Consumer Description

Happened twice within the last three months. The first time I was driving at a speed between 45-50 mph and vehicle shutoff with instruments reading vehicle must be placed in park depress brake and start engine. After coasting to a safe area to stop the vehicle seemed to have shifted into park just before a full stop and abruptly and aggressively stopped. Depressed brake and restarted then vehicle displayed same message again and shutoff, this time it would not restart. Inspected under hood for an obvious problem, did not find anything. After about 20 minutes vehicle started and was able to continue on with no problems until weeks later when vehicle again shutoff while driving. This time while driving around 70 mph on highway. Was able to coast to stop in emergency lane. This time the instrument panel displayed a TPWS error with no input to all tires. Tried to restart after coming to abrupt stop. Push to start had no power nor did anything inside the vehicle. After about 45 minute the depress brake and push to start symbol illuminated and vehicle started. Was able to make it home about 4 miles away the vehicle shutoff pulling into driveway. Loosing power at 70 mph is not a good feeling.
