Scary engine stop at speed

My 07 E350 wagon engine shut down at speed on I 95. Restarted normally after pulled over. Dealer couldn't reproduced problem in 4 days 300 miles of testing.
GM had a similar well publicized ignition problem a few years ago that caused some wrecks.. I need to hear from anyone on this forum that has had a similar problem and any advice.

GM issue was keys turning to the off position during severe impacts, resulting in lack of airbag deployment. Not really similar.

Did you lose all power, or the dash stayed lit and the engine just shut down?

Most likely a sensor fault on the engine side, like a crank position sensor or internal ME fault. Quite unusual though.

Question Thanks for feedback

Dash stayed lit as best I can recall, which I presume rules out a fault in the ignition switch.
