Consumer Description

Engine shutoff suddenly while driving, mainly on freeways & roads that have long downhills, while foot is off the gas pedal. But it happens on flat roads also. The stability control lights comes on, & I have to pull over with residual speed put suv in park, turn engine button off & wait for seat to return to neutral position then restart. This had happened at least 12 times & mostly in dry conditions while driving straight with no lane changes. Dealer could not duplicate & find the problem, visited them 4 times so far. Otherwise it will not start the engine.
