AS I was driving down the highway the engine just shut off. No warning, no engine light. After coasting to a stop I restsrted the engine and it ran fine for about 75 mines and shut down again. I has done this three times in two days.

When the vehicle stalls, are the dash lites on? If not, it sounds like an electrical issue not an engine issue. Intermittent stuff can be hard to track down. Does the vehicle immediately restart? If not, you can do some of the basic tests. Spark at the plugs, fuel pressure?

Can you check for codes? Some of the national brand autostores will check codes for free. The codes won't tell you what to replace, only that the computer thinks there is a problem in that general area.
