ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

on two occasions (7/19/14 and 7/29/14), the engine cut-off, putting the car in "accessory mode." on both occasions, i was driving on a flat road, at low speed. there was no ability to drive the vehicle without completely stopping, putting the car in park, and restarting the car. as a result of being in accessory mode, i had no power steering and was only able to glide over to the side of the road. a message appeared on the car's screen: "transmission not in park, vehicle may roll." i purchased this vehicle 3 months ago. i am very concerned, and i don't feel safe driving this car. if this were to happen on a highway, there would certainly be a serious accident, as i would not be able to get the car to the shoulder. as evidenced in the gm ignition switch cases, when a car is switched into accessory mode while driving, the airbags are deactivated as well. should this happen on a busy roadway/highway, and there is an accident, there is the potential that it could be fatal.
