    My wifes CR-V has twice in the last few weeks simply had the engine
    cut out
    on her while driving. She has restarted the vehicle (after managing to
    get it
    pulled off to the side of the road with the power cut of...) with no
    problem
    after each incident.

    No warning lights, no error conditions... nothing.

    All the power items continued to function normally (including
    steering and brakes).

    No it is not running out of gas.

    We took it to the dealer where we bought it 6 months ago, and they
    say they
    can find nothing wrong with it.

    Anyone have a similar experience?

    Advice?

    Sounds somewhat similar to a few of my experiences many years ago when my
    fuel line froze, one clogged filter, and then one busted carburetor. I
    would check the fuel system. Anything else, the cpu should pick it out with
    a check engine light.

    Do a google search for honda ignition switch recall. You'll see the
    symptoms sound exactly the same. Sure, it's a whole different generation
    of CR-V, but it could be you've got a bad switch. It's really scary in
    traffic.

    How old is your CRV? The pre 2002 had a problem like you describe.
