I AM 88 YEARS OLD AND DEPEND ON THIS VEHICLE ( OUR ONLY VEHICLE) AS MY TRANSPORTATION FOR MYSELF MY SON AND MY 15 YEAR OLD GREAT GRAND DAUGHTER. MORE TIMES THAN I CARE TO REMEMBER THIS CAR HAS STALLED OUT ON ROUTE 50, WHERE I WAS TRAVELING 50 TO 55 MILES AN HOUR. I LIVE ABOUT 1 HOUR AWAY FROM OCEAN CITY, MARYLAND. EACH TIME IS TERRIFYING. SOMETIMES IT ONLY TAKES A FEW MINUTES TO RESTART AND THEN THERE ARE TIMES WHERE IT HAS TAKEN OVER AN HOUR. THE LATEST EVENT WAS 6/14/2017. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR A YEAR. THIS PROBLEM ONLY OCCURS WHEN IN MOTION. THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW TIMES WHEN IT DID NOT START FOR A WHILE BUT IT IS TERRIFYING WHEN IT STALLS OUT ON THE HIGHWAY.
