Car shuts off while driving; no code

Twice now, my ex-wife’s 2009 Civic Hybrid has simply shot off completely while she was driving it, as if the key had been turned off. Both times, the dealer says they can’t find anything wrong and no codes have been recorded. After the first time, I replaced the ignition switch (not the lock cylinder but the switch that clips to the back of it). This is very scary when it happens, because the shutdown is complete and with no warning. Has anyone heard of anything similar?
