I PULL OVER AND WAS ABLE TO PRESS THE PUSH START AND THE VEHICLE STARTED AGAIN ABOUT 15 MINUTES LATE IT CUT COMPLETELY OFF AGAIN LOSING ALL POWER I END UP GETTING THE VEHICLE TOWED. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING TOW THE POWER CAME BACK ON THEN LOST ALL POWER AGAIN. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY BATTERY SO I PURCHASE A NEW BATTERY HOWEVER THAT WAS NOT THE CASE TRAVELING BACK HOW THAT SAME DAY IT CUT OFF TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY SCARING THE YOU KNOW WHAT OUT OF ME. I MANAGED TO MAKE HOME.
