Identical issue as found with the federal safety agency # 10908927 vehicle stalls while driving and cannot be restarted without putting the vehicle in park. Purchased the vehicle used with 170,000 miles on it. Carfax shows great care into the vehicle, however within first 24 hours after purchase have found it to stall while driving and at idle near 6x. Have taken to auto repair shop/autozone/used ifixit code finder and nothing is found. This has created hazardous driving conditions as it will happen at random.

After 3 hours of driving as I was approaching a red light, began braking the vehicle stalled. (21000 miles) after stopping I turned the key to off and then on but the vehicle did not start. I tried a second time and the vehicle started but RPM's were sporadic. After a few minutes everything leveled out and drove fine for the remaining 3 hour drive. The check engine light has been off and on since stalling with 5 visits to the dealer for correction. I now have 29000 miles on the vehicle. The dealer has replaced o2 sensors, replaced the gas cap, reprogrammed the computer and said there was nothing wrong and cleared the failures but not 10 minutes from leaving the dealership the check engine lights come back on. It has been 8000 miles and stalling has started happening more frequently.
