“WHEN DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE FREEWAY THERE IS A JERK IN THE CAR, THE TRIANGLE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON THAT SAYS PULL OVER WHEN SAFE, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF, AND WE CAN NO LONGER ACCELERATE. WE PULL OVER, TURN OFF THE CAR, AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON. *TR”

“INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND VEHICLE BEGINS TO DECELERATE. ONCE VEHICLE IS PULLED OVER TO SAFETY, VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE SHUT OFF. AFTERWARDS, THE VEHICLE MAY BE RESTARTED AND THE WRENCH LIGHT DISAPPEARS AND THE VEHICLE DRIVES NORMALLY FOR A FEW MORE MILES. THEN, THE ISSUE COMES BACK AGAIN. TO GET ANYWHERE FROM A TO B, THE VEHICLE WILL NEED TO BE PULLED OVER TO SAFETY AND SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED EACH TIME THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO DECELERATE.”
