On two occasion vehicle abruptly shuts down leaving me with no control of vehicle. 1st incident, i was turning corner when car made a loud screeching noise and completely shut down, i had no control over breaks or steering. Car sat for several hours before i could start it up, i did attempt to drive it down the street. I called to have vehicle looked at by dealership. They were unable to duplicate what happened. I received car back drove it for 2 weeks and then same thing happened, this time I was on a busy road when it shut down making loud screeching noise. I let vehicle roll while i struggled to pull over. I had no control over vehicle something is triggering vehicle to shut down. I am very concerned this will continue happening and it could result in a serious injury or fatality. Dealership as of today has no resolution to this problem, they still have my vehicle in their shop.
