Consumer Description

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE PANEL STARTS FLASHING, ALL THE GAGES GO TO ZERO AND THE CAR SLOWS DOWN, SOMETIMES COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. WHEN IT SLOWS, IT SEEMS TO KICK BACK INTO GEAR AND I AM ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. AT TIMES, I HAVE TO PUT TO PULL OFF HIGHWAY COMPLETELY AND TURN OFF ENGINE FOR A MINUTE OR SO BEFORE STARTING IT AGAIN. IT IS HAPPENING SO FREQUENTLY NOW THAT EVEN PULLING OFF TO SHUT IT DOWN FOR AWHILE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WON'T START ACTING UP.. THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE, ON THE 16TH OF OCTOBER WAS THE LAST TIME I EXPERIENCEDTHE PPROBLEM.
