While driving to work on I35 the a red message popped up on the dash saying "Stop Safely Now" and the engine/hybrid motor instantly completely died. Steering and breaking were almost impossible because I am not a strong person and I was nearly rear ended several times. I had no chance to get to the shoulder and was blocking the lane in the middle of traffic till I was able to get someone to tow it to a side street. Completely unacceptable and very dangerous for the car to die completely like this.
