Description of the problem	I was driving down the road when all of a sudden my car felt like it pulled back then just shut off in the middle of the road thankfully there wasn't a car behind me or there would have been a serious accident. After a few tries the car started, so i drove it home then the next morning i took it to the dealer. They stated after getting it back to me 2 days later that there wasn't a code, so they'd cleared the check engine light and gave it back to me. The following week i'm driving down the main road on my way home from work and the car does the same thing. This time it was really scary, because it was rush hour and i almost got hit by a car. I attempted to start it several times then sat for a bit with the four ways then tried it again. It started up and i drove it right to the dealer. I was so shaken it took a few minutes before i finally let them know what happened again. I left the car with them then the next day they called me to come get it. I went in where they told me that it had been the crankshaft sensor that had caused the problem. I'm truly afraid to drive my vehicle i keep wondering if it will happen again. I never had problems with my used cars, but i got a new car thinking i wouldn't have to worry about anything and now i have to worry about this car turning off in the middle of the highway.
