Thank you for your response. My question is I was driving and suddenly the engine shutt down. I pulled over and restarted and it worked eversince, but I wonder what was going? I just bought it two weeks a go; it has only 29000 miles and its model is 2007, so it is still relatively new. Why thing happened like that? It was scary because I had my 6 months old child in the car.

Please help.
Thank you

Okay, well with such an intermittent problem like that it is extremely hard to diagnose it. Especially if it has only happened once. It may have been contaminated fuel or a number of other things. Did you happen to notice if it was overheating when it shut off?

I was late at night and I was panic so I didn't know much at that time. But since the incident, I have observed the panel and nothing seemed wrong.
Everything was completly dark, the engine light or anything else didn't come up.
I have driven ever since and everything seems OK, I did put it in the dealer to check it out but they said if the engine light didn't come up, there is no way they can find the problems.
