Example complaints

“The evening of 3/7/15 my wife and I drove from cedar rapids, ia. To our home in muscatine, ia. As we exited I-80 after almost one hour of constant interstate driving, the car stalled at approximately 5 MPH as we came to the stop sign at the end of the exit ramp. We lost power steering and power brakes as well, causing panic. This is not the first time this has happened in the two years we have owned this car. It seems to occur after prolonged interstate driving only. It did not occur that morning because we broke up the trip to cr with a stop in iowa city. …”
