 Description of the problemWhile driving, on any road and any speed, the vehicle goes into neutral and the stop switch engine off indicator appears. This requires me to pull over to the side of the road, place the vehicle in park and turn off the ignition. I remove the key, replace it, and then attempt to start the vehicle again. It may start immediately, or it may take several times turning the key from the on to off to on position before it works again. At times, when it does start, and i put it into reverse or drive from park it may stall again. Eventually, i am able to place the vehicle into drive and resume my journey. The malfunction visit workshop display appears soon after and remains. Took to service and they updated 3 software programs nevertheless, the three software updates did nothing to remedy the serious problem. On july 4, 2015 (just 2 days after the vehicle was given back to me by the service department my family (my wife and my two girls ages 11 and 9) and i were driving. As i was driving on the highway, going at approximately 50 mph, the vehicle stalled. There was no shoulder or break down lane to pull over to. It was a very frightening and dangerous experience. While we stood still, as i tried to get the vehicle started (more than 6 times), other cars came very close to striking us at 50 mph. There was an obvious danger for morbidity and mortality. While on that busy highway, i had to go through the steps of turning the vehicle off and on again multiple times before it was able to be driven. It then stalled approximately another 13 times. Fortunately, i was able to bring it home by driving carefully on side streets with my hazards on.
