Consumer Description

AS MY BOYFRIEND WAS TURNING THE CORNER AT AN INTERSECTION, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STOPPED. HE WAS ABLE TO STOP DUE TO HIS LOW SPEED. I REMINDED HIM TO PUT HIS FOOT ON THE BRAKE TO RESTART, AND HE DID THAT AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO MAKE THE ENGINE STOP. THE ONLY THING THAT WAS HAPPENING AT THAT TIME WAS THAT A TEXT WAS COMING IN ON MY SAMSUNG PHONE, WHICH WAS CHARGING AND CONNECTED VIA BLUETOOTH.
