Engine shut down while entering highway but all lights still work, i was barley able to coast to side. electronic throttle control is the issue according to my dash symbols. i have looked online and see lots of these problems. this has now happened 3 time in 2 days. when i try to restart i get the etc error symbol on my dash, car just keeps trying to turn over but cannot. i have been able to start the engine usually after 15 min of sitting. i have not went to the dealer yet. i was hoping to find a recall since my warranty was only for 36000 miles. *tr
