| Description of the problem | I was driving up a mountain highway doing about 55 miles an hour and my car completely stalled out. It's like my car just completely shut off but i still had power. I was able to drift off onto the side where it was confirmed my car had just shut off. I tried restarting it three times with no success. I waited a few minutes and tried to restart it and it started. I tested it and it was running so i tried to get back on the highway where it instantly shut off again this time the engine shut off again and i lost control of my steering and just rolled backwards. No warning lights came on. I had to have it towed back down the mountain. I would like to note i had sufficient gas and oil. My car gets serviced regularly and i've had no other issues with it until now. I would also like to note i have found other recalls on this exact make and model for engine failure! Where the exact same thing happened to others. |
