Other Fuel System problem #1

For reasons unknown I was at a stoplight. The car started shaking, and the check engine light started blinking, and then the light went off. Also, the steering wheel locks up at times and I’m unable to to move the steering wheel because it’s locked.

Other Fuel System problem #2

On 2/11/21, I was driving north on i294 when I suddenly lost acceleration. I had several near misses with a semi and the vehicles behind me. I pulled over, checked the vehicle and did not find an issue. I went back on the road and then the check engine light began flashing. I took the car into the shop, where it was found to have a bad catalytic converter, spark plugs, and ignition coils. This was not something that happened over time. It was very quick. I had the parts replaced. 700 miles later, on 2/25/21, the same exact thing happened. Again, very close to wrecking and causing a very serious accident. I took the car in again, and they were shocked to find the catalytic converter had melted. Per mechanic, it is due to service bulletin 428 and 429. Please note that there is only one area for adding speed, and one area for description of issue. This occured while driving on the highway, and continued until the car was taken to the shop, twice, on two different dates.

Other Fuel System problem #3

Always needed oil.
