Consumer Description
CAR HAS STALLED UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AT SLOW SPEEDS, 4 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. IT SHUDDERS, THEN STALLS COMPLETELY. RESTARTING IMMEDIATELY HAS CAUSED ANOTHER STALL WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE. WAITING SEVERAL MINUTES HAS ALLOWED A NORMAL START, ALTHOUGH TWICE THIS HAS HAPPENED IN DANGEROUS, HIGH-TRAFFIC SPOTS WITHOUT AN EASY SHOULDER TO PULL ON TO.
