Consumer Description

DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, TRACTION CONTROL WARNING CAME ON, THEN A WARNING THAT ENGINE POWER REDUCED, THE CAR SLOWED DOWN FROM 65 TO 0 IN ABOUT 10 SECONDS. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID GETTING HIT, AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR, IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. I SAT THERE FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND TRIED TO START THE CAR AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO START IT AND GET GOING AGAIN FINALLY, BUT WAS VERY NERVOUS TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAD MY GRANDCHILD IN THE CAR WITH ME AND CARS WERE BEHIND ME. THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER TO THE CAR COULD HAVE ENDED UP TRAGICALLY.
