Description of the problem	My car continues to stall and shut down while in motion. Extremely dangerous and terrifying when you're on a busy road and traveling at 30-35mph and you lose all power and your car stalls out. I have googled this issue and there are tons of complaints about this happening to many other people. Some while on highways. Some while at stop signs. We contacted our dealership yesterday and were told they can't see it for 2. 5 weeks, in the meantime just drive it. I don't think so. It is a deathtrap. I have a 17 year old daughter that i do not feel safe putting behind the wheel of this car, nor myself. My husband and i decided we would just drive it to the dealership anyway and we stalled out 7 times in less than a 1/4 of a mile. It was too dangerous at that point to drive the distance to the dealership so we turned around and got it back home. From what it looks like based on other complaints, people are being told they needed oil. We know for a fact ours does not. It's coming up on an oil change due date but my husband checked the oil status and we are not low, so that is not the issue. We told the dealership it is unsafe to drive and we need a loaner. He explained to us they don't give out loaners until they can run the diagnostics, in 2 weeks! I am terrified to drive this car. I stalled out 4 times the day before in traffic, in motion and at an intersection, with my children in the car! I have been stopped at a red light. I was crossing a bridge. I was in middle of making a bend. All of these instances, my car just shut down. The steering locks and i lose total power. After several attempts of trying to turn the car back on, it will eventually go, for now.

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.
