Driving the car at 10 mph then it stops and says place car in park then drive on the dash IN DRIVE basically the car stalls out and it does it randomly now no codes went off no check engine light just randoms stops also had the car in eco mode both times when it has cut off
My headlamps periodically shut off while driving, which results in a potentially dangerous situation. I am told that the electronic control system module regularly malfunctions on these vehicles resulting in a situation where lighting at the front of the vehicle turns off. This condition has happened not only while stationary but also while moving.
While slowing down from about 40mph to about 20mph to make right hand turns, engine shifts very roughly from 3rd to 2nd to 1st and after completing the right turn remains stuck in low gear and does not shift as accelerator is pressed. Almost stalls, but after a few seconds, the normal shift pattern resumes. This has happened intermittently a few other times, such as approaching a red to green traffic signal. When approaching red light, I decelerate to stop but don't make complete stop as light changes to green, car downshifts into 1st gear but wont upshift smoothly into 2nd/3rd gear when re-accelerating the vehicle.
