Amber key light came on the vehicle's dashboard after the power lock window lights on the side of the doors started flickering and powering down while the car was in motion. then i pulled over to an empty parking lot in the middle of the night to check the front hood of the car for any electrical fire or burning odors and then i i was unable to start the car when i turned it off and got stranded. it was horrifying and very upsetting.
I was in a parking lot. i backed out when i started to shift into drive the car accelerated and started to spin in circles. the steering wheel locked. i was not in control of the car and nothing would worked in the car. i couldn't shift gears so i shoved it into park. the car finally stopped but not before it hit an island causing $7822 in damages to the rear of the car. the air bags did not deploy. i was quite shaken up but had no serious injury. a police report was filed. the manufacturer was contacted at the local and regional levels. they had someone look at the vehicle but after 7 weeks they still have not contacted me with their findings. i am not driving the vehicle and i have not had it repaired. i fear that if i have it repaired and i sell the vehicle, it is an unsafe car and someone else will get hurt. i have found several reports of similar occurrences on the internet.
