| 2011 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AT APPROXIMATELY 35MPH, AFTER JUST HAVING LEFT A STORE. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A "CLUNKY" SOUND AND THE HUD DISPLAYED "SERVICE ENGINE". I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. I TRIED TO REFIRE THE ENGINE THINKING PERHAPS THERE WAS A HICCUP IN THE FUEL LINES. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED WITH THE SAME CLUNKY SOUND, AND ABRUPTLY STALLED WITHIN 5 SECONDS. *TR |
