Hi:
It could be a few things causing it. What I recommend is to take the car to a nationally recognized auto parts store and have the computer scanned for problem codes. If the problem has happened more than once, I feel there will be a code saved.

Let me know what you find so I can further help you.

Joe
PS: Many of the parts stores will scan the vehicle at no charge.
