Description of the problem	I was driving my car and engine just cut off completely with no system warnings or anything. Initially, i thought this was a fluke and something i had done. Car started back immediately. As a result, i thought nothing else of it until the car did the same thing again while i was stopped at a red light later the same day (again there were no warning lights on control panel. This has occurred on 2 other occasions. Car was taken to repair shop were nothing was found wrong. Since then i have had trouble with the positive battery cable connection. Unsure if the two are related. Needs further investigation as this is potentially dangerous.
