My 08 Ram stalls randomly when driving. It shut off two times in less than 10 minutes while driving. It did restart after the first time this happened. Im afraid to drive it with this problem. Do you know what this could be?

Thank you

This is one of the more difficult thing to trace down but I can give you the most popular items that can cause this,

1. crankshaft sensor
2. fuel pump
3. ignition switch
4. TIPM
5. MAP sensor

Lets run the codes to see which ones are stored that way it can give us a clue on the system that is failing.
