Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING AROUND 50MPH ON CITY STREETS WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN CAR LOST POWER AND WENT LIMP. WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR WAS MAKING A WEIRD NOISE UNDER THE HOOD LIKE IT WAS STRUGGLING. COULDN'T ACCELERATE AND I HAD TO COAST TO THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE WITHIN A 8 MONTH TIME PERIOD DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. EACH TIME I TURN THE CAR ON & OFF AGAIN AND IT SEEMS TO RESET. I'VE NOTICED MY CAR HASN'T BEEN GETTING THE SAME CITY MPG AS BEFORE. IVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR 2 YEARS, I'M THE SECOND OWNER AND THIS STARTED AT ROUGHLY 62,000 MILES.
