Engine stalled / shut off

My 2023 Rebel has done this twice in the last month. The first time, I was pulling up to a yield sign at an intersection. Yesterday in happened again, doing about 5mph. The first time it started right up, but yesterday...... I was halfway through a gated entrance at a business, so I was completely blocking the entry. Took almost 5 minutes before it would restart, and only did when I started mashing the accelerator, much like and old carb'd vehicle. Threw a P032F - combustion engine producing insufficient torque, and a P0300 Multiple cylinder misfire. Dealer can't get it in for another 9 days.
 
Stall situation happened on my 2019 Laramie with e torque. Truck was warmed up, had just dropped off materials at a job site. I was taking a right turn from an intersection at about 10 to 15 mph and pressed the gas to find no power, dash lit up, said shift to park. Tried to restart it several times it just cranked with no start. Called triple a and while I waited, pulled the negative battery cable, and reconnected after about 5 minutes. It would crank and briefly run then die. Towed it to the dealer who called 2 hours later saying it was starting and running fine, am I sure I want them to run the 200 diagnosis. From reading through this thread it seems to be an intermittent problem dealers can't figure out.
 
My 2019 stalled again, 33,000 miles on the truck. Happened while taking a left turn out of a parking lot at low speeds. I was able to coast to the side of the road, put it in park, waited about 1 minute and it restarted and ran like nothing happened. If anyone out there has had luck getting this fixed on a 2019 5.7 etorque would love to know the solution. Not gonna bother taking it to the dealer but did report both incidents to the NHTSA website.
 
We've got several different threads covering two distinct issues. It would probably be best to just have two threads, one for the first issue of the truck shutting down at higher speeds and the dash console lighting up like a Christmas tree. That can be caused by the above referenced (in the video) star connectors.

The second issue is a slow speed stall when turning or coming to a stop, followed by the shift to park and then drive console warning. I have personally experienced this one in a rented Jeep Wrangler with the plug-in hybrid motor. Although this vehicle had a completely different motor from our trucks, it did have the same 8 speed transmission. There has been some limited success addressing this issue by cleaning and/or replacing the throttle body. Personally, I suspect that this is a software problem associated with the Transmission Control Module.

This second issue has no known fix. The dealers can't fix it, FCA can't fix it, and the backyard mechanics can't fix it. If it were my truck, I would try replacing the TCM, Transmission Control Module.
