Description of the problem	On monday, july 14, 2014, my wife rode her santa fe on a straight road accelerating slightly uphill when the engine stalled. On thurs. Dec. 5, 2013, i had a similar experience, which i reported to you at the time. This is the second time this has happened with this car. Again nobody touched the ignition key which has nothing hanging on it except the alarm and door lock dongle. My wife also suddenly lost power steering and power brakes, and luckily there was no other traffic, which could have caused an accident. She was able to bring the car to a safe stop and then was able to restart the engine and continue her trip. The 2010 car had a full tank of gas and has about 50000 miles on the odometer. It's awd and has a 6 cyl. Engine. Could this be related to the ignition switch problem that has plagued so many gm cars? Needless to say we are worried driving the car because if this incident occurs at high speed, a serious accident could be the result. Do you know of any similar experience? What do you advise?
