Before it went down, the car was shaking then low oil pressure light came on, then it died. Tried restarting it & it kept turning over, then it stopped like it was dead. Turned it off tried starting back up, nothing happened. No numbers or anything would come on the screen. Had to sit there for awhile. Started it up and begin to keep turning over & after the 3rd try it worked then came on the light low oil pressure with the picture of a can dripping
After I started going I was jerking back & forth, stop at a stop sign it'd die. Go up an incline, die. And I just had the oil changed a few weeks ago. Can't run the a/c or it starts to shimmy. Got the car in Feb.

check oil first then see if there is problem wit oil leaking then scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge auto parts rent it.you may have a compressor problem with a/c so have a pro check that out or it's a belt /tensioner problem as 60k is recommended replacement for both. which you didn't put your mileage down. but from your description I'd suspect that. if you are low on oil and pressure goes down the fuel pump will shut off.
