Consumer Description

I CRANKED MY CAR, PUT IT IN DRIVE, AND STARTED TO PULL OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY WHEN MY CAR SHOOK AND STALLED. ALL OF MY LIGHTS CAME ON. I THEN TRIED TO RESTART MY CAR BUT IT CONTINUED TO CRANK OVER WITHOUT STARTING. I GAVE IT A MINUTE AND TRIED IT AGAIN. THE CAR STARTED, I DROVE AWAY, STOPPED AT THE STOP SIGN, AND THE CAR STALLED AGAIN. I CRANKED THE CAR AGAIN, PUT IT IN REVERSE, IT CHUGGED BACKWARDS, AND THEN STALLED ONCE I GOT BACK INTO MY DRIVEWAY. I LET IT SIT FOR 5 MINUTES, CRANKED IT AGAIN, THEN IT WAS FINE.
