3 Engine Shut Off Without Warning problem

Failure Date: 03/18/2008

2005 Buick Rendezvous stalling. On 4 occasions to date this vehicle has stalled on me. The first time I was going 70 mph on the highway and it just shut down completely. I almost was rear ended. I managed to get it to the side of the road. It started back up. The next time I was in a school zone going about 10 mph turning a corner and it went dead. It started back up. The third time I was slowing down to stop at a light and it stalled. It started back up. This is very worrisome and I would hate to think of the accident that could happen due to this.
