Description of the problem	My 2004 dodge ram 1500 pick up with a 5. 7 liter engine began to stall upon braking and coming to a stop. The engine would lose rpm and die (stall) leaving me with no brakes or steering. It would restart easily but occur again frequently. Took the vehicle to a repair shop and after extensive and expensive diagnosis was found to have a failing throttle body and associated electrical failure. A new throttle body was obtained from dodge (different part number from original) and installed. Total cost for the work was approximately $2,500. 00. My research shows that this problem is extensive in this model and is dangerous.
