I have a 2005 Ford Escape, and each time I drive it on the highway for forty or fifty miles it wants to die when I come to a stop. It never does this on short trips or driving around town.

Mine was doing the same thing. It was the torque converter. It kept locking up. Cost me a bundle to repair!

Is your check engine light on, if so, take it to your local auto zone and have them connect their computer and diagnose your problem. This is a free service. Hope this helps.

Whirring Noise from Right Front While Driving

If you have access to a lift put it on and look at the area where the noise is coming from if you have a small camera try and put it somewhere you may be able to see what it is doing.
Good luck.
