2015 SR viper XTX. Approx 400km now.

Last night when coming to a stop after a bit of a hill climb the engine just kicked out and stalled. No puttering of the engine first, just sounded like I turned the key off. I though maybe I slipped and hit the kill switch but couldn't have as all the dash was still lit up. No error codes, no warning lights. Turned it completely off, waited about 30 seconds and it started up perfectly, again no codes or warning lights.

Not really thinking there is an issue yet unless it happens again, but just curious if anyone else had this happen?

Just calling it an anomaly at this point, or anything you think I should be checking or concerned about? I'll be running it by the dealer next week when I go to pickup my apex I have in for some work.

Possible you lightly hit the kill switch just enough for it to die? I did that on a hill and bought the little plastic protector that keeps you from hitting it, like the one in the link below.

Thanks. I'll probably pick one of those up. In the meantime if it happens again I'll try to note my hand position just prior to it happening.
