| Description of the problem | I was driving up to a busy intersection where there was a red light. I was just starting to brake when my steering got stiff and my car wasn't following the curve of the street. I looked at the dash and all my lights were on. My car had turned off. I didn't know if i was too low on gas but the gas light wasn't on. I put the car in neutral and turned the ignition, which started right back up. I pulled into the gas station and filled up the tank. I didn't have another issue until today, 9-9-15, when i was driving down a slight hill going about 40 getting ready to get into the turn lane when again the steering got stiff and i looked down and realized all my lights on the dash were on. I had half a tank of gas at the time... Both times i was able to put it in neutral to restart it without a problem. Both times have been on busy streets with my children in the car.... This is an issue!! I called the dealership where i bought it last year and since they were close to closing ended up not helping me. I will call them again tomorrow to find out what the heck is going on.... |
