On the highway. Started to snow, road mildly slick, switched to 4WD Lock. ASC OFF and Service Required! Light came on. As I was slowing down to get off the highway just moments later, the engine shut down. Luckily, as I was at the end of the ramp, I put the hazards on, pulled over, restarted the engine and the warning lights went off. Seemingly, nothing else went wrong. Went straight home and have not been back out yet. Thoughts?
