Car stalled while driving on interstate almost causing a crash. Dealer says it was camshaft and crank sensors charged me $609. 00 to repair. Car had only 86,261 miles and should not have electrical problems. No recall on something that can cause car to shut off? currently having to get the fuel tank pressure sensor replaced costing another $250 not including installation. Current mileage is only 106k.
