Consumer Description

THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I HAD NO CONTROL OF BRAKES OR STEERING. IT COASTED TO A STOP. I CONTACTED KTNV CHANNEL 13 INVESTIGATIVE NEWS AND THEY FILMED ME AND MY STORY. THE EPISODE AIRED LAST NIGHT AND TODAY. I HAVE TWO 2012 VERSA'S; THE OTHER ONE DID NOT DO THIS. THEY ARE MY TWINS CARS; I TRY TO DRIVE ONE EVERY TWO WEEKS TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS OK. THE VEHICLE WAS DEFINITELY IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENED; HAD JUST EXITED THE INTERSTATE.
