Q: While my mom was driving to work, my car shut off on the freeway.
I was told I needed a new starter. When the man from AAA had to tap my starter for my car to start, but I was also told it has to be something else wring with it, the fact that I stopped while she was driving. I had problems with the motor mounts before, because I got in an accident. What could be wrong with it?
My car has 190000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
