Consumer Description

LAST NIGHT LEAVING FROM WORK, IN THE DARK AT 9;30PM, STARTED CAR AND STARTED TO PULL OFF THE SHOULDER ONTO THE ROADWAY, PRESSED ONTO GAS PEDAL AND CAR WENT SLOW THEN THE ABS SENSOR CAME ON AND A SHORT DISTANCE LATER THE TRACTION CONTROL CAME ON ALONG WITH HILL ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE. I HAD THIS EXACT PROBLEM EARLIER THIS YEAR, ONLY THE ADDITION OF THE 4WD NOT BEING AVAILABLE AND IT WAS A BAD ABS SENSOR. I HAD IT REPLACED AND HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTIL LAST NIGHT. THEN THIS MORNING, I HAD TO BACK UP TO GO TO WORK AND THE REAR END STOPPED THE CAR AND HAD THERE NOT BEEN ENOUGH ROOM I WOULD HAVE BEEN STUCK. I WAS ABLE TO GO FORWARD THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON, SHORT DISTANCE LATER THE TRACTION CONTROL CAME AND THEN WHEN I WENT TO PARK THE NO HILL ASSIST CAME ON. NOTHING VISIBLIY WRONG AGAIN. APPOINTMENT IN THE MORNING TO HAVE THE CODES READ AGAIN.
