Default 08 Durango shutting off

Hi. Newbie here.

I've recently gone from a much loved 2000 Durangoto an 08 4.7L Flexfuel and, on the whole, am happy with the new vehicle.
However, on two occasions, it has stalled for no apparent reason and both times on a right turn. I took it back to the dealer but they said they couldn't find anything. The CEL didn't come on. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Does anyone have any ideas about a possible cause?

Michelle.

Michelle, I have an '07 with the same engine and mine has never done that. Does it start right back up after it stalls? Are you running gasoline or ethanol when it happens?

Thanks for replying.

Yes, it starts back up with no problems at all andI've never put ethanol in it. Both times it's happened as Istart to accelerate out of a right turn. The dealer thought it could be a crank sensor problem but, when they checked, couldn't find anything. With no diagnostic codes, they seem at a loss.
