Ignition switch won't engage starter. Dealer claimed I needed to have keys reprogrammed. $320 charged. 2 days later same problem. Vehicle sat in shop for a week. Dealer can't find problem. While driving home from dealer vehicle ignition shuts down causing hard steering and rough braking. Vehicle back in shop for 8 days. Car has been in for repairs 3 times since 8/28/14 for intermittent no crank/no start and system shut down while driving. Service manager says nothing wrong! Vehicle is now parked awaiting solution

So far, three visits to mechanic, here are the notes from the first two visits, don't have notes from third, and just had vehicle towed back to shop after vehicle cranked but won't go issue.
First visit:
Performed diagnostic scan, found codes for injector control circuit for injectors 2, 4 and 6 cylinders. Also a code for engine misfire. Checked injector circuits and found bad connections at injector harness connector. Repaired bad connection at injector harness connector, found bad connection at main harness connector for engine wiring harness, repaired connector. Test drove vehicle after above repairs, vehicle runs good and the check engine light did not return. Performed code scan and there are no codes present in computer memory.
Second Visit:
Checked for engine misfire, cylinders 2-4-6 misfiring. Performed diagnostic scan, codes for cylinder injector circuit events present in memory. Performed circuit pin tests from PCM plug to injector plug-ins. Resistance is within normal limits at 12.9 Ohms. (Limits are 11 to 14 Ohms). This confirms that there are no problems with injectors or wiring. Problems are in PCM. Removed and replaced PCM and programmed.
Odometer is non-operable
