While driving 85 MPH vehicle stalled. Vehicle has been serviced seven times due to stalling once the fuel gauge reached 3/8. The dealership was going to replace the fuel gauge again.

No visual indications of fuel leaking on ground. This also happened since on july 12, 2016 last time vehicle was fueled.
