Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle is stalling and losing complete loss of power, very hard to steer vehicle. Occurs usually at low speeds, while turning or just driving straight. I have to place my vehicle in park & restart my engine. This has happened twice while i was turning in traffic & nearly collided with other vehicles with 3 small children in the car. I have requested for this to be diagnosed and researched several times by mechanics, but the defect has never been duplicated, resulted in a diagnosis, or resolved by a mechanic. It randomly occurs and just occurred again today in traffic, while turning left on an inside lane. I had cars behind and next to me. I had to come to a slow stop, but was unable to turn the wheel enough to remain in my lane, almost causing an accident. I feel this can result in a potentially fatal accident and want to report this immediately. I don't know what to do aside from seeking legal counsel at this point.
