Consumer Description

Vehicle engine shut off while driving down the highway. Traveling on 74 and while still in drive the engine abruptly shut off. Vehicle was started again and then it again shut off a couple miles down the road. When the vehicle was started a 3rd time it immediately went into limp mode. I was stuck on the side of the highway with vehicles going 70MPH around me. On my way to the dealership the car shut off multiple times potentially killing me multiple times. After 60 days at the dealership they said they fixed the problem. I drove the car 4 miles and it shut off on me on the highway again. I had a car almost crash into me along with trying to start the car and get off to a safe location. I still do not know what is going wrong with the vehicle but this could of killed me and others..... this needs to be addressed along with the fact they gave me the vehicle back just for it to do it again.
