While driving at freeway speed (65) the engine would just lose power with no warning!! Its been to the dealer three times now for this same issue. Now no one in the family wants to drive the car. Its just too nerve racking to guess when the car will lose power, or trust it for a long trip. The last time this happen we were almost hit by a truck as we were trying to get to the side of the road. *kb
