driving after maybe two miles car stalls check engine light comes on along with oil and battery light. If going more than 22 miles an hour car starts back up under 22 MPH have to pull over and start car. I had fuel pump changed, fuel filter, crankshaft sensor, and fuel pressure sensor. still stalls after 2 miles.

These lights may be coming on due to the engine stalling, but we need to start with checking for codes just because there may be some.

If there are no codes, then that will help as well:

If there are no codes, then we need to start with this guide as it will help with getting us started on these types of issues:

Does the engine restart with no issues or does it take a certain amount of time before it will restart?

Lastly if none of these turns anything up, we will need to start crossing things off the list that will cause this.

That starts with checking the fuel pressure when this happens.

Please run through this info and let me know if you have questions.
