MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN TURNING OFF LATELY, WHILE IN TRAFFIC, MAKING TURNS OR PARKING. MY CAR LOSES RPMS, THE LIGHTS DIM, AND THEN THE CAR CUTS OFF. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN IT OFF, AND RESTART THE ENGINE AND PROCEED ON TO MY DESTINATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO BE REPEATEDLY OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS, I DON'T FEEL SAFE BEING IN MY TRUCK.
