Engine shuts off in the middle of driving and says starting disabled due to electric throttle control, reduced engine power, ABS traction control off. This happens while moving at the correct speed on the highway, stopped at a stop light in the city, and while making turns. Sometimes when it happens I lose power steering and have almost O control of where my car goes. At first this only happened about once a week, but now it can happen up to 10+ times a day

I have been having startup issues with my car. When trying to start the car, it makes a clicking sound and will not turn on. I have to jump start my car witb a halo portable charger, every single time I want to drive it. Sometimes my car cuts off and loses power while I'm driving which has almost caused me an accident twice! my car has randomly cut off in motion while I was on the highway, approaching an intersection, and on a rural road in another city. I have called before and was told to file a complaint online. This issue started happening a year ago but only occasionally. Now this happens frequently. I assumed I had a bad battery or alternator or starter, so I replaced all three parts, including spark plugs, wires and air filters. I'm still having the same issue and need this resolved. I need transportation to get to and from work and do not deel safe driving it especially during the winter months, when it randomly cuts off. Please help resolve this issue. I am a long time Pontiac owner and do not want to get rid of a fully paid for car if the issue can be resolved by your company.
