Reported at 100,000 miles, September 2019 Fire

I turned on my car in a parking structure and after a few seconds of driving my car begin jerking and suddenly turned off. The check engine light turned on. With a scan tool, I saw the I got codes for maf. I did some research and noticed that other cars are experiencing the same problem. I am upset because I continue having problems with my car. First I had the transmission prematurely go out and now I have a car that turns off when driving.
