Consumer Description

INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR STARTING, LIGHTS WILL FLICKER AND CAR WILL MAKE CLICKING NOISE AFTER THE INITIAL FLICKER. THE CAR COULD TAKE ANYWHERE FROM A FEW MINUTES TO 1 OR 2 HOURS TO START. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WILL START TO SHAKE AND THEN SHUT OFF WHEN SLOWING DOWN OR COMING TO A STOP (RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN). THE CAR SOMETIMES WON'T START UP OR WILL IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF AGAIN WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF A CITY STREET. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE WE HAVE TODDLER AND SOON TO BE NEWBORN WHO WILL ALMOST ALWAYS BE IN THE CAR.
