Description of the problem	I explained the previous evening i noticed steering did not seem right and i had to push on gas more to get the car to have power. I mentioned this to my husband in case it was time to check spark plugs and get a tune up. The next morning i went through a car wash and started a 30 mile commute. While driving 65-70 mph on a highway the vehicle lights and all power shut down without warning. The only thing working was the radio. No brakes, steering was different. Thankfully this time was able to pull to a shoulder and coast to an offramp. I coasted to a stop, put in park then tried to start. The vehicle started again and i drove straight to the dealership 4 miles away. I explained to the dealer and also called the maker of the vehicles recall dept. They opened a case. At this point no one has any idea what happened and the issue is intermittent. They cannot replicate and i have not had my car for 6 days. I have researched that i am not the only one this has happened to and most people become a middle man between the dealer, the warranty company, and no resolution is ever made. Many became frustrated and sold and cut their losses. They continued to drive the vehicle and it continued to happen. I am not clear on the statistics but i read one blog that stated this incident has caused 2 accidents. I have survived cancer and i have 3 chilldren. I cannot consiously drive the vehicle again. I am thankful this did not happen driving uphill on a dark mountainside. We had planned a trip to la that had to be cancelled due to lack of safety. I am starting an uphill battle or i will be forced to sale. If so many people have had this issue since 2006 why hasn't there been a resolution. People get the computer fixed only for it to happen again which tells me the computer itself is faulty. I am not sure what to do and i am desperate to resolve the situation. It will put us in danger.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
