What owners say
Engine pulley separated, causng the belt to tear, resulting in vehicle stalling unexpectedly, and almost caused an accident. Cause unknown. Please provide details.
During the evening my wife, son and myself were approaching a stopsign when the tracer stalled for the first time ever. Upon trying to restart it a fire erupted under the hood eventually totalling the car before the fire dept. Arrived not having any insurance I am still obligated to pay the remainder of the note which is approx. 2,300 dollars. Has this ever happened before and if so why?
Engine stalls daily on freeways.
Transmission failure, causing hesitation and stalling.
