2006 Tucson shuts off sometimes when I pull into my driveway. It starts right back up and it doesn’t happen all the time. I have replaced the cam and crank shaft sensors with no luck.Any help would be appreciated.

You should have stored some codes. Start by having the ECU checked.

 Why did you choose to replace the cam and crank shaft sensors?

The cam shaft sensor was burned out and that didnt fix the problem so crank shaft sensor replaced, my mechanic is trying several things but it is starting to cost and not fixing the problem.

What is the ECU? The mechanics dont have a clue to the solution to this problem. It is a hit or miss and I dont want the cost anymore. Trying to figure out where to go next. Thank you

You need to find a new mechanic then, this one obviously doesn’t know what he’s doing if he’s just throwing parts at the car.

And the parts seem to be bouncing off.
