Description of the problem | I bought this car brand new in 2013. On 5/16/2018 i was driving down the road during rush hour in the left lane of traffic when all of a sudden the i get a notification that says "engine fault service now". Then the engine cuts off in the middle of a busy road. The person behind me almost smashed into me but swerved at the last second and cut a car off in the lane next to me. I tried to turn the car off and then on, but it wouldn't start. It was sooo dangerous to be stuck on the road not able to do anything. I had to call the police to set up flares behind me. I have been reading blogs and i am not the only person this has happened to. |
