2001 Suzuki Vitara Two Wheel Drive Automatic 63000 miles

My car frequently stalls when I slow down for lights or to pull into a parking space. It can sometimes take an hour of rest before I can restart it. I have it to the Suzuki dealer and to three other mechanics. Suzuki says there is nothing that they can find. It doesn't do it for them. One of the other guys replaced the alternator. Another guy replaced the battery.

Nothing else has ever been wrong with the car. I bought it new and have maintained it correctly. Now I am afraid to drive anywhere but to work and the grocery store because I have gotten stuck so often.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
