WITH THE VEHICLE IN MOTION AND NO WARNING LIGHTS ON, ALL ELECTRONICS SHUT DOWN EXCEPT FOR THE TURNING INDICATORS, ALONG WITH THE ENGINE. ACCELERATOR NO LONGER FUNCTIONED NOR DID THE BREAK ASSIST. AFTER PULLING OVER AND TURNING THE CAR OFF, IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN THROUGH TURNING THE KEY IGNITION. THE CAR REMAINED IN THAT STATE UNTIL I SHOOK BATTERY CABLES (WHICH WERE NOT LOOSE AND MAINTAINED FULL CONTACT BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER SHAKING). AFTERWARDS, THE CAR STARTED AS USUAL WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES NOW, ALL INSTANCES ENDING IN THE CAR POWER SHUTTING DOWN.

MY CAR WILL RANDOMLY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING WHEN IT GETS TOO HOT. THE STEERING LOCKS UP, ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON IN THE CAR (ENGINE LIGHT ETC.) AND I CAN'T DRIVE. IT STARTS WORKING AGAIN WHEN I TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. I ALREADY TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT IT HAS DONE IT SINCE I'VE TAKEN IT. IT HAS DONE IT WHILE DRIVING ON BOTH THE FREEWAY AND CITY STREETS.
