“Several times now. While driving the car (AC normally on), we will get to a full stop from driving (over ~40 min trips)... Whether in traffic on a freeway or stop sign...

Turning off and on the car does not reset it... It takes repeat effort and several minutes (once over 10 minutes) to be able to start up. Can't imagine if it were to happen on a freeway again with a child or my other half in the car! Scary! …”
