SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, STEERING
AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK, THE MOTOR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT USED TO ONLY HAPPEN WHEN YOU GO PAST THE FIRST "CLICK" OF THE GAS PUMP. TODAY IT DID IT BY JUST FILLING THE TANK TO FIRST SHUT OFF. THIS LEAVES YOU WITH NO STEERING, NO BRAKES AND NO POWER WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS IS DANGEROUS ON SEVERAL LEVELS. THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING DOWN A FOUR LANE ROAD IN MODERATE TRAFFIC WITH FIVE PASSENGERS-TWO INFANTS, TWO CHILDREN AND ONE ADULT.

TAKATA RECALL: IT TOOK OVER 2 YEARS FOR MY LOCAL (ONLY DEALER WITHIN 100 MILES) TO REPAIR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG RECALL (REPAIRED 8/19/16). THE DRIVER AIRBAG REMAINS DEFECTIVE. I WAS TOLD BY DEALER 8/19/16 THEY HAD NO IDEA OF HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE, THAT THEY COULD NOT PUT ME ON A WAITING LIST, THAT I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR A FOLLOW UP RECALL NOTICE. IN THE INTERIM I DRIVE THIS DEADLY VEHICLE EVERY DAY. THE RECALL HAS BEEN IN EFFECT FAR TOO LONG TO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE. I SUSPECT BECAUSE I HAVE AN OLDER VEHICLE, JUST LIKE OLD PEOPLE WHO NEED MEDICAL CARE UNDER OBAMA CARE, WE ARE BEING PUT ON THE BOTTOM OF THE LIST, HOPING WE EITHER DIE OR OUR CARS ARE CRASHED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF BY SCRAPPING THE OLDER VEHICLES. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I BEGAN ACCELERATING ONTO A RAMP TO ENTER ONTO A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND MY ASPEN COMPLETELY LOSS ALL POWER SUDDENLY. THE ENGINE JUST SHUT DOWN INCLUDING POWER ALL ELECTRONICS. I HAD TO LET THE CAR GLIDE TO THE SHOULDER, PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR, WHICH IT STARED AS IT ALWAYS HAS. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE NOR DID IT HAPPEN AGAIN. I HAD THE CAR CHECKED OUT AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. BEING THAT THIS HAPPENED WHILE ENTERING A BUSY HIGHWAY, A SERIOUS ACCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE SPUTTERS AND DIES AFTER REFUELING. AFTER REFUELING THE FUEL TANK THE VEHICLE DOES NOT WANT TO STAY RUNNING. IT WILL RUN LONG ENOUGH TO PULL OUT, OR ATTEMPT TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THEN WILL DIE. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. MY MECHANIC HAS DETERMINED IT TO BE A CHECK VALVE IN BETWEEN THE FUEL TANK AND VAPOR CANISTER THAT FAILS AND ALLOWS RAW FUEL TO ENTER THE EMISSION SYSTEM. THIS IN TURN CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO DIE. ONE WOULD THINK THAT THIS IS A SIMPLE FIX, BUT THE CHECK VALVE IS ONLY AVAILABLE WITH THE $807 FUEL TANK. THIS ISSUE IS SERIOUS AND COULD CAUSE A WRECK WHICH COULD LEAVE TO INJURIES AND OR DEATH.
