Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND CROSSED OVER SOME RAILROAD TRACKS. ONCE I CROSSED THE RAILROAD TRACKS AND BEGAN TO COME UP A HILL, MY CAR BEGAN TO STALL. SUDDENLY, MY CAR'S GAS PEDAL WOULD NOT WORK, THEN MY BRAKES STOPPED WORKING, AND THEN ALL OF MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON (AS PICTURE) I WAS GOING ABOUT 45 MPH AND I HAD NO WAY OF STOPPING MY VEHICLE AND HAD TO USE MY EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP MY VEHICLE. I GOT MY CAR TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND I COULD NOT CRANK MY CAR UP OR MOVE IT OUT OF THE ROAD. I COULD NOT TURN MY STEERING WHEEL AND MY WHOLE CAR LOCKED UP AND BECAME UNMOVABLE. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY EVERYTHING ELSE FAILED AND I ALMOST WRECKED INTO A WOODED AREA IN THE MIDDLE OF A CURVE ON THE BUSY ROAD. I HAD TO CALL POLICE TO CONTROL TRAFFIC AND TO KEEP ME AND MY VEHICLE SAFE. I WENT TO TUSCALOOSA HYUNDAI IN ALABAMA AND THEY SAID THAT MY CARS ENGINE SUDDENLY WENT OUT.
