What owners are reporting 2 most recent
I was driving at approximately 45-50 MPH and all the warning lights came on and in the next second the car just lost all power. Nothing! I pulled over and it started about 5 minutes later. Having to drive an hour back home on the highway was scared and my father being a disabled vet - this is the vehicle that is used.
