Consumer Description

I WAS TRAVELLING 45 MPH, WHEN A CAR IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY STOPPED. I HAD TO BRAKE HARD AND MY CAR STALLED. I FELT A THUD, WENT TO ACCELERATE AND REALIZED MY CAR HAD NO POWER. I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR. MY CAR HAD A RECALL IN 2013 REGARDING POSSIBLE STALL DUE TO HEAT POSSIBLY CAUSING A DEFECT IN THE HYBRID COMPUTER BOARD. I TOOK IT IN AND THIS WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. THIS IS THE ONE AND ONLY TIME MY CAR HAS STALLED, BUT IT WAS SCARY BECAUSE I HAD MULTIPLE CARS BEHIND ME AND I COULD HAVE REAR-ENDED. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR INTO TOYOTA TO BE EXAMINED.
