Corrosion and faulty connection to positive cable I have had to replace battery 2 times in the past year. The battery bracket is corroding and the computer. Positive cable terminal
I was at a stop sign and when it was my turn to go I started to drive and realized my car was not accelerating, I had the gas peddle all the way to the floor as a tractor trailer was fastly approaching my rear bumper, luckly I was able to coast to median. Took to dealer and they said there was a switch that needed to be replaced. My entire dashboard lights and radio went out, which dealership had to replace twice.
