First, if they diagnosed the problem, they are responsible for fixing it. If they replaced a part and it didn't work, tell them to refund your money.

As far as the engine dieing, is there a check engine light on? Have you had the computer scanned? Most nationally recognized parts store will do it for free.

Let me know what you find.
