Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING, ALL POWER (ALL POWER) IS LOST, WITHOUT WARNING. DRIVING NORMALLY IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR SIMPLY SHUTS DOWN. ENGINE STOPS, NO LIGHTS (INTERIOR OR EXTERIOR), NO DASHBOARD DATA, SAFETY SYSTEMS DISABLED, NO TURN SIGNALS, NO POWER STEERING, SAFETY FLASHERS DO NOT FUNCTION, ETC. ESSENTIALLY LIKE THE CAR WAS TUNED OFF. TRY TO RESTART - NOTHING. AFTER 'RESTING' FOR 5 MINUTES, STARTS AND RUNS NORMALLY. HAS REOCCURRED 3 TIMES. VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP HAVE RESULTED IN NEW BATTERY, AND ALTERNATOR. NO DEFINITIVE DIAGNOSIS, JUST 'HOPE' THAT THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED. BUT NEITHER OF THOSE REPAIRS HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM, IT REOCCURED AGAIN (3RD TIME). THE CAR IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IN THIS CONDITION, TO ME AND MY FAMILY BUT ALSO TO OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. IT HAS BEEN TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. NO DIAGNOSIS YET.
