What owners wrote
Under normal operating conditions, my husband bumped the ignition key with his knee and the car turned off. He quickly figured out what had happened and pulled over and restarted it and we continued on.
While driving, the car will suddenly stop running. An warning light comes on saying"stop safely now". Brakes and steering are not affected so I can pull over to the side. Once the car is turned off and then restarted it will run normally.
