Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL WHILE I'M DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WILL SHUT OFF. I WILL PUT IT IN PARK AND IT STARTS BACK UP. THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE I CAN BE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC OR BE IN AN INTERSECTION AND IT JUST SHUTS OFF. I'VE TAKEN IT TO HAVE A MECHANIC LOOK FOR ANY READINGS AND NOTHING IS COMING UP. IT ALSO SHUTS OFF WHILE TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE UP FOR THE FIRST TIME. IT TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, AGAIN NOTHING COMING UP WHEN TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC.THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ALMOST A YEAR.
