Hi Lena, this could be caused by a variety of issues. It could be a problem with the fuel system, such as a clogged fuel filter or a faulty fuel pump. It could also be an issue with the ignition system, such as a failing ignition coil or spark plugs. I highly recommend taking your car to a trusted mechanic to diagnose and fix the problem.

Hi Lena, another possible reason for your engine suddenly stopping could be an issue with the battery or alternator. Make sure to check the condition of your battery and have your alternator tested. If either of these components are faulty, they can cause the engine to stop while driving. It's best to have them replaced if needed.

Hi Lena, I had a similar issue with my Kia Picanto and it turned out to be an issue with the fuel injectors. They were clogged and needed to be cleaned. Once I got that done, the engine stopped stalling while driving. So that's another thing you can check for. Hope this helps!
