My honda sometimes turns off when I'm sitting at a red light. And also sometimes when I put it in reverse it wil just stop and the steering wheel locks up so I have to put it in park, turn it off and back on

When it dies, does it fire right back up? If so, check your idle valving, and for vacuum leaks.

If it takes awhile to start-up. You must check fuel and spark when the vehicle does not start.
