Consumer Description

MY CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. I WAIT FOR A MINUTE OR SO AND IT TURNS BACK ON AFTER RESTART IT.. INITIALLY IT WAS ONLY DOING THIS AS I WAS COMING OFF THE FREEWAY. THEN AGAIN A FEW MINUTES LATER AT THE STOP LIGHT. IT PROGRESSED TO TURNING OFF AS I WAS DRIVING AT 65 MILES ON THE FREEWAY. THIS ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. LUCKILY I WAS ON THE RIGHT LANE AND THERE WERE NO CARS DIRECTLY BEHIND ME. OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED AT THE LEAST. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. IT ALSO HAPPENED ON THE STREET WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP AND THE CAR TURNS OFF. IN A STRETCH OF FIVE MILES, IT HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TIMES. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. IT HAS BEEN THERE SINCE APRIL 3 AND THE DEALER STILL CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY, THEN THE SPARK PLUGS. THEY STILL HAVE IT AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT.
