#10159066 | June 5, 2006

THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF (ENGINE STOPPED) WHEN COASTING DOWNHILL TOWARD CONSTRUCTION BARRELS. WAS ABLE TO AVOID BARRELS BY TURNING INTO UNOCCUPIED TURN LANE. POWER STEERING HAD GONE OUT. POWER BRAKES HAD GONE OUT. HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR THREE WEEKS. OCCURRED ONCE. NOTICED THAT A RECALL (CAMPAIGN ID # 04V175000) THAT REQUIRED REPROGRAMMING OF THE PCM MODULE, AND THE SYMPTOMS OF WHICH EXACTLY DESCRIBED THIS PROBLEM, EXISTED FOR THIS VEHICLE MODEL YEAR. MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH DEALER TO CHECK THE CAR THE FOLLOWING DAY. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THERE WERE NO OPEN RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE SO I DECIDED TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE TEST UNCOVERED THAT THE PCM MODULE DID NEED THE REPROGRAMMING WHICH THE DEALER DID, BUT THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THE CAR NEEDED ADDITIONAL PARTS TO COMPLETELY RESOLVE THE PROBLEM WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR. FROM WHAT I CAN TELL THE RANGE...
