Consumer Description

THE CONSUMER EXPERIENCED STALLING AT INTERMIT TIMES SINCE SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE STALLING WOULD CAUSE THE CONSUMER TO BE UNABLE TO CONTROL THE STEERING OF THE VEHICLE.

WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN ALTERNATE DEALERSHIP, THE KEY CYLINDER WAS REPLACED, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN AND CAUSED THE CONSUMER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AND ON THIS OCCASION, THE CONSUMER HAD STRUCK A UTILITY POLE AND TOTALED THE VEHICLE. *SCC
