So, it only happens once a week while i am driving, the car will stop, and the check engine light will come on then i have to turn it off and turn it back on for it to run again. Also, when i am driving i can feel like it don't want to accelerate sometimes.

First, we need to run the codes to see what comes up so we can fix the problem. This guide can help us:

It sounds like the MAF sensor is going out, but the codes can tell us for sure. Check out the images below for the MAF sensor location. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
