Consumer Description

ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT HAPPENS ON THE FREEWAY, ON CITY STREETS, OR AT IDLE. WE HAD THE PCM UPDATED IN DECEMBER 2016. IT IS NOW MARCH 2017 AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING OR AT IDLE. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THE BRAKES BARELY WORK AND YOU LOSE POWER STEERING WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF POSTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE, WITH NO RESOLUTION. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES.
