Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE DIED WHILE I WAS TRAVELING AT 75MPH. PRIOR TO THE ENGINE DYING THERE WEREN'T ANY ISSUES. IT SIMPLY STOPPED RUNNING AND I HAD TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER. ONCE STOPPED I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND THEN RESTARTED WITHOUT AN ISSUE. THEN THE ENGINE DIED A SECOND TIME AS I WAS MERGING WITH TRAFFIC. AFTER I PULLED OVER AGAIN I WENT THROUGH THE START UP PROCESS AND I WAS ABLE TO GET TO WORK. WHILE OUT AT LUNCH THE ENGINE DIED AGAIN WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA. THIS ISSUE JUST STARTED TODAY AND IT HAS ME HESITANT TO DRIVE, BUT THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE. I PLAN TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW, BUT I'VE BEEN READING OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND THE DEALERSHIP TELLING THEM THAT THEY CANNOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM. SO I'M TRYING NOT TO GET MY HOPES UP.
