Description of the problem	My car has stalled several times this past week without warning or indication that anything is wrong. The vehicle will suddenly stop and lose power completely while i anxiously try to restart it. It has put me at risk with other drivers where i've had to put my hazards on and hope vehicles are able to stop in time so they don't hit me. I've taken it in for service and they can't seem to replicate the problem. The car is a safety hazard and no one seems to be helping me. I found information online about hyundai getting slapped with a class action suit for the same problems i'm reporting, but the suit appears to only cover 2010-2012 models, mine is 2008. I don't know what to do!
