE CAR WAS NO LONGER OPERATING... I NARROWLY MISSED BEING PLOWED BY THE DIESEL TRUCK... AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE. I TRIED TO RESTART MY CAR BY PUSHING THE BUTTON AND IT WOULDN'T RESTART AN ALL THESE LIGHT WERE LIGHTING UP IN THE CONSOLE. I HAD TO WAIT ABOUT 10 MINS AND FINALLY MY CAR CAME BACK ON.
