January 11, 2015 2003 chevrolet monte carlo - vin: [xxx], mileage: approx 120,000 since october 2014, the car shuts off while driving. i loose the power steering and it's very scary if you are on the freeway. it's hard to bring to a stop and sometimes when i shift to park it makes a horrible grinding noise. it always restarts after i sit awhile and drives like nothing has happened. . it has happened numerous times and now it's happening more often. it could cause a bad accident. it's to the point i am very scared to drive it, because i never know when it's going to happen. last wee it happened three times. i took it in for the recall where they modify the key. it did not help. my excellent mechanic said he has never had a situation like this where he can't figure out what's wrong. (incident information will not let me enter dates). information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr
When the car is being put into reverse, the gear shifter sticks and is very hard to shift. i have to put force on it to shift gears. *tr
