Drivng approx 40mph when engine just shut off like it ran out of gas (full tank-only 25 miles on that tank used). Would not restart, sounded like it wanted to catch, but couldn't. Towed to dealer-nothing found. 8 hours later, car idling in driveway when it sputtered and died. Restarted after a few minutes, taken to dealer, nothing found. Nlm.
