Does it cut off hard, like someone flipped a switch? Look for breaks in the battery wire harness, check terminals at battery for "opens", check for a bad ground. This is something a dealership would have checked, so if they didn't find it, it may be intermittent. sometimes you have to wait for an intermittent fault to turn into a hard fault before finding it. This is assuming the problem isn't in a module, which requires a dealer scan tool to find.
