| Description of the problem | Upon preparing to stop and/or make a left hand turn (multiple incidents) vehicle's ignition shuts off. This is very dangerous as i was attempting a left turn on a busy industrial 4 lane road when the vehicle shut off mid-turn. I had two small children with me (1 and 4) and am extremely lucky i was not hit, from both sides. My knee sits approximately 8 inches from the ignition switch so i know it was not bumped. |
