I was driving on the access road getting ready to merge onto the highway. I proceeded onto the highway and made it into the middle lane going around 60 mph but shortly after my car threw itself into neutral and the dash lit up with three lines of words: The first line said 'service required', the second line said 'do not shift gears' and the last line said 'contact dealer'. I was able to pull my car over to the far left hand side of traffic. I turned off my car and turned it back on and it started with no issues. Since this incident though, I have had other electrical issues that have followed.
