While the truck is running the engine will shut off and about once a week. When starting the truck, it will not start. The truck has been towed to the dealer 4 times in the last 6 weeks. The battery/starter and alternator have all been replaced, and the problem continues. Consumer feels this is due to an electrical problem.
