Vehicle continues to shut down in moving traffic. It's been at the dealer 6 times, for up to 7 days at a time and they have been unable to duplicate concern or diagnose problem. I feel it's a real safety issue when the car shuts down in moving traffic with no warning. Car starts up after completely stopping, putting it in park turning the ignition off and restarting it. There are no warning signs. The problem appears to be in the electrical because the car looses all power. No lights on the dash, no power steering etc. What is a reasonable lenght of time for this to be corrected?
