I have the car listed above LX model. I've replaced the battery, had my alternator, and Starter checked. All good.
My car just keeps shutting off while it's running. I'm running out of options.
Please help.

Hi,

When it stalls, does it start right back up? I ask because it could be a fuel-related or ignition-related issue.

If there is a wait time for it to restart, there is a good chance the crankshaft position sensor is failing. Take a look through this link and let me know if anything mirrors what you are experiencing:

Let me know.

Take care,
