Car stalls without warning while in motion. No check engine lights or sputtering. Took it to the mechanic and they changed the water pump after diagnosing that as an issue, got about a week and it happened again in traffic. Very scary. Started and got up the road about a mile then sied again. Mechanics are baffled.

problem #1

L200

  • 122,900 miles
I was stopping to turn right at a red light and my cars breaks stopped working. My car ran through the intersection, started violently shaking and then stopped. The car was still on but it would not drive. I turned the car off and tried to start it up 6 times and it wouldn't work. Then finally it started and I drove home. I went to start my car later that day and now it refuses to start. The battery light comes on, the car shakes, there's a very loud tapping/rattling sound, the ABS light flashes, the 'service engine soon' light is on. In the vehicle information section of this form, it asking me to enter the vehicles make, model and year. It's a Saturn L200 2002 but it's not giving me an option for the 2002. Only the 2003.
