Consumer Description

THE FIRST TROUBLE STARTED WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MILES/HOUR, MY CAR STARTED SLOWING DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I HAD TO DRIVE AT THE SPEED THE CAR WOULD CHOOSE TO RUN AND IN A FEW MINUTES IT WOULD WORK FINE AGAIN. BUT THIS KEPT HAPPENING WHEN I WOULD ACCELERATE THE CAR ON HIGHWAYS AND I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER WHO SAID IT WAS SENSOR PROBLEMS. ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN I USE AIR CONDITIONING, OR USE THE HEAD LIGHTS. CAR WILL RANDOMLY NOT TURN ON ALTHOUGH BATTERY IS NEW AND MAKES A HUMMING NOISE AS I TURN THE KEY.
