Default 2012 Grand Caravan turning off by itself

My caravan ran good for awhile until it started shutting off without warning at random times. These instances have been occurring while the car is idle at a light, in park, slowly about picking up speed after light turns green.

Anyone have an idea what it might be or where I need to start? Much appreciated.

Did you have the vehicle scan for codes.

Yes, it didn’t give any. Seeing in separate forums that it could potentially be the ecm.

Did you scan for codes. You should have had some stored codes. If you cycle the key three times and leave the key on, you should get a P code. It may take a few times to do this. But you will get a code if it stored.
