Consumer Description

REPORTED ENGINE LOSING POWER TO DEALERSHIP WHILE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY ON 2 PRIOR OCCASIONS BEFORE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN TOTALLY WHILE IN DRIVING MODE. DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM ON THOSE PRIOR VISITS. WITH THE COMPLETE POWER FAILURE, THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOUND THAT A FIRE HAD OCCURRED IN THE ELECTRICAL JUNCTION BOX, BURNING SEVERAL WIRES THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. DEALER INSISTED THAT THIS TOTAL SHUTDOWN HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH PREVIOUS LOST OF POWER THAT I REPORTED TO THEM. I WAS FORTUNATE NOT TO BE IN A LOT OF TRAFFIC WHEN MY FAILURE OCCURRED, BUT THE NEXT PERSON MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY.*AK
