description: I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND THE ENGINE ACTED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL AND WOULDN'T RESPOND BY GIVING IT GAS. THEN IT JUST LURCHED FORWARD ABRUBTLY AND BEGAN TO RUN NORMALLY. THEN AFTER ABOUT 2 MORE BLOCKS WHILE WE'RE GOING 45 MPH IT COMPLETELY STALLED OUT IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A 3 LANE ROAD. THIS CAUSED THE CAR BEHIND ME TO ALMOST REAREND US BUT THE CARS BEHIND THEM ACTUALLY DID GET INTO A CRASH TRYING TO STOP FROM HITTING THEM. THANKFULLY A POLICE CAR WAS A FEW CARS BACK AND WAS ABLE TO PUT THEIR LIGHTS ON AND PUSH MY CAR OUT OF TRAFFIC BECAUSE WE COULDN'T EVEN GET OUT OF THE CAR WITH CARS WHIZZING PAST US ON BOTH SIDES. THANK GOD OR WE COULD'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN A MULTIPLE CAR CRASH AND ONE OF US COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT. THIS HAPPENED ON 07/13/18. I PAID ABOUT $600 TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR AND FIX SOMETHING IN THE COOLING SYSTEM. NOW IT IS ONLY A MONTH LATER, 08/15/18, AND IT'S DONE IT AGAIN. IT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONSTRUCTION ZONE DRIVING 35MPH WHILE TAKING MY CHILD TO SCHOOL CAUSING TRAFFIC TO BACK UP. THE CARS WERE DRIVING THROUGH THE CONSTRUCTION CONES/SIGNS TO OUR RIGHT ILLEGALLY OR THEY WERE DRIVING DOWN THE SHARED TURN LANE ON OUR LEFT TO GET AROUND ME. ABOUT 200 CARS DROVE PAST US WITHOUT BOTHERING TO OFFER HELP AND EVEN AFTER CALLING 911 FOR HELP, IT TOOK THEM ALMOST AN HOUR TO SHOW UP AND ONCE AGAIN HAD TO PUSH US OFF THE ROAD TO SAFETY. THIS IS CREATING A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. I SAW RECALL 09V169000 FOR SIMILAR OR SAME ISSUE FOR MY MODEL/YEAR BUT WHEN I LOOK
