| Description of the problem | While driving (car in motion)the car to pick up my children from school, it sounded like it was draining. The alert light beeped so i looked at dash the lights/info on car started blinking then the car stopped completely in middle of the road. No power would work i couldn't roll down the windows or turn on hazard lights, i had to put car in park. The key was stuck in the ignition and would not start from a jump. The car had no warning signs and was recently inspected and checked on computer and they were unable to get any codes or see any engine problems. Car would not even go into neutral to move off the road. Car was towed to my home and still not able to jump battery and car won't start. All power remains off and can't lock car with key either. |
