2007 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT 4.7. The truck shuts off going down the road, and sometimes at a red light. It always cranks back up. Sometimes it has a jerk like you took it out of gear and put it back.

Edited question for clarity.

Clean the Throttle Body and MAF sensor.

Hi,
Engine overheating?
1. Coolant level at cold
2. Coolant leak check for loss of, during "not hot" running condition. (water pump, hoses)
3. Replace the thermostat. It's inexpensive and easy enough to do.

Hope this helps... Good luck!
