I purchased my vehicle october 31'st 2019 from a local dealership. The milage was about 74k miles. I have only had this vehicle for a few months. My concern is the following. While driving, at least 7 to ten times the vehicle completely stalls. In other words it completely stops. The steering wheel locks. All power is lost. No lights no nothing. This has happened at intersections, it has happened when turning left, it has happened when turning right. It happens when we are yielding.
