Consumer Description

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHILE SLOWING DOWN FROM A HIGH SPEED (FOR EXAMPLE- PAYING A TOLL ON A HIGHWAY) THE ENGINE CUTS OUT AND ALL POWER IS LOST INCLUDING BREAKS AND STEERING. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AND AVOID ANY ACCIDENTS. I READ AN ARTICLE WHERE MITSUBISHI IS ADMITTING TO COVERING UP PROBLEMS. THE CAR IS CHRYSLER BUT THE ENGINE IS MITSUBISHI!! I OWNED THE CAR FOR TWO MONTHS AND THEY HAD TO CONDUCT A MAJOR OVERHAUL OF THE WIRING. I NOTED IN THE ARTICLE THAT IN THE MIRAGE, ENGINES WERE STALLING BECAUSE OF A DEFECTIVE ENGINE SHAFT. PERHAPS THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY CAR??
