Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH ON A CITY STREET, WHEN THE CAR JUST SHUT DOWN. I TRIED TO GIVE IT GAS, NOTHING HAPPENED. STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. I STILL HAD POWER TO THE RADIO AND LIGHTS BUT THE CAR WENT LIMP. I WAS BARLEY ABLE TO TURN IT INTO A PARKING LOT FOR SAFETY BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. I TURNED OFF THE CAR WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED IT BACK UP WITH NO PROBLEMS. I AM LUCKY I WASN'T IN TRAFFIC, BECAUSE THIS WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT, IT WENT FROM 45 MPH TO NOTHING IN SECONDS.
