yes. we couldn't get it to start, thought it was fuel pump or ICU and towed it 6 mi to mechanic who read code and found out it was a low battery. that's when it started as we started it up to drive it home that evening then the next morning it shuddered again. i drove it 70 miles today and it did nothing (it's my moms car). it appears to be ok now???
