Answer
Chris,
When the car quits, do you loose all the dash lights? Sounds like you have a bad ignition switch. Not really a big job to do. They are pretty common and go bad a lot. If the dash lights do not go out, then it may be another problem. I need more information to help you out better. How do you get the car restarted? Does the car just stall or does it stop moving? Any common conditions when this happens. What temp. does it happen? Any info. Would help me.
Thanks,
Gene
