vehicle has automatic transmission and while stopped at traffic light on hill in heavy traffic transmission shifted into neutral with no driver input! Vehicle would not respond to any input until it was shut off and restarted to reset ECU. Traffic trying to get around while I was trying to get to shoulder of road. The vehicle did it 5 more times before we got home. Last time we where almost hit from behind by a semi-truck because it shifted itself into neutral on a four-lane highway. I believe this is a programing issue with the computer controlled automatic transmission. I have called Polaris on this issue and was told there was not recalls on the vehicle. I am in the process of fighting for warranty on this.
