ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE
THE ENGINE HAS COMPLETELY SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING OR WHEN AT A STOPLIGHT. THIS HAS OCCURED AT LEAST 3 TIMES IN THE 8 MONTHS WE HAVE OWNED IT. ALL ENGINE POWER AND ELECTRICAL POWER GO OFF COMPLETELY WHEN IT OCCURS. WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID, "LET ME GUESS, IT'S BEEN QUITTING ON YOU". THAT PISSED ME OFF BECAUSE THEY KNEW ABOUT IT BUT DIDN'T NOTIFY ANYONE OF THE POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING EFFECTS IT COULD HAVE. IT'S OBVIOUSLY HAPPENED TO A LARGE NUMBER OF OWNERS AND WHEN YOUR TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND THE ENGINES QUITS IT MAKES BRAKING NEAR IMPOSSIBLE.
