I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION, TURNING LEFT, AND MY VEHICLE JUST TURNS OFF. VERY UNSAFE FOR A CAR TO TURN OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. LUCKILY THIS DIDN'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. 2 OTHER INSTANCES, I WAS TURNING OUT ONTO A BUSY STREET, PULLING OUT OF THE GAS STATION AFTER FILLING UP. IT MAKES ME NERVOUS TO PUT GAS IN THE CAR AND WONDERING WHEN THE CAR WILL DIE OUT. THE SHUTTING DOWN OF THE VEHICLE HAPPENS AFTER EVERYTIME I PUT GAS INTO IT. ITS NOT AN ISSUE OF OVERFILLING THE TANK BECAUSE I,VE BEEN FILLING UP A VEHICLE GAS TANK FOR OVER 20 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE. EVEN IF I DON'T FILL IT UP COMPLETELY, THIS OCCURS. I HAVE HEARD FROM MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME YEAR CHARGERS. OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE HAVE SAID ITS THE VAPOR PURGE VALVE ON TOP OF THE GAS TANK.
