 Description of the problemDriving at approx. 30mph and suddenly the entire dash lit up, all red and yellow symbols along with a msg in the display to the effect of collision avoidance system inoperative, stop immediately. This may not have been the exact msg. At the same time the car decelerated to a stop almost immediately. Obviously i did not need to bring the vehicle to a stop. It felt like the deceleration of the engine being off but the car still in gear with that stopping the car. Did not use brakes to stop car. This was very sudden. The engine was not running after stopping because the tach was at zero. The dash stayed lit and the car was still in drive gear on the indicator. I pressed the button to put it in park and then with my foot on the brake pressed to start the engine. It restarted except now only the check engine light was lit. I drove to the dealer. Had this happened a few moments earlier on the freeway it could have been disastrous. Car is now at the dealer and they said they've never heard of this. This happened on a 3 lane each way local road. Waiting for diagnosis but still very dangerous in my opinion.
