Ignition was sticking.driving at 55 going to turn headlights on, there are none. Pull over turn car off and keep restarting.wipers the same. Brought in for repair. Told ignition sticking.replace at my cost. Never tried while driving but experimented at a stop. If car is running and you lightly touched ignition...car would shut off.this I assume would also happen when driving. I was quite a few customers were bringing in their car with this problem.
