Consumer Description

WHILE IN MOTION, THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. A MESSAGE ON THE DASH SAYS PUT THE CAR IN PARK TO START. THE CAR CONSUMES LARGE AMOUNTS OF SYNTHETIC OIL, WHICH SHOULD LAST UP TO 6 MONTHS BUT ONLY LASTS BETWEEN 700-1000 MILES PER QUART. THE OIL LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON INDICATING THAT THE OIL IS LOW. IT FLASHES ACROSS THE SCREEN TOO FAST FOR THE DRIVER TO SEE THE WARNING. WHEN THE OIL IS LOW, THE CAR BEGINS TO SHUT ITSELF OFF WHILE IN MOTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AT BOTH HIGH AND LOW RATES OF SPEED ON CITY STREETS AND A HIGHWAY DURING RUSH OUR TRAFFIC, NEARLY CAUSING A COLLISION WITH VEHICLES BEHIND ME.
