“While driving at about 35 MPH my vehicle lost all power relating to the brakes and steering. (the radio and lights were still operating.) the only thing I could do was coast to a stop. This caused me to run a red light, but fortunately the only car going through the intersection had just cleared it before I entered the intersection.”
