| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was operating my vehicle on route 10 in prince george county. there is no light on this road. i was having a difficult seeing. the high beam seemed to not illuminate the road sufficiently. the low beams were good for close up but not far away. i pulled the high beam switch back to high beam (flash high) and held it so i could see better. as i was going through an "s" curve the entire electrical system on the car shut down. i immediately let go of the control and hit the brakes. i lost all power to the car. i can't remember if the motor cut off or not. i almost wrecked the car. after a second or two power came back on. i was in the oncoming lane of traffic with no lights and then they came back on. this is an extremely dangerous function of the vehicle and could easily result in deaths. i wanted you to be aware of this. i have never done this again due to the results of that incident. the date on this incident is an estimate. i have no idea when this happened. just know it was last year. *tr |
