Horrible experience...!!!

I think the 09 owners should check this out before it happens. My whole day was ruined waiting for the tow company that was 1 hour late. ETA was 50

The only problem is there is no real warning to know when it will fail. Makes me worried at times to take my car out for a drive too far.

Agreed. There is absolutely no warning or indication. It works fine and then doesn't work at all, and then the car just sits there, completely disabled.

And that's the biggest issue for me. Like you said, I don't want to take the car on a trip, don't want to kill it late at night at a service station or a store. It basically feels like a crap-shoot each time I turn it off. I should keep some dice in the center console.
