Consumer Description

MY 2017 DISCOVERY SPORT WITH 22K MILES, RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE FIRST TIME WAS ON THE FREEWAY IN TRAFFIC, AND THE CAR SHUT OFF, I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR TO PUT IT BACK IN GEAR. IT WENT TO THE DEALER WHO SAID IT WAS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM, THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE AND RETURNED IT TO ME. FOUR DAYS LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN, TOTAL SHUT OFF WHILE IN MOVEMENT, ENGINE HAD TO BE RESTARTED! NOT WORTH MY LIFE!!!
