Complaint Summary
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Owner Narrative
WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65MPH AND SUDDENLY, THE VAN ENGINE SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. A MESSAGE APPEARED STATING 'TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK. PUT IN P'. WE WERE ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. THINKING WE MAY HAVE ACCIDENTALLY SHIFTED THE CAR INTO PARK OR THAT THE INCIDENT WAS JUST A FLUKE, WE TOOK THE CAR FOR ANOTHER TEST DRIVE ON A BACKROAD AND THIS HAPPENED AGAIN. BOTH TIMES, AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WE WERE ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AND DRIVE NORMALLY. WE HAVE SERIOUS CONCERNS FOR OUR SAFETY IF IT'S POSSIBLE FOR THE VAN TO SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING.
