| Description of the problem | While driving on a rainy day, my car shut of-at the time i was doing approx 50 mph. I had to pull over to the side and restart the car. When i took my car, i was informed there is a tipm issue and my computer needed to be replaced, costing me over $1500. Since my warranty expired, i have to pay out of pocket. My hands are tied on this one, as it potentially can cause a serious safety issue for my future. Also a problem with the tipm, my car has failed to start on approx 10 occasions. It takes me about 20 minutes to get it to start. |
