Consumer Description

MY CAR SHUT OFF ONCE WHILE I WAS IN IDLE AT A RED LIGHT AND SECOND TIME WHEN I WAS BACKING UP INTO A PARKING SPOT SOME ONE WHO WAS DRIVING OPPOSITE ME COULD HAVE HIT ME WHEN THE CAR ABRUPTLY STOPPED. LUCKILY THEY WERE GOING VERY SLOW AND STOPPED WHEN MY CAR STOPPED. THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF AS WELL AS THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BUT WHEN YOU PUT IT IN PARK AND START IT UP AGAIN THE ENGINE STARTS BACK UP AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS APPEAR. CAN YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS?
