Was driving down the road, cruise set at 70, and all a sudden the cruise kicks off like I canceled it. So I thought maybe I bumped the brake. So I gave it gas, and it acted like I never touched the gas pedal. No engine rev, nothing. Then it started rapidly down shifting like it was thrown over in sport mode. Then it shut itself off and won't start

----------

It was running perfectly fine b4 this. It really to me seemed exactly like what on star would do if someone stole it.

Seems like one of those major issues the 3.6di engine likes to come down with. Sounds like a tow. My only long shot of a piece of advice is to d/c and reconnect the battery and try again. This is your basic control alt delete troubleshooting that probably won't work but worth a shot while waiting for a tow. Good luck
