ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE IN DRIVE MODE AND IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY, WHILE AT A STREET LIGHT AND WHEN TURNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. THEY HAVE IT AT THE DEALERSHIP NOW. I AM WORRIED THAT I AM GOING TO BE KILLED IN THIS CAR.
