| Description of the problem | I recently purchased this car from cactus jacks during easter weekend 2018. With in the first week while driving the engine shut off while in motion but coming to a stop. I thought it was weird and that it may have been user error. To date it has done the same thing about a dozen times. It occurs while in motion while slowing down to either stop or turn. It has been on a city street. Traffic conditions vary. The gauge panel lights up as if the key is in the on position, and it almost feels as if the engine is still running but its not moving. And it also doesn't seem like a transmission issue because the transmission doesnt have any problems any other time. |
