Consumer Description

MY CAR DIDN'T START AND THEN FINALLY DID. WHILE DRIVING IT STALLED,ALL OF A SUDDEN I GOT CONTROL ENOUGH TO PARK AT WORK . WITH NO WARNING SIGNS I PROCEEDED TO CHANGE BATTERY AFTER WORK AND IT STILL WOULDN'T START THEN AFTER ATTEMPTING TO START WITH NEW BATTERY THE CAR WITH LOCK SYMBOL CAME OUT. STILL AT THIS POINT NO WARNING WAS GIVING AS I WAS DRIVING THIS CAR PERFECTLY FINE UNTIL THIS. ALL THIS WAS ON MAIN STREETS. I HAVE SMALL KIDS AND THIS IS NOT AN ACCIDENT THAT I WOULD EVER WANT WITH OR WITHOUT THEM BECAUSE OF A TECHNICAL ISSUE OF A CAR.
