Description of the problem | While driving car home from work in sunny weather conditions, the cars dash beeped and lit up with the battery warning. My car stopped exelerating but all of the electrical in the car still worked. After trying to get it to turn over again it just rattled. I was able to get a jump and head home where we looked deeper into the problem. We finally took it to a mechanic who said that the starter, battery, alternator were all working and in good condition and had no clue why it would have died on me for no reason. I do not feel safe driving my child around on the highway or any busy/construction areas if my car could stop on a dime without warning. Not fixing this problem could result in someone getting hurt or even killed. |
