I bought the car in Jan of this year. I have had the car just cut out while I was driving but it would immediately take off again. I have noticed that it mainly does this when I run the ac. So even when it is 100 degrees outside, I cannot run the ac if I am driving very far. If the AC is running and the car cuts out, the AC does not work and neither does the temperature thermostat. I have to reset the clock. It started out doing once in a blue moon and it has become more common in the last month. Two days ago, it did this again. I was able to get it in and drive to Wal-Mart where it died and acted like it was not going to start. After I finished my shopping, I got into the car and it started and I drove it home. It ran fine even while I went through drive thru to get dinner. Once I got home and parked the car, it has not started since. The dash board lights come on but not the radio, door locks don't work.

Update from Jul 30, 2017: I to have my cousin look at my car because it was getting plenty of power but would not start. So we bought a new fuse for the run/crank fuse but it still did not work. So as he was checking the battery, he found a red fuse that had either been pulled out or had fallen out. Once he put that back in, all of the issues have stopped. I didn't know there were so many places that had fuses.
