| Description of the problem | The engine died while coming to a rapid stop from about 35-40 mph. All the lights on the instrument panel turned yellow. After putting the transmission park the engine would not restart. After numerous attempts, removing and replacing the key, and about 2 to 3 minutes the engine did start. I was unable, after a few attempts, to reproduce the problem. We took the car to the dealer. They stated that they had not seen this problem. They did, however, perform a software update in the hope that it would solve the problem. |
