Default crossfire will not start and will shut down while driving

Crossfire would not start however, engine fan and other electronics working when key is turned. Jumped the battery and it started. Two days later, it shut down while driving. After a few minutes it started.

Start by searching "Mystery No Start" - the RCM ( Relay Control Module ) fix.
If that does not fix it, then replace the CPS ( Crankshaft Position Sensor ) with a Bosch one.

Not a chance. All that does is work with the remote lock/unlock feature, nothing to do with the car running or not.
