Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Engine will falter and/or die at apparently random intervals while the car is in motion or stopped. it is not always possible to restart the engine immediately, and power steering is immediately and completely lost, with brakes losing power shortly thereafter. the loss of power and particularly of power steering causes this problem to be extremely dangerous, and it has occured twice while making low speed turns (which were not properly completed due to the loss of steering) and twice on the interstate causing the car to slow to more than 40 miles per hour under the common speed, nearly causing the vehicle to be struck by other traffic. the car has been taken in three times to correct the problem, but it still persists.
