Description of the problem	For over a year or so i have been having trouble with my car shutting off when i'm low on gas. It has stopped on me in the middle of traffic, stranded me on the side of the road and refused to start at service stations when i've stopped to get gas. I took my car to joe myers ford in august or september, 2019 but i couldn't leave it when i pulled away from the dealership it stopped on the feeder street of the frwy. And would not start. I was stranded there for over 2 hours before the car started again and i was able to drive home. A few days later i had it towed to joe myers ford. They couldn't get to it for a month or longer so i had to get it towed back to my home. Later it was towed from my home to sterling mccall ford. I got the car back and it still would shut off when i stopped or slowed down in traffic on a city street. It would just shut off. While i'm driving it starts to sputter then cut off but it won't start for awhile after that. This is frustrating because it is still happening off and on now for over a year. I have a 2 year child and i am really afraid for our lives. I have no idea when it's going to just shut off or not start and it is really dangerous for me and my child. When we bought this car it was new with 17 miles on it in february, 2017 but i am so afraid of driving it. Sterling mccall checked the car out for me and told me that they found nothing wrong but it still cuts off. Please help me.
