problem #1

May 182005

Eclipse 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 97,000 miles
I was driving 60 - 65 on the high way, all of the sudden the car slowed down to 25 without any warning and engine turned off by itself. I could get out safely in god's will coz a truck was driving on the right side while am trying to take the shoulder of the street and my car is slowing down fast because of the engine is off, and the truck driver brakes so hard and lots of cars were almost hit him, they brake as well, it was scary
