I took the super chip tune off the car. I had an aggressive tune. I also used it to check for any codes.
I drove the car 250 miles today. So far no problems.
The car ran perfect.
Hmmmmmmmmmmm
Think you found the issue????
Aby shop should nhave a Tech 2 or SNAP-ON samething.

I'm not positive. The car ran well. I do miss the aggressive tune. The car shifts a lot smoother now.
Last month, the car stalled 3 times on a 2 hour road trip, the next day we drove for an hour with no problems. I have been doing more research on here, and I'm leaning towards a bad bcm. I'm just dumb founded that the car runs so strong and smooth and just shuts off on us

Try the Mode switch
I was having a similar problem, and although it only happened at low speeds/gears, I wasn't really driving on the Fwy much, so I don't know if it was the same thing. It took multiple trips to the dealership, but they were finally able to duplicate the problem, and they believe they traced it to the 'Mode' switch under the console. They replaced that, and it hasn't happened since. Since it was an intermittent problem, and seemed to happen more when it was cold, I don't know for sure that this was the issue, but so far so good. I realize this is an old post, but hopefully it will help someone with a similar problem in the future.
