Description of the problem	More then a dozen times our vehicle has completely shut off while in motion going straight at various speeds causing loss of power steering and putting us in unsafe conditions. The a/c will blow hot air in half the vehicle and the radio has turned up the volume to full and the controls are inoperative to turn it down. I feel the dealer intentionally did not tell us about the known tipm issue and told us we had to replace the alternator which we did with no help in correcting the issue. This has been ongoing for a few months. I dont have the vehicle with me and am guessing on the mileage also this happened on multiple dates so i entered one of the random dated below.
