“I was coming home from school one night when all of a sudden my engine light came on. About 5-6 minutes later I was getting off of the freeway when my car stopped. I was able to turn the car back on although the radio and all of my interior lights were flashing. I drove it about 5 minutes up the road to the light in front of my apartment and it stopped again. By this time, it was smoking badly! So I got some help and pushed out of the way across the street. I was told to get my stuff out because it looked as if the car was going to blow. I got my stuff out and called the police. …”
