| Description of the problem | While driving the 2013 mks at 70 mph on a 3 lane highway the power cut out and the car began to decelerate. I was able to guide the car from far left lane across 2 additional lanes to shoulder of the road with no power, we coasted. Luckily there was light traffic at the time. The car would not restart and a tow truck was called. When our son picked us up roadside he conveyed that the identical problem happened to him in the car. This was approximately a month earlier. I am sure you understand that this created an extremely unsafe condition for us and other drivers. I have contacted the dealership that sold us the car. *ln |
