My 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee in July of 2014, apx 60,000 miles, engine started to shut off while the vehicle is in drive and driving. Typically this would happen while breaking or making left hand turns. The only way I knew that the engine was off is that the breaks do not work. Nor does the emergency break or power steering. There are no warning light. The radio and light remain on even with this engine failure. After the vehicle comes to a complete stop, you can place in park to restart. At first I thought maybe the key fab was getting hit and shutting off. Upon contacting the dealer they tol ..read more

Trying to figure out next steps on this. Problem started a couple weeks ago.
The car is a 2010 Honda Accord with about 180k miles.
Couple weeks ago, my wife said the car struggled to start. I looked at the dash and saw no warning lights. I checked the battery and it was a little low, so I replaced it.
I tried starting the car after changing the battery and noticed a green key light flash and a check engine light. When I tried starting it, it would attempt to start but never turn over.
Green light means the car isn’t detecting the correct key. I ran the code and got P2118 which is - Throttle Ac ..read more

Hello forum friends. It turns out that in November 2022, I bought a brand new 2022 Tucson. Initially, everything was fine, although I noticed that the engine was overheating and smelling burnt. I thought that, being a new vehicle, it was normal and would improve with break-in. However, a month ago, while on the highway and after half an hour of driving, the car lost power, forcing me to pull over on the shoulder among hundreds of cars traveling at 80 miles per hour. You can imagine the shock, the honking, and the lights of other vehicles dodging us, etc. The car wouldn't accelerate, lacked pow ..read more

I have heard from a Honda service guy I know and have also read it online, that they accord hybrids are having a lot of electrical problems such as AC recycling motor noise, connectivity issues, failed PCU in hybrid battery, etc. in the first few weeks to months of getting the vehicle. Obviously this is a cause for concern. Please let me know if my fears are unfounded or not. Thank you ..read more

Hello all, Recently while driving my wife's 2013 Nissan Sentra the traction control light came on followed by what felt like the transmission starting off in second gear. Then the ABS light came on and I returned home. I hooked up my Thinktool Pro and scanned for codes and found a usual MAF Code (P0101) and a new code C1130-00 Engine Signal code. Thinking of a bad wheel speed sensor I graphed all four and drove the car and saw no difference in any of the sensors. I cleared the codes and rechecked and everything was normal so I drove over to get the oil changed and while waiting in line the ABS ..read more

I have a 2017 hyundai elantra gt and I recently got a new engine put into my car. Since the new engine my car randomly shuts off at complete stops. My car has been to the dealer twice and because they can't duplicate the problem and no codes are showing they say nothing is wrong with the car. Any help ..read more
