Consumer Description

THE CAR STARTED SHUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF AN OFF RAMP OR JUST GOING DOWN A STREET OR COMING TO A STOP. LEFT ME WITHOUT POWER STEERING OR BRAKES. VERY SCARY. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALER AND AT FIRST THEY SAID IT WAS A GUNKY THROTTLE, BUT PAID FOR IT, BROUGHT IT HOME AND IT DIED AGAIN THAT SAME DAY. MECHANIC TOOK IT OUT AND HE SAID HE WAS GOING 30 MILES AN HOUR AND IT DIED ON HIM AND HE ALMOST WRECKED MY CAR. NO CODES ARE SHOWING OR NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SO THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH IT. PLUS THE TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO MY FRONT END IF I AM GOING NORMAL SPEED AND COME TO A STOP AT THE BOTTOM OF MY HILL AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THIS LAST YEAR AND WAS TOLD THAT WAS NORMAL FOR THAT CAR(I DON'T THINK SO). I AM AT A LOSS AND ON A FIXED INCOME. WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?
