same thing 3x. Drive for 1/2 mile and it says warning - pull over immediately. Overheating. And then it just stops wherever you are. I’ve had the engine replaced, too.

You need to take it to a mechanic. Overheating it three times may have killed your replacement engine. Are you checking your coolant and oil levels weekly or every fill up, which ever comes first?
