Consumer Description

SLOWED FROM 45 MPH TO 15 MPH TO ENTER DRIVEWAY AND CAR STALLED OUT AND TOTALLY LOCKED UP, COULD NOT MOVE GEAR SHIFT TO GET INTO NEUTRAL TO MOVE CAR OFF PART OF STATE HIGHWAY ROAD! CAR MILEAGE AT 14477, OIL CHANGE NOT DUE PER DEALERSHIP STICKER FOR ANOTHER 1500 MILES. THIS IS 2ND INSTANCE OF DANGEROUS STALL OUT, HAD DEALERSHIP DOCUMENT LAST ONE, THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO OIL BEING LOW, BUT CAR WASN'T DUE FOR CHANGE FOR ANOTHER 1000 MILES AT THAT TIME! HAD THERE BEEN ANY ONCOMING TRAFFIC, MY NINE YEAR OLD WOULD HAVE TAKEN BRUNT OF HIT THE WAY CAR STALLED THIS TIME. GOD FORBID I HAVE TO SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING AN ANIMAL AND GET KILLED!
