Consumer Description

FOR ABOUT A YEAR MY CAR WOULD STALL WHEN I WOULD TURN. IT WOULD HAPPEN OCCASIONALLY. SOMETIMES IT WOULD BE MORE FREQUENT THAN OTHERS. THEN LAST WEEK I WAS DRIVING AND THE ENGINE CUT OFF AGAIN AND I HAD TO PULL OVER AND PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART START THE CAR AGAIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. IF I WERE ON THE HIGHWAY AND THIS HAPPENED IT COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
