THE LIGHTS HAS BEING GOING OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT ON THE EXPRESS WAY WITH MY BABY IN THE VEHICLE CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE I FEAR FOR MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF MY CHILD.

DURING REGULAR DRIVE OF THE CAR, I EXPERIENCED MAJOR ELECTRICAL SHUT DOWN. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN VERY OFTEN. I NOTICED THAT IS HAPPENING IN SUMMER TIME MORE OFTEN THAN IN WINTER TIME. I NOTICED IT FOR A FIRST TIME 2 YEARS AGO AND REPORTED TO LOCAL SERVICE DEALER. THEY TOLD ME TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT AND TO TELL THEM IF I NOTICE ANY TREND.

WHILE WE WERE AT A STOP, THE CAR AGAIN STALLED AND TOOK SEVERAL TRIES TO RESTART. I NO LONGER DRIVE WITH THE CHILDREN IN THE CAR, AND HAVE NOT SINCE THE PREVIOUS INCIDENT AT 61K.

THIS WILL BE THE FINAL TIME I WILL FILE A COMPLAINT, AS I HAVE CALLED THE BANK AND TOLD THEM TO COME AND GET THE CAR. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THE PERSON WHO CONSIDERS PURCHASING MY CAR, AS I AM SURE ANOTHER UNSCRUPULOUS SALESMAN WILL PUT THE CAR UP FOR SALE, DOES HIS OR HER RESEARCH AND FINDS THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE FILED HERE AND WITH THE PA...
