Car stops un-expectantly while driving, this caused the car to turn off and not be able to steer, then it turns back on without warning. This results in not being able to control the car. This resulted in being hit by three cars. It looks like Lexus listed a notice, however we did not receive it, and were not aware of the notice. Waring lamps did come on please see pictures.
