Description of the problem	I have the 2004 dodge ram 1500 with the 5. 7 hemi. The truck inconsistently stalls for no reason. Sometimes after fueling up the motor will surge and sputter before stalling. Most of the time the motor starts right back up only to stall again just a short time later. Other times the motor will not restart for several minutes and attempts. It only stalls when traveling below 25mph and sitting at idle. I noticed it normally idles around 700rpm, but just before a stall it will dip to 500rpm and feel as it there is a slight miss in the motor. Nothing i have tried has fixed this issue and the repair shops have failed to duplicate or diagnose this problem. After checking around i have noticed this seems to be a common problem and i think dodge should do something to fix this. Whenever the engine fails i lose steering and brakes. Last week it stalled on the interstate with no pull off room and it would not restart for several minutes nearly causing a rear end collision between a big rig and myself. This is a serious safety issue.
