Consumer Description

VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH WHEN THE TRUCK MADE A QUICK JERK AND THEM COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I CAME VERY CLOSE TO CAUSING A HIGHWAY PILE UP!! I HAD NO POWER, NO STEERING NO NOTHING. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET ACROSS 3 LANES SAFELY. CARS WERE SLAMMING ON BRAKES AND LUCKILY I DIDNT KILL MYSELF OR ANYONE ELSE. ONCE I GOT THE THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK GOING AND SAFELY GET TO AN EXIT. I CREEPED HOME ON A WING A PRAYER AND NOW THE TRUCK IS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY. I DONT DARE TO USE IT AND I NEED IT. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT, ITHAS GIVEN ME ANXIETY, IT WAS HORRIFIC. MY TRUCK HAS 94220 MILES ON IT.
