Very strongly suspect the alternator is not keeping the battery charged .. OR .. the battery itself 'might' be failing and not accepting the charge .. Once the battery nears depletion level, the engine will stall every time! .. Have the charging system (alternator output voltage) and the battery tested.. Alternator problem may be intermittent and difficult to diagnose, may need to leave it with mechanic for a couple days.. Any good independent auto repair shop should be equipped to take care of this issue .. Note: 'IF' alternator needs to be replaced, the best choice is the NAPA Power Supreme .. Lesser quality part on this vehicle is just asking for more trouble! .. Done been there!
Yes it does act like battery is dead
