Description of the problem | I was driving my car at approximately 50 miles per hour, when it seems like my steering or the wheels seemed "off.' i checked to make sure all of my tires were correctly pressured and they were, so i kept driving. Approximately 20 miles down the road, well going approximately 60 miles per hour the electronic stability control light came on post flashing and with an off symbol underneath it in two separate locations. Also the red lightning bolt symbol came on as well. At the same time that the lights came on my car decelerated at a rapid pace, which was not at all safe on the highway. I immediately turned on my flashers and pulled to the side of the road. After getting on my phone to see what it could be, i decided that i would limp home with the car so i could research a little further what was going on at home. While i was driving home afterward, the car never got faster than about 20 miles per hour and accelerated at a very, very slow pace. The air conditioner no longer worked and when i had to drive up a very small hill, the car seemed like it would stop completely. |
