Angry Car died on the Highway!! (Again)

So last night coming home from work I was cruising along at 70mph in the center lane, when all of a sudden, no power, gauges go to 0. So after avoiding getting rear ended, i coast to the shoulder and call roadside. Since this is the SECOND time this has happened I know whats probably wrong. Bad computer again. My question after all of this is: Is there something causing the computer to fry? I am sick of this and worried that the next time it happens I will not be able to avoid an accident. Thanks for your help.

Woah dude....not cool. So you had the BCM replaced once already? If so, I definitely bet there is something else going on. Thankfully, that's what warranties are for. Let me know if you need anything.

That's 'cuz you shoulda bought a Redline! :P

So I figure that it's running now? What did you do? Just pull over and then restart it? Did you hit a pothole or anything? Hopefully, if it happens sometime and you do get into an accident, you shouldn't be found at fault.

Nope, its at the dealership. No pothole, just crusing and all of a sudden it dies. Coast to the side of the road and try and re-start it. The engine turns over, but its obvious there is no fuel getting to the engine. Same thing it did last time. It has only been a month since it did this last time, I had the PCM replaced then and it seemed to fix it until now. This car spends more time on a flatbed than it does on the road!! And I just checked according to the "Ohio Lemon Law" I dont qualify for a lemon. I am goin to need some good lawyering to get a new one.
