The car has completely cut out while driving at about 50 kph.This has happened four times now.It is a very late 2011 model,G type.
We purchased it in Japan ourself one year ago when it had done about 11,000kms .Now it is around 20,000Kms.The main EV battery has been in the range of 80% to 40% and there has been not other problems or fault lights come up.The temperature here has been about 18C or 64F so that is not too hot or cold. The dash and motor has complete cut out.The turning signal (indicators) did not work also and was rather dangerous when pulling off the road when the problem occurred.Once stopped on road side the car can be turned right back on with the start button as per normal.I have read on line that the 2012 had a recall for the push button start switch as it was binding.Has anyone experienced this kind of fault ?The button seems fine and seems not binding at all .Thank you.
