Owner report 11518010 · 2023-04-20 (April 20, 2023)

This has happened 4 times in the last 2 weeks. While driving on the Interstate, the ABS light and skid control lights come on, shortly after all lights and the radio go off and the vehicle loses power. No power even when flooring the gas petal. Getting over to the side of the road, you can turn off the engine, sit for a few minutes, then all is fine. Diagnostics have been run showing no problems. Heading to the dealer, if I make it today! 150,000 miles.

THE COLLISION WAS VIOLENT ENOUGH TO CAUSE BRUISING ON MY BICEP AND UPPER THIGHS AND KNOCKED MY HEARING AIDS ONTO THE DASH. THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT INERTIAL REEL DID NOT ACTIVATE PROPERLY AS MY HEAD WAS ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN IT FINALLY CAUGHT.
