Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON I-405 NORTH BOUNT WHEN THE ENGINE FALTERED . I KEPT ACCELERATEING BUT THE CAR LOST SPEED AND MADE A HI RAVING SOUND . I WAS REALLY SCARED AS THE CARS BEHIND HAD TO REDUCE SPEED FAST TO PREVENT REAR ENDING ME . I EXITED THE 405 FREEWAY ON BURBANK - I CONTUNED HOME TO NORTH HOLLYWOOD AT A VERY SLOW SPEED , UNDER 10MPH . WITH MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON . IT WAS A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE . THE NEXT DAY MY HUSBAND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WITH THE SAME DIFFICULTIES .
