Answer
Either you have an intermittent failure of the electric fuel pump in the fuel tank OR you have an intermittent electrical failure of ignition to the fuel injectors.

Obviously the people who diagnosed your problem to the cost of $500.00 have NO clue as to what the actual problem is, They are very successful at taking your money.

There is no way for m to tell you what the EXACT cause IS, Without having physical access to the vehicle and performimg some routine test procedures.
