I had several times I would be driving down the road and even the highway it has died on me. Luckily I was able to get the door locks come unlock that I knew the car died. When I am driving my flashers on my car continue to make a ticking noise. When I try to start the car sometimes I have to pump the gas and I had already had fuel pump replaced. When I start it I have to wait for a service engine soon before I can start it. Sometimes I be driving and my headlights will go dim and I turn it up as far and bright. It still don't work.
