While driving vehicle stalled. Consumer used a starter battery kit to restart the vehicle or contacted aaa to have the vehicle towed. The aaa representative indicated that the stalling may be due to engine motor failure. Dealership and sears retail store performed a diagnostic test, but no failure code was found. Also, the battery and air bag warning light came on. This failure almost caused rear end collision. Owner is an ex philadelphia Eagle football player named curtis bunch-black.
