The vehicle may also be A vehicle stall without warning could increase the risk of a crash, especially at high speeds. This vehicle has been taken to a GM or Chevrolet service center twice for this problem. The first time, the fuel pump module was replaced. The second time, there was wiring that was bad that had to be traced down that was related to the fuel pump module failing. It has now happened a third time, while driving down the road, the vehicle suddenly shuts off. It has less than 5,000 miles on the engine. This vehicle has been out of service to the owners for an inordinate amount of time since ownership. It was in the shop 38 days the 2nd time. It is now taking a very long time with GM customer care for them to even find a place to work on it and to have it towed there. This has happened several times. I have created a log of events. I will enter the first time that this happened below and then provide other data.
