Consumer Description

MY 19 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE STORE AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING ALL POWER WENT OUT STEERING BECAME HARD AND BRAKES BECAME HARD. AND SOMETHING SMELLED AS IF IT WAS BURNING. WE ARE THE SECOND OWNERS OF THE CAR AND BARELY DRIVE IT. IT WAS PURCHASED 2 YEARS AGO AND REGULAR MAINTENANCE IS KEPT ON THE CAR. UNFORTUNATELY WE DON'T HAVE A WARRANTY ON THE CAR ANY LONGER AND STILL MAKING PAYMENTS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT AND AS WELL AS COST MY DAUGHTER HER LIFE IF SHE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO CONTROL THE CAR WHEN EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN IN TRAFFIC. *TR
