Engine & cooling

Complete engine shutdown without any prior warning after driving approx. 4 Hours on i-95 south. Car started and ran normally for another 3 hours immediately after I pulled over and stopped. Same thing happened the next day after same amount of driving time on i-75, car started without problem and I reached destination after another 15 minutes. Readout of computer showed nothing. Mechanic recommended to prophylactically replace cam sensor which I did. Effect remains to be seen. Recommendation: car manufacturers...

Read the full complaint

must be forced to take measures to prevent complete engine shutdown for any reason other than a direct engine failure. It is too dangerous and could lead to severe accidents if this happens in heavy traffic, especially in lanes with no shoulder! It is bad enough if an engine fails by itself. A brief internet search showed numerous reports of such incidents!!! *Tr
