“Engine shuts down, service brake system message appears in display, ABS light illuminates. Since engine shuts down, lose steering and braking. Latest incident occured on highway during rush hour. This also happened first year I owned the vehicle (I bought it new), they replaced the underhood fuse box. This happened again on march 13. They replaced a blown PCM fuse and said they could find nothing wrong. When it occured on 3/29, I replaced the fuse 5 times to try and get off the freeway. After each time it was replaced, I could drive 1-2 miles before it would blow again.”

Was only able to turn off the HVAC system and stop the burning by disconnecting the wiring harness. Dealer had to replace the blower motor, resistor, module connector and relay. …”
