Description of the problem | I was on my way home from work yesterday and when i went to make a right turn, the screen went out again.... Which is fine. We can all live without audio and a fancy screen in our cars, but as soon as the screen went out the power steering and stabilitrak lights both came on and my power steering completely went out in my car while i was turning. I almost hit a concrete wall and the cars that were waiting for their turn to go in the oncoming traffic lanes. It was bad enough that i had that issue but of course, there's more. We live on an army base - fort sill, in oklahoma - we have to stop at the gate to get on base and show our ids to get home. I stopped at the gate and talked with the guard for a minute, showed my id and went on with my business.. I started to drive away and my car went crazy again. I lost all power steering again and all of my lights flickered on and off for three minutes, inside lights and outside too. The car started jerking like it was trying to cut off, it finally stopped and i made it home but i refuse to drive this car again. |
