I had a car that did that years ago. Low speed in the driveway or parking lot sometimes it would stall for no reason. It was an intermittently faulty crank position sensor. Might be something to check on yours.

What codes have you read?

What led you to replace the sensors?

What modifications are on this vehicle?

Have you replaced the auxiliary battery in the rear cargo area?

The engine lamp not show and not have any alarm just engine stop and can start again.
Already replaced auxiliary battery, crankshaft sensor and camshaft sensor.
But the problem of engine stop once break at the slow RPM still remains.

Read codes, there may be stored codes that don't turn the CEL on.

What modifications are on this vehicle? Nice color.
