Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY VAN, I ATTEMPTED TO TURN LEFT ON A CITY STREET, WHEN EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN ON ME. ALL OF MY DASHBOARD LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. I HAD NO STEERING, NO BRAKES, IT WAS FRIGHTENING! I DID HAVE HEADLIGHTS, FLASHERS, I COULDN'T ACCESS THE SIDE DOORS TO GE MY CANE OUT. MY BACK GATE WOULDN'T OPEN EITHER SO I COULD GET MY ROLLERATOR AND WALK TO THE BUSINESS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO GET TO. I HAD TO HAVE MY VAN TOWED AND WAS TOLD IT'S MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE TO BRING MY AWARENESS TO THIS ISSUE, FOR IF I WAS ON 95, MY MAIN HIGHWAY AND THIS HAPPENED, I WOULD BE DEAD ALONG WITH MY SON. ATTACHED IS THE DASHBOARD, BUT THE CENTER BOTTOM RED LIGHT WAS FLASHING ON AND OFF. I'M TOLD IT'S MY SECURITY SYSTEM LIGHT
