This car will stop running while driving. I can pull over & shut it off and it will start & run great. Sometimes I can go for a month or so before it happens again. Sometimes it will happen twice or more a day. I have had this car to the local Buick dealer & 2 other repair shops and know one can diagnose this problem. The repair shops say they can't it unless it acts up while they have it.

They are absoutley correct. New cars have too many sensors that can do something like that to guess or throw parts at it until it is fixed. Has it ever stored a code in the PCM?

Does vehicle always start right up or do you have to wait a few minutes?

Evidently not, if the dealer can't find problem.
