Consumer Description
I HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURN ON- WITHIN SECONDS MY ENGINE SHUT OFF AND I LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND BRAKE CONTROL. I HAD TO LET THE CAR ROLL TO A STOP. I PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND RESTARTED IT. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE ABOUT 100 FT AND IT TURNED OFF AGAIN. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND CODE THAT CAME UP WAS FOR THE THROTTLE BODY TO BE REPLACED ($716 USD). I HAD IT FIXED BUT CAR STILL WAS NOT DRIVING THE SAME AS BEFORE THE REPLACEMENT. 10 DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED IN MY SUBDIVISION. THE ENGINE TURNED OFF AND I LOST STEERING AND BRAKES. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THIS TIME THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN OVER. IT WOULD TRY TO -YOU COULD HEAR THE ENGINE TRYING TO START. TOWED IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NOW IT IS THE CRANK SENSOR?(ANOTHER $147USD). EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS IN THE CAR WITH MY KIDS AND HAD TO LET THE CAR JUST ROLL TO A STOP. THE FIRST OCCURANCE WAS ON 11/28/17 AND THE SECOND WAS ON 12/14/17.
