“Driving down the road... Abs, brake, tsc lights kicked on and the car jerked to the right-hand side and slowed down about 10mph... As I kept going it lit up again and jerked hard... As I got speed to about 55mph did it a few more times before I finally shut the car off and had the dealership come get it..”
