Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. I WAS LISTENING TO MUSIC WHILE ON MY BREAK WHEN I GOT A WARNING THAT THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO BE SERVICED. THEN IT CYCLED THROUGH ALL THE COMPONENTS TELLING ME EVERYTHING NEEDED TO BE SERVICED. THE RADIO SHUT OFF. THE COOLANT WENT TO HIGH THEN BACK DOWN TO LOW. THE FUEL SAID IT NEEDED TO BE SHUT OFF. THE WINDOWS WOULD NOT WORK. THE KEY FOB WOULD NOT WORK. I COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO START OR SHUT THE LIGHTS OFF. I COULD NOT GET THE CAR OUT OF GEAR. IT WAS SITTING IN A PARKING LOT. THEN EVERYTHING WENT DARK EXCEPT THE PARKING LIGHTS. THIS CAR IS ONLY THREE MONTHS OLD. AND HAS 1100 MILES ON IT. I HAD A PREVIOUS PROBLEM WITH IT LOSING POWER WHILE I WAS DRIVING.
