This sounds like one of two issues. Either your crankshaft position sensor is faulty and loosing signal which causes the vehicle to stall and not restart. With this condtition after a while the sensor will just come alive and work fine. This can also occur with a faulty camshaft position sensor as well with the same results. Do you have any warning lights on in the dash?
