Consumer Description

AS WITH MANY OTHER VEHICLES MY VEHICLE IS SITTING OF ON ITS OWN. SAYING THAT CAR NEEDS TO BE IN PARK. DEALERSHIP SAYS IT IS A SAFETY FEATURE TO SHUT ENGINE OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY. THE FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO DO THIS WHEN IT IS LOW ON OIL. NO WASTING LIGHT OF LOW OIL JUST IMMEDIATELY SHUTS OFF. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING DOWN I 10 IN DOWNTOWN PHOENIX. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. THIS IS WHY WE PAY TAXES TO HAVE DEPARTMENTS WATCHING OVER THIS KIND OF STUFF PROTECTING THE CONSUMER. THIS ISSUE IS REPEATING IT HAS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIMES AND WILL CONTINUE UNTIL ENGINE IS REPLACED.
