 Description of the problemVehicle was in heavy traffic moving approx. 5mph and stalled. Was able to stop and attempt to restart a couple of times and engine would attempt to start, but would quickly shut off as if engine was not receiving any fuel. Pushed vehicle to nearby parking lot and same thing, vehicle would crank make some sputtering sounds and shut off. Epc and engine lights on. Pressing accelerator did not help. This had occurred 3-4 times several months earlier usually when backing out of a parking lot after starting the car. Reported to dealer at that time and they said a code was seen , but they could not replicate the problem and car was fine. Those times the car was able to be restarted, this time not. Had towed to dealer and waiting for them to check again. Have strong safety concerns given stalling while in traffic.
