Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL. I WAS PULLING ON TO OUR MAIN ROAD A HIGHWAY FROM A STOP SIGN AND THE ENGINE SHUTOFF. I WAS ABLE TO START IT AND DRIVE IT ABOUT A BLOCK WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS HAPPEN A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES. EACH OF THESE TIMES I WAS LEFT WITH MY 2 CHILDREN IN A STALLED CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IT IS A MIRACLE WE DID NOT GET HIT OR HURT IN ANY WAY. WHEN I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO START IT ENOUGH AND MANEUVER US OUT OF TRAFFIC AND DANGER, WE WERE THEN STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE FIRST TIME WE WERE TURNING ONTO THE HIGHWAY, ALL OTHER TIME WE WERE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY. WE HAD RAN THE CODE WITH A MECHANIC AND IT WAS A FUEL CONNECTOR ERROR.
