Consumer Description

The car would die while going down the interstate. It would just shut off and you would have to try to safely get off of the road and shut it off and restart it. 60K? miles on the car. We took it to several places to have diagnostic test run and was told it was this sensor then another sensor. Nothing was fixing the problem. Then was told it was the timing. Ended up 2 cam sprockets had to be replaced. Check engine light did come on. This could be a serious hazard if you were not able to get out of the way of other traffic.
