Consumer Description

CRANKSHAFT SENSOR IS BAD CAUSING THE CAR TO STALL AT ANY TIME - EVEN AT HIGH SPEEDS. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY THROUGH A NEIGHBORHOOD AS WELL AS ON AN INTERSTATE CAUSING THE CAR TO BE DIFFICULT TO STEER TO GET OFF THE ROAD. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS! CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME AND COMPUTER SAYS THAT ITS THE CRANKSHAFT/CAMSHAFT SENSOR THAT NEEDS REPLACING.
