Usually, when the car fails, there is some sort of indication: smoke, sounds, smells, noises, rattles, etc. Nothing...Nada.
LOL so, your car has to be on fire before you pull over to the side of the road

The last experience I had when the engine light went on was a warning not to blow the engine. So now I think the car needs the fluids, however, it was not time for an oil change.
The "brain" dies every 10000km apparently.

Eventually, I tried to restart the car and apparently the brain had rebooted to allow the car to start. My friend picked me up downtown and drove the car to his house where we waited until --------- Finally, AAA arrived at 11:45 PM and towed the truck to the Lexus Dealership.
What's the bet it was a loose battery terminal?
