Consumer Description

While stopped at a red light, the engine would completely shut off. I had to restart the car and it would take multiple attempts to turn it back on. The first time it happened, I thought it was a battery issue. But I had since changed the battery and the problem still occurs. It seems to happen when the idle mode is not turned off. This is dangerous as it could cause an accident to have your car suddenly stop working in the middle of traffic.
