It has a problem of dying while driving when you let off the gas and hit the brake and sometimes it do not want to start or stay running at an idle but there is no warning when it does there is no bogging down of the motor or anything it just dies

Sounds like the throttle body and IAC need to be cleaned. They get carbon/dirt build up and block all air into the engine and it shuts down.
