@Paula08, I’m confused…could you clarify exactly what you mean? Is it shutting down while driving? At a light? Idling with AC? Is your check engine light on? If so, do you know what the codes are?

Had it checked. There was no code blank screen. 2009 Ford explorer jerks splutter when I’m sitting in traffic then it shuts down. No engine light on. Thank you
