| Intermittent problem occuring almost exclusively at highway speeds. while driving at highway speeds suddenly, without warning, the vehicle shuts off. all warning lights on the dash board appear, engine completely shuts off which leads to power steering failure and loss of safe control of the vehicle. while the engine shut off is intermittent and does not last for more than a few seconds before it turns back on without use of the key or any other means of manually restarting the vehicle, it is highly unsafe and can lead to severe injury or death. we have noted this issue occuring approximately 1-2 times per month. we finally took the vehicle to the dealership to service and locate the issue with the vehicle on october 20, 2011. the dealership stated they could not find any issues with the vehicle, with the exception of unusally high oil consumption. the dealership advised we do an oil consumption test which will be completed in 3000 miles or 3 months. | |||
