Description of the problem | Vehicle shuts off while driving & will not restart. Dealer has been unable to identify the cause. Has replaced ecm & attached a vehicle data recorder in order to hopefully locate the source of trouble. I have been in dangerous situations, traveling at high speeds on busy roadways when the engine failure occurs. I am given no warning, nor am i able to restart the car. I have had the car towed 4 times & i just bought the car a month and a half ago. *ak |
