Was driving down the highway at 70 when the engine shut off. Now all I get is a click and won't turn over at all. Shows codes for all cylinder's misfire.

Was there any kind of noise before it shut off? Do the headlights come on? This can tell us if the battery has shorted out. Can you please upload a video of the engine when you try to crank it over, so that I can see what's going on?

In the meantime, please go over this guide:

I would put a breaker bar with socket on the front of the engine to see if you can turn the engine over by hand. Can you upload a video? Does the engine have oil in it? I need more information to help you.
