The vehicle repeatedly shuts off in traffic and fails to restart automatically, requiring me to shift into Park, turn the vehicle off, and manually restart it. These incidents have occurred at traffic lights, on public roadways, and even on railroad tracks. On February 3, 2023, my vehicle shut off in traffic around 2:45 PM while I was picking up my niece and nephew from school. I was nearly rear-ended because the vehicle unexpectedly stopped operating.

I have attached both service reports: the initial report, which misidentified the problem, and the final report, which documents the correct root cause and repair. According to the final report, the warnings were caused by a short circuit in the airbag wiring. A broken metal wire from the driverâs seat support cage had pierced the wiring loom, causing the short circuit. Resolving t
