NHTSA Complaint #11594938 — 2018 BMW X5

While driving moderately on suburban roads, the car suddenly jerked forward and stalled, and a warning came on indicating "drive train malfunction". The message said that continuing driving was possible and to contact dealer soon at convenience. Then, 30 seconds later while still driving, the car completely died. Engine died and car began coasting. Had to coast into a parking lot where the car came to a complete stop. Tried troubleshooting and turning the engine on and off for an hour; the car would turn on for a split second, stutter and growl as if it was out of gas (it was not), and then shut off. Car had to be towed (six hours later) and is awaiting inspection at dealer. Nothing at all indicated an issue prior to this happening; in fact, the car was just serviced at the dealer literally ten days ago. Incredibly unsafe and insanely frustrating experience to have the car randomly and without warning die while traveling in traffic.
