    So i have a 2013 malibu lt which i had took to the dealer for a check engine light and ended up being that the cam shaft had to be replaced.

    Car dies without warning while driving. Restarts itself after a count of 3. Will die completely when standing still and all the lights and windshield wipers go off. The computer does not register the dying. I lose power steering if in a turn when it dies. It starts with the radio. Dealership can't find problem and can't seem to recreate it. No diagnostic trail to follow.

It happened when i spun tires on a icy road driving at about 35 miles an hour due to road conditions. It happened when i was driving down a dry pavement state highway at 65 miles an hour. A total of three times. Every time it was…
