DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED IN A PARKING LOT BY MYSELF, MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF ON ME. THE BATTERY LIGHT FLASHED AND I LOST THE STEERING AND BRAKES. I HAD TO SLAM ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO AVOID HITTING A PARKED VEHICLE. THIS INCIDENT WAS REPORTED TO GM AND WAS TAKEN TO WAYNE WOODRUMS PONTIAC DEALERSHIP IN MACOMB, IL. THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, THERE WERE NO CODES. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE INCLUDING BRAKING ISSUES THAT CAN NOT BE FIXED, PCV VALVE FAILURE, AND CURRENTLY IT IS STRUGGLING WHILE DRIVING AND LOUD RATTLING, I AM CALLING WOODRUMS BACK TOMMORROW MORNING. I AM UNSURE OF THE DATE THIS HAPPENED, ALL OF MY PAPERWORK IS IN ANOTHER LOCATION. I DO KNOW IT WAS IN NOVEMBER OF 2004. *AK
