Why does car shut off?

While driving my 06 STS 3.6L home the other day it shut completely down. No engine or electricals. It did this 5 times. Each time I pulled over and it started right up. The next day it started right up and drove like normal. Been working fine for a week now.

start with a fuel pressure check. it may be seizing and if that the case, the fuel pump will have to be replaced.
