CAR IS MOVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND SUDDENLY SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY AND STOPS. LUCKILY CAR BEHIND WAS ABLE TO STOP AVOIDING A REAR-END COLLISION. MY WIFE WHO WAS DRIVING DENIES TOUCHING ANY SHIFTING BUTTONS ON THE DASHBOARD. HOWEVER, DUE TO THE LOCATION OF THE START/STOP ENGINE BUTTON IT IS VERY POSSIBLE TO TOUCH THE STOP ENGINE BUTTON IF TRYING TO ADJUST THE RADIO OR CLIMATE CONTROLS WHICH ARE LOCATED ADJACENT TO THE STOP/START ENGINE CONTROL BUTTON. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW! WHILE YOU MUST DEPRESS THE BRAKE TO START THE CAR, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS BRUSH THE CONTROL BUTTON TO STOP EVERYTHING WHILE MOVING.
