CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT. ALL LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD FLASHED. ABS BREAKS WAS MOST DOMINATE ISSUE BEING FLASHED AFTER OTHER LIGHTS SETTLED. CAR WOULD NOT START FOR 4 HOURS. VERY DANGEROUS SINCE IT SHUT OFF DURING MOVING. LUCKILY AT A LOW SPEED. DEALER SAID IT WAS LOW VOLTAGE FROM BATTERY. THEY DID NOTHING. THEY TOLD ME VOLTAGE WAS LOW ON A DIAGNOSTICS TEST THEY DID. TOLD ME NOT TO USE RADIO WHILE CAR IS OFF. THIS STILL IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE IT SHOULD HAVE CHARGED FULLY AFTER MY RIDE.
