On occasions my grand caravan will die when slowing down. The check engine light has not come on. I've replaced the plugs, wires, and coil- same thing. Otherwise it runs great. It will do this for a week then it may go a week with no problem.

This happens when the throttle body needs to be serviced which is common, here is a video to show you how.
