While riding on the highway my car shuts off with no indications. It can sit for a few minutes and it cranks back up as if it never cut out. Replaced the fuel pump twice and each time I replace it my car rides fine for about 1wk and then starts cutting off again.I have alsp replaced the cam shaft and water pump and transmisssion. The last time it cut out it took an hour to start up.I can't imagine what it could be. Pls help

Chrysler fuel pumps typically fail to start up. They rarely fail once they're running. That's how GM fuel pumps fail, then they let you sitting on the side of the highway.

The first thing you need to do is check for diagnostic fault codes. The most common cause of stalling is the camshaft position sensor. Other potential causes depend on which engine you have. You didn't say.
