| I was driving at 70 mph on us290. without warning, the engine suddenly shut down and the dashboard display went blank (except for the navigation system). i was unable to restart the car. there was a message to check the acv system. i tightened the gas tank cap and was able to restart. a complete shutdown without warning is very dangerous. *tr | |||
