| Description of the problem | Less than 30 days of purchasing the car it completely shut down while i was driving in traffic. Battery light came on, car rolled to a stop and would not crank back up for a few minutes. This happened while driving at a speed of 55 - 60 mph. I called the dealership and they had me bring the car back in. Apparently this is a safety feature that happens when the oil is too low!!! They did not top off the oil when i purchased the car. However, this is not a safe thing for a vehicle to do. I could have been killed in atlanta traffic on these interstates. This is beyond dangerous and this " feature " was not disclosed at the time of purchase! |
