The vehicle shuts off while in motion, happend more than 10 times already but the car started up I took the car to the dealer 3 times already for this problem problem started around March 2003, this last time I took the vehicle to the dealer they tell me "oh the other mechanic didn't know how to fix it", "and the problem is fixed and "shouldn"T" happen again.
