| Description of the problem | While driving through town at 30 miles per hour, engine stalled, lost power steering and speed control. The engine light came on and the transaxle light was blinking. Thank goodness i wasn't on the highway. I believe one bad part had been replace with another as the torque converter part had been replaced and here it was doing the same thing all over again less than 1 year later. I figured i had no options, what could i do, had it towed. I just feel if they are using inadequate parts to replace bad parts the danger continues to apply and they should be held accountable. |
