Description of the problem | I have owned the vehicle for 9 months. 1st occurrence on 3/31/19, accelerating to merge on highway and vehicle shuddered, lost engine power and went into limp mode. I limped it home and after about 10 minutes i started the vehicle and it drove fine... Until 2nd occurrence on 4/4/19... This time was driving about 35-40 mpg approaching an intersection when the vehicle lost all engine power and i coasted to the stop light, put in park, shut off vehicle and restarted... It then drove normally. I have been lucky twice. The 1st occurrence was scary as i was just getting on the highway with cars approaching me from behind very quickly not knowing that i could only go about 20mph. The 2nd occurrence i was very lucky to have gotten a red light just as i was coasting to the intersection. At this point i don't trust my vehicle and am scared to drive it knowing that at any time, i may lose power and not be so lucky. I have had zero problems for 9 months and now 2 of these issues in 5 days... What's next? |
