Description of the problem | I was driving in a neighborhood area approaching my community service event at a boys and girls club. Searching for street parking, i was about to slow down releasing my accelerator pedal and suddenly the car stalls. I safely steer to the right and make a stop in attempt to move out of the way in a busy street. The screen on my car instructs me to put my gear back to park in order to continue, i shift it to park as it says on the screen and the screen instruction remains the same. The start button light is indicating that my car is still on so i shift my gear to drive and stepped on my accelerator pedal. The engine revs, but it does not move. I put my gear back to park and pushed the button to turn the engine off. Then i push the start button again to turn it back on. This time i shift it to drive and i am finally able to drive forward. I was stuck in the stalled position for a few minutes in a panic trying to figure out what was going on. Imagine if this happened on a freeway or a very busy major street. It would be very dangerous to me and my family as well as other drivers around. I demand a safety recall for the safety of my family and others. *bf updated 8/16/18*jb |
