Description of the problem | Car shuts off while driving and without warning. Yesterday driving home during my commute, in one of the busiest highways in nyc the vehicle shut off. This was a harrowing experience because it was rush hour, i was at the time, passing a short bridge which offered no shoulder for me to pull over. Confused and bewildered, i felt fearful someone my not see me and slam behind me. I quickly put my four ways and literally put my arm out the window frantically waving traffic around the disabled vehicle. As i tried to re-position the gear knob from driving to park, the light indicator would not move from the drive position although the knob did rotate to the park position. After 5 minutes or so, i attempted to start the car by pressing on the ignition button and like nothing ever happened it started up and i was able to drive home safely, although this type of event could had had a very different result. |
