Example complaints

“The speedometer of the car suddenly went all the way to the end, passing the maximum number, 160 MPH, but the car was going at only 40 MPH. While this happened, the odometer of the car was accelerating like it was going at 160+MPH, that is in only one mile, the odometer read like it had travelled 4-5 miles. While this was hapenning, the car could not go more than about 55-60 MPH. As soon as the RPM touched 3000, the engine would shut off, and when it got below 3000rpm, it would go back on again. I stopped the car, and started again, and the problem was gone. …”
