Owner complaint summary

All of a sudden the car just died while driving it on the road at speed. There was no warning or indication of an issue. It just shook and then died. It would not restart. This is an egregious safety issue and should not happen on a vehicle with only this many miles. We could have been killed if we were on a highway. A quick google search shows this is a KNOWN issue. The mechanic said this is a know issue with this engine - Please get a recall out for 2019 before someone dies!!!!

This is an owner complaint filed with NHTSA (ODI #11754001). It is not automatically an official recall, investigation outcome, or manufacturer admission unless the complaint text itself describes one.
