Consumer Description

MY CAR SHUT OFF/THE ENGINE LOST POWER, WHILE SITTING IN TRAFFIC. I FELT A SLIGHT ROUGH IDLE, THEN REALIZED ALL MY DASH LIGHTS WERE ON, AND THE ENGINE WAS NOT RUNNING. I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK, AND PUSHED THE ENGINE START BUTTON. CAR STARTED BACK UP, BUT EVERY TIME I STOPPED I HAD TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK AND KEEP MY FOOT SLIGHTLY ON THE GAS TO KEEP IT FROM IDLING ROUGHLY AND SHUTTING OFF AGAIN. I HAD TO DO THIS FOR A HALF HOUR UNTIL I REACHED MY DESTINATION. AFTER SETTING FOR 4 HOURS THE CAR STARTED FINE AND I HAD NOT FURTHER ISSUES. BUT MY FEAR IS THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN WHILE IN TRAFFIC OR POSSIBLY WHILE DRIVING, WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
