    A factory security system won't make the car shut off. If you have something high-end and aftermarket that can immobilize the engine and it's installed wrong I guess that could do it, but not a factory system. Sounds like they just want money, shops will charge you a couple grand to replace the computer even though it's a $100 part used and it's about a 10 second swap.

    Nope. Not on the factory system as far as I know. I can't think of anything mechanical that would cause this problem though, there's gotta be some kinda crazy electrical issue somewhere...
