| Description of the problem | While i was driving the car stopped and wouldn't start, all the lights came on,message on dashboard read "hybrid system error" "check charging system" than everything went off, no power, no emergency lights, this in the middle of a busy street. Luckily a sheriff's was nearby and rerouted cars. Very scary. Seems i am not the only one that has a similar experience. This happened when i was going to work at 7:45am at s very busy intersection. Car is at mechanic's shop. |
