Consumer Description

MY PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE CONSISTENT WITH OTHER DRIVERS. I WAS DRIVING HOME AT NIGHT WHEN I TURNED A CORNER AND THE VEHICLE JERKED AND THEN DIED. NO WARNING SIGNALS CAME ON. NO LEAKING FLUIDS. VEHICLE WOULDN'T START UP ANYMORE. BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND STILL UNABLE TO START THE CAR. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC TESTED THE ALTERNATOR AND STARTER AND NEITHER ONE WAS THE PROBLEM. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED IT AS A LOCKED UP MOTOR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO.
