Description of the problem | My wife was driving home and the engine suddenly stopped without any warning. The electrical system continued to run, but no engine. The service engine light and battery light came on. She managed to get the car to the side of the road. She waited about 10 minutes and was able to restart the car and drive home ( about 10 miles). I drove the car to work and back ( about 24 miles round trip ) the next day without any problems. I drove the car the next day to work and it happened two times to me before i got to work. I called the dealer to have it towed in. I had done some research online to see if there were any other complaints when i found this website. I saw a complaint from someone in lakewood california that listed a recall #, (14113 ro1 recall wc 0. 50 to reprogram the pcm (power control module) and the tcm (trans control module)) so when we took the car to the dealer i gave them this information. They had the car 5 days and test drove it several times. They said they did the reprogramming and also secured a wiring harness ( which was also mentioned in several complaints) along with a couple of other updates that were covered under the warranty. We have the car back now, time and miles will tell if this was the solution or not. |
