Description of the problem	While driving this vehicle, sometimes at highway speeds, the engine will stall. While all interior accessories stay energized, the engine does not attempt to restart. This has happened dozens of times and the vehicle has been to the dealership for this issue three different times. This issue did not start occurring until the touchscreen stopped working and the dash display started showing in german along with the vehicle not starting. I had it towed into the dealer where they had it for two weeks. They replaced the telematics gateway control module, several relays, and the battery. After this repair is when the above issue started happening. This is outright dangerous and has left my wife (her vehicle) stranded now three separate times. I understand the dealer is trying to recreated the issue when i take it to them, but they have not been able to get the vehicle to do it when they have it in their possession. I honestly believe that they are only driving the vehicle around the block and calling it good. This stalling has happened on city streets and at highway speeds. I just want my wife and child to be safe and i don't feel that is the case here. I will be looking to trade vehicle in if this issue cannot be figured out. I am also angry that i am paying on a piece of junk that spends more time in the shop than being driven.
