“I was diving down hwy 70 going to pick up my first delivery for the day when, I'm not sure how but the key came out of the on postion and fell out on floor, scared I was going to crash I hurriedly reached down and put it back in and noticed the security light had came on and within minutes it lost all power and shut off, luckily I am a good driver and didn't crash but manage to get off road safely. I'm so glad worse didn't happen. Now I have no car and probably lost all 3 jobs I had.”
