Consumer Description

ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, 07/17/2020 AND 07/29/2020, MY VEHICLE CUT OFF/STALLED AFTER I HAVE ACCELERATED FROM A STOP LIGHT. AFTER I REACHED THE SPEED OF ABOUT 15 MPH AND THEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON THE ENGINE SHUT OFF FOR 3-4 SECONDS WHILE MY FOOT WAS STILL DEPRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR. THEN JUST AS SUDDEN, THE ENGINES POWER COMES BACK ON AND JERKS ALL PASSENGERS BACK IN THEIR SEATS.I NEVER TOUCHED THE BRAKE DURING BOTH OCCURRENCES.THE BOTH TIMES IT HAPPENED I WAS ON A MULTI LANE CITY STREET.THE ISSUE HERE IS THAT BY MY VEHICLE STOPPING SUDDENLY WITHOUT APPLYING THE BRAKE MY BRAKE TAIL LIGHTS WILL NOT WARN THE DRIVER BEHIND ME, AND HE MAY IF HE IS NOT PAYING ATTENTION REAR END MY VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED ON TWO
