It would cut off and will not start with everything going blank thought it was the battery got a new one to replace the old one but still doing the same thing then the power steering light will come on sometimes when driving and we put in a new alternator thinking that it would solve the problem that didn't work still cuts off and won't start until 15-20 minutes had it checked by a mechanic and they couldn't find the problem scared to drive it do to having my kids in the car with me or going to work and it happens…
