Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEAR MY HORN START TO HONK. I FEW SECONDS LATER SOME OF MY WARNING LIGHTS STARTED TO LIGHT UP AND I DECIDED TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOP THE CAR. AFTER I DID THIS I OPENED THE HOOD AND SAW SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I ASSUME THIS MIGHT BE THE INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. AFTER THIS HAPPENED I AM UNABLE TO START THE VEHICLE OR PLACE IT IN DRIVE. IT IS TOTALLY UNDRIVEABLE.
