The alternator is designed to keep the car running if the battery is bad. Plus he said it restarted after a few minutes with no issues. A bad battery wouldnt allow a restart if it had died during driving, it would need a jump.

I still vote for the ignition switch.
Symptoms are the same if she would have turned the key off while driving.
Honest question, could she have hit the key and not realized it while messing with her phone or doing anything besides just driving? Just a thought

Did she experience any loss of time ?
Was she near Groom Lake ?
Sounds like an episode of X-Files to me

We had something similar happen once to our 2004 Civic. Never happened again over a period of 15 years (sold in 2019). Driving on highway, straight & flat stretch, engine died, needles dropped, lights out. Came back on almost instantly, and kept driving. Another car was passing us when it happened, almost as though there was some sort of electrical interference.
Ignition switch.
Does she have a ton of junk on her key ring ?
That’s what was causing the GM cars to switch off
Chicks have time of junk on the key chain and when you hit a bump it can turn the key just enough to kill the power

I've owned a 2010 Honda Fit since new in December 2009. Never had a operating or unsafe issue since day one.
