Happened twice within 10 days. At approx 25MPH accelerated to 30MPG, car shut off (stalled) was on local road & able to get to shoulder. Started up right away and no problem in between incidents.
Dealer can not replicate and I am afraid to take car back.
Any solutions or suggestions to replicate & prevent reoccurring?
