| Description of the problem | On two different occasions i have been in the process of driving the car down a city street when it has for no known reason shut off and become immediately inoperable. The first incident of this was in june 2020. I had the car towed to a mechanic where they could find nothing wrong. They changed the oil and replaced the battery but got no indication from the diagnostic report that anything was wrong. They suggested i take the vehicle to a mechanic that specializes in electronic issues. They found an issue in the steering column that they said may have been the problem. I had it repaired and thought it was fixed. This past saturday (1/16/21) i was in the process of driving the vehicle down a city street when again, with no warning, the engine shut off. I had the car towed to a mechanic again and again, they can find nothing diagnostically wrong with the vehicle. I have documentation for these issues but it is in the glove compartment of the vehicle and it is at the mechanics. I can provide if needed. |
