Description of the problem | My life was almost taken away by my cars engine failing in the middle of making a left turn on a 4-lane road where traffic is going 50 mph. When it stalled, the engine just quit leaving only electrical (lights & media) working. I felt i was trapped as a car was headed right for me and i could not even increase speed because the whole car just seem to not move forward. I eventually pulled into a median, but nonetheless i am scared to drive this car. Much like the person who also reported this issue. |
