Consumer Description

WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A MAIN ROAD, MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. MY STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED, GAS AND BRAKE PETAL WERE NOT WORKING, BASICALLY MY CAR WAS GOING ON ITS OWN. WORST PART WAS THAT IT WAS GOING ON A SLANT WHILE OTHER CARS DRIVING 45/50 MILES PER HOUR HEADING TOWARDS ME. I COULD NOT STOP MY CAR, NOR DRIVE MY CAR, NOR TRY AND STEER MYSELF TO A SAFE LOCATION. MY CAR JUST KEPT GOING. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. I HAVE ALMOST LOST MY LIFE 2 TIMES ALREADY. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. EVERYTIME I GO TO CHRYSLER... THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHAT IS GOING ON. WHEN WILL THIS BE FIXED AND HOW?
