It will crank but just won't turn over and when it does, it will run for about 15 min. And then just stop. I have replaced about everything under the hood and still nothing. My machanic have it for a week and it never died with him driving. What could it be. When it first started I was just driving down the road and it died, it took a bit for it to start back up, now nothing.

Welcome to the forum, if it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you check for spark at the plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a gage and check fuel pressure. Any codes? Just dieing going down the road, makes me wonder about the rpm signal?
