Consumer Description
MY CAR WILL DIE AFTER BEING STOPPED (EX. AT A RED LIGHT, STOP SIGN) AND WILL NOT RESTART RIGHT AWAY. SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T DIE COMPLETELY. WHEN IT DOES YOU ARE UNABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK OR ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHERE WE WERE STOPPED AT A RED-LIGHT AND THE CAR DIED AND WOULD NOT RESTART. A CAR BEHIND US WAS APPROACHING THE LIGHT AND SAW THAT IT WAS GREEN, QUICKLY CAME UP BEHIND US HONKING THEIR HORN AND LUCKY WAS ABLE TO MOVE TO THE OTHER LANE TO AVOID HITTING US. THIS SEAMS TO HAPPEN WHEN WE FORGET TO TURN OFF THE AUTO IDLE STOP. THIS IS SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO PUSH EVERYONE YOU START THE CAR. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER THEY PUT IN A NEW TRANSMISSION AND CHANGED THE TIMING BELT. PREVIOUSLY I HAD THE CARS FUEL INJECTORS REPLACED. AFTER ALL THIS WORK THE CAR IS STILL DYING AND IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY HAVE HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM BUT DON'T KNOW OF A FIX YET.
