| Description of the problem | 2 times already i have had to take my car into the dealership because it would shut off randomly while driving. This has happened while on the highway and also while on busy streets. So far i have been able to drift to the side of the road, put the car in park and then turn the car off and back on. The car sputters when restarting and on multiple occasions will stall again. Both times they tried to blame it on the oil change being overdue. The 2nd time i had to have the car towed to the dealership and they stated there was no oil in the car. How a car loses oil if there isn't a leak, i'm not sure. This is now the third time it is happening and based on the car's computer i still have 30% to go before needing an oil change and the car is shutting off on me again randomly. I was at the dealership for the 2nd time less than 3 months ago. I drive in miami and have been lucky that my son was not in the car with me. |
