Why is my car dying?

Asked by Guru646PL Mar 09, 2020 at 08:22 PM about the 2004 Toyota Camry LE FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car turns on normal. For whatever reason I'll be
driving or I'll have it parked while it's on and it dies.
After it dies, I try to turn it back on, it stalls. Then
turns back on as if nothing happened. Normally
theres no altercation of it dying: its just sudden,
then the red battery shows up on my dashboard.
The check engine light hasn't turned on.
