THIS VECHICLE STARTS TO LOOSE POWER, JERKY ACCELERATION THEN CUTS OUT COMPLETELY. ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON INCLUDING CHECK ENGINE AND REMAINS ON UNTIL I TAK IT TO THE DEALER.

THE DEALER KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR THREE WEEKS FROM JUNE 20, 2019, AFTER THREE (3) WEEKS HE TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. PROBLEM OCCURED AGAIN TODAY, JULY 28, 2019.
