Description of the problem	Not so much a complaint but a statement car died while driving down the road with cruise control on due to my knee striking the ignition key, turning it back to the accessory" position as i moved my foot from the accelerator pedal to flat on the floor. This was simply operator error on my part. I' read the other complaints on engine dying, and almost didn't purchase this vehicle due to those, but upon further investigation on my part i felt fairly sure reported problems could be operator error rather than an actual electrical issue. This was only my opinion buy based on my actual life experience, the car died while going on the road was due to my own action. I will note that i had zero problems controlling the car after the engine shut off. I simply steered over to the shoulder, put the car in park and restarted it. I probably could have just as easily put the car in neutral and restarted it while coasting on the road. If others get to voice their complaints on this issue i feel i should be allowed this statement on that same type of event so that consumers investigating this vehicle can make more of an informed decision about purchasing one. Additionally, my solution to this problem was to simply move my seat back; i am 6'3" and i was simply unnecessarily crowding myself. I will also point out that we had just purchased this car 2 days ago, so still getting use to it.*ak
