Today my car cut off as I was driving. The display read hybrid system warning. It then proceeded to say for me to pull over and stop driving this happened to me 3 times over the weekend and I've read many other complaint about the same issue but no one seems to be able to find the problem I also replaced the alternator and that was a waste because right after that was serviced it happened again

Takata recall. Car has been saying "warning pull over do not drive" although I am in park in my driveway, in the car wash or on the freeway. Took into dealership 4 times now and they say drive it here next time with the warning on but the car freezes up and turns off which resets the warning display! the dealership is acting like nothing is wrong. Mileage this started is 58,000.
