Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)WHILE DRIVING THE CAR IT CUTS OFF WHILE IN THE DRIVE GEAR. THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES, TWICE WHILE DRIVING ON THE BELTWAY ALL WITHIN A 3 WEEK PERIOD. I HAVE E TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND WAIT ABOUT 2 MINUTES THEN START IT UP AGAIN. I WAS SCARED TO DRIVE THE CAR AFTER THE SECOND TIME STOPPING ON THE BELTWAY, SO I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE SHOP. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND STRESSFUL NOT KNOWING WHEN THE CAR WOULD STOP AT ANY GIVEN TIME. THE DEALER HAD TO REPLACE THE COMPUTER IN THE CAR AT A COST ON $690.00, FROM ME. I THINK THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND THAT I SHOULD BE COMPENSATED FOR THIS AMOUNT. IF THIS MODEL NEEDS TO BE RECALLED THEN IT SHOULD BE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. I WILL BE WRITING THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU ALSO TO FILE A COMPLAINT. I GET MY MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE ON A REGULAR BASIS. I'M GLAD THAT I WAS NOT SERIOUSLY HURT WHEN THIS CAR STOPPED ON THE BELTWAY. MY CAR WAS REPAIRED ON JULY 16,2016, AT ANDERSON OF HUNT VALLEY, 10125 YORK ROAD, COCKEYSVILLE MD 21030. PHONE # 410-403-1300. THEY DID A GREAT JOB IN REPLACING THE COMPUTER, NOW I NEED TO BE COMPENSATED FOR MY $690.00. THANKING YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR TIME AND COOPERATION.SINCERELY [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
