Without warning the car completely shuts off. This is very dangerous because it happened on the freeway (luckily the cars slowed down behind me). It is intermittent and two different mechanics have not been able to detect the problem. Was there a recall on this issue? What can be done to make this vehicle safer to operate. This has been going on for about 2 years.

When I am driving the car straight down the road, the car engine cuts off and the steering goes rigid and difficult to steer a I glide and pull the car to the side of the road. This has happened probably 30 times over the past 3 years. Twice (when the car was only a year or so old) the shifting has just slid out of place into another gear by itself. This is so so so dangerous. I have taken my car in to a mechanic several times. They have "fixed"issues trying to fix the problem, but I spend money on"fixes" that do not resolve this terribly frightening problem.

Engine stalls, steering wheel/brakes/gas pedal all lock up and become inoperable while driving/in motion. I could be going 10 MPH or 50mph. Has happened on windy roads near my home as well as high traffic roads near work as well as on/off highway ramps. I've read hundreds of reports of this happening to my year make and model yet my VIN number has not been recalled? I only use my key fob (no others keys or key chains added). Purchased the vehicle used 3 years ago, has since had new transmission, new starter, and new battery trying to rectify this issue.
