Unhappy stalling auto???

This has been a nonissue for me, but very occasionally (by which I mean it has only happened twice), my Durango has stalled. Both times I was reversing slowly, and it just pooped out on me. Started up fine and drove off right after. If it stays like this it won't bother me, but I know automatics are not supposed to stall, and I am curious as to what it might be.

Doubt it has a thing to do with the transmission. Are there any DTC's in memory?

sounds like your heated o2 sensor needs to be replaced (might be a loose connection somewhere in the circuit too)

Come to think of it, it was, because I was backing up in my driveway, which has a very sharp corner.

there it is, i have seen quite a few cars do this if you have no gas pedal into it and the wheel turned to full lock and you keep pushing it that way will cause this. mine has done it once. if it becomes a regular occurrence to the point it gets annoying i would look into it, otherwise i wouldnt worry about it
