Description of the problem	My 2015 forester stalled while driving in the middle lane on the nj parkway (going about 65-70mph.) there were no warning lights or any indications that this would happen. I had about 3/4 of a tank of gas left. When the car stalled, it felt like it downshifted and then completely stopped - almost as if we ran out of gas (but we didn't). The electric (lights, radio, heat) was on the whole time. We were stalled for about 15-20 minutes until the cops came. We put the car in neutral and they bumped us to the shoulder. While waiting for a tow truck, we tried to start the car again and it worked (about 30 minutes after the initial stall.) we then drove to the nearby gas station and filled up the car; it took 12 gallons of gas and i have the receipt. The subaru service center cannot find the issue. They said the computer isn't even showing a stall code. This could have been a fatal accident and i want to know exactly what is wrong and know it is fixed before i drive it again. It looks like other owners have had the similar issues.
