WHILE DRIVING THE 2000 CHEVY ASTRO THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND NO BRAKES. HAPPENED TO ME IN TWO WEEKS. LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION.
I ENTERED A PARKING LOT AT 10 MPH AND SLOWED TO 5 MPH AND TURNED LEFT INTO A PARKING SPACE AND TRIED TO STOP. THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK AND I CRASHED INTO THE VEHICLE NEXT TO ME. I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND IT WAS FULL. NO ABS LIGHT HAS EVER BEEN ON, AND I JUST RECENTLY PASSED MY VEHICLE SAFETY CHECK WITH NO CODES ON THE SYSTEM. *TR

HI, I WAS DRIVING THIS VAN WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STOPS. I HAD A VERY HARD PROBLEM OF TRYING TO GET OFF THE ROAD WITH NO BRAKES OR STEERING. I HAD IT TOWED INTO SERVICE. THEY REPLACED EVERYTHING FUEL PUMP, SENDING UNIT, FUEL FILTER, PLUGS, PLUG WIRES, DISTRIBUTOR AND RESET THE TIMING. IT NEVER DID SHOW UP A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR SHOWED A CODE THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I DROVE IT TWO DAYS LATER AND IT DID THE SAME THING. THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND DROVE IT AGAIN FOR A WEEK AND IT HAPPEN AGAIN. I SPENT $1200 TRYING TO GET THIS SAFE TO DRIVE. IT IS AS IF THE KEY WAS SHUT OFF. FINALLY WITH SOME OF MY KNOWLEDGE ABOUT WHAT CAN CAUSE THIS TO HAPPEN I CHECKED THE BATTERY. IT WAS ONLY ONE YEAR OLD. IT
VAN SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND WE LOSS BRAKES. *TR
