Engine shut down while driving

[85iltoy]

Twice while driving full speed my Maverick has completely shut down, no power, no indicator lights.
Was able to get to the shoulder of the road and restart the vehicle.
Dealer can’t find anything wrong.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I don’t know what to do at this point.

There is rumor of a hairline crack in the main power fuse. 300Amp or such.

Hit a bump, lose all power.
Hit another bump, regain power.

That would just interrupt the power from the DC-DC converter. You would simultaneously need that and a bad battery terminal connection to result in total power loss.

Yea I agree this is a safety issue and could have caused a serious accident if it happened in bad spot.

I seem to recall some post earlier in MY22 where some went dead going down the road. May want to do a search on this forum. Scarey

This vehicle shut down happened with driving on the interstate.

Iknow a motorcycle and a mavrick or no where near the same, however I had something similar happening on my Harley, Almost caused a major accident. The motorcycle would be running fine and all of a sudden the engine would turn off and all electronics would go out. Once ou were able to pull over could cycle the ignition and start right back up. Took to dealer several times was told nothing could be found. After almost running into oncoming traffic on a cross road they finally did a deep dive on it. Turned out that the Battery cable to the alternator was a little loose, as the motor heated up it would lossen up even more and start arching until it finally killed all the electronics.
