Description of the problem	I was driving home and at a red light when my rav4 started to shake and feel as though it was going to stall out. Everything shut down and i was unable to move. I received the following error on our display, "charging system malfunction". After a few seconds i was able to turn my vehicle on and proceed through the intersection. Approximately one minute later it started to stutter again. I was able to make it to my driveway before it turned off and lost power. I informed my husband what had happened and he took the vehicle out to see if the same error would occur. Within five minutes into his drive the vehicle shut off. We had it towed to our toyota dealership, as we just purchased this rav4 brand new nine months ago. The service department conducted multiple tests and informed us that everything was fine. It is a little unnerving to know that the vehicle i drive could completely turn off, potentially on a busy highway. The risk for serious injury or death, to me or my family, is high if this occurs. Again, to recap, the vehicle shut down while stopped at a red light and also when it was in motion.
