Variably the engine stalls without warning,rendering the ps brakes to become inoperable, extremely dangerous for me as I am 78 years old.there have been times when this has occurred there was no shoulder of the road to pull off,leaving the car in whatever lane it stalled in! It takes anywhere from 5 min to 1/2 hour to restart very very frustrating and dangerous to other travelers and to me! Something desperately needs to be done about this!
