Consumer Description

THE FAULTY ECU COMPONENT ON MY CAR HAS AGAIN MADE MY CAR TO STALL, BUT THIS TIME I WAS IN A BAD SITUATION, W/THE ENGINE STALLING OUT I HAD NO POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES, THUS CAUSING ME TO DRIVE INTO A 10FT DEEP DITCH. AS METIONED BEFORE, THIS HAS NOT BEEN THE ONLY TIME MY CAR HAS STALLED DUE TO THIS PROBLEM (IE IN THE MIDDLE OF BUSY INTERSECTIONS AND SO FORTH) THIS IS A VERY DAGEROUS DEFECT THAT, IZUZU UAND NHTSA ARE AWARE OF, I'M HOPING THAT THIS INCIDENT ALONG W/THE MANY OTHERS IS ENOUGH FOR NHTSA TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM . THANK YOU. *AK
