Consumer Description

CAR WILL SHUT DOWN, WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF INSTRUMENT/GAUGE WARNING, WHEN GOING AT 30+ MILES PER HOUR. PANEL LIGHTS COME ON JUST AS THEY WOULD WHEN YOU FIRST TURN THE IGNITION KEY. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED I HAD TO WAIT ABOUT 15 MINUTES BEFORE THE CAR WOULD RESTART. A MECHANIC WHO CHECKED OUT THE CAR SAID IT WAS THE IGNITION MODULE SYSTEM, AND THAT I COULD HAVE IT REPLACED OR WAIT FOR A GENERAL RECALL. ON LATER INCIDENTS, THE CAR WILL NOT START FOR AT LEAST 5 TO 10 MINUTES.*AK
