Consumer Description

WHEN COMING OFF OF THE OFF RAMP FROM THE HIGHWAY, I CAME TO A STOP LIGHT. ONCE SITTING AT THE STOP LIGHT THE HEATER, DASH AND HEADLIGHTS ALL WENT OFF BUT THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING. ALL 3 OF THE MENTIONED ABOVE FLICKERED ON AND OFF MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE COMING BACK ON AGAIN AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT POPPED UP. THIS IS NOT RELATED TO THE IGNITION AS MY KNEES ARE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE KEY AND THE KEY HAS NOTHING DANGLING FROM IT. THIS IS RATHER DANGEROUS. IF I WAS STILL DRIVING AND IT HAPPENED, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SEE MY SPEED OR THE ROAD.
