| Description of the problem | The vehicle died while driving down the highway at 65mph. I had to pull over on the side of a busy two lane highway and call a tow service. I had to have some fuses replaced and then replaced the battery. I was driving it five days later and it did the same thing. Luckily i was in my driveway this time. I checked the fuses and and everything looked good. I was able to start it back up and get it home. Both times this has happened i have had my 3 kids and girlfriend in the vehicle. This is a major safety issue that needs to be fixed. I have read online that multiple persons are having the same or similar issues. Best i can gather is it is a ignition switch issue. I am not sure what to do but i do not want to trade it in or sell it and put another family in danger. |
