Consumer Description

WHEN I GET IN MY CAR AND PUSH THE START BUTTON EVERYTHING SHUTS OFF LOCKING ME INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND I CAN NOT GET OUT!! LUCKILY I COULD RELEASE THE HOOD IF I HAVE SOMEONE TO LET ME OUT. IT HAPPENED ON TUESDAY NOVEMBER 27 AT 10PM IN 20 DEGREE WEATHER. I HAD A PANIC ATTACK TRYING TO GO FROM THE FRONT SEAT TO BACK AND BACK TO FRONT. I PRESSED MY HEAD SO HARD AGAINST THE CEILING THAT I IMMEDIATELY GOT A MIGRAINE AND THREW UP. THREE DAYS LATER I STILL HAVE A MIGRAINE AND THROWING UP. SHOULD THE CAR LOCK UP LIKE THAT WHEN LOSING POWER.
