Express 8-cyl

This could have happened before and just didn't pay that much attention to it but the first time we really noticed it we were : traveling slowly on gravel road, engine just quit. Had to put vehicle in park and crank it. Second time : had just stopped at a stop sign, started to pull out, engine just quit. Had to put vehicle in park and crank it again. Luckily there were no other vehicles behind us either time. Need to use this vehicle for a trip with our grandchildren and do not feel safe or comfortable in traffic as this could happen again and could cause an accident. We have not been informed if there is a recall on this but feel there must be some type of defect and that this is a safety hazard. We only have 29,500 miles on this vehicle ( express van ) and use it mostly for outings with the family. With all the recalls on the ignition switches, we just need to report this and need it fixed.
