alot of things...read up on diagnosis ...
...everyone should have a manual for their vehicle(parts store or dealer), and a local library should have professional shop manuals available in the REFERENCE section for free...make copies of the appropriate sections...read up and good luck :)
I have an 04 Stratus, and have the same problem. Take it to an auto parts store that does code reading (or buy one), and read the codes. I've had 7 errors come up on one, and they all effect how long the car runs.
First, Cam sensor (looking at the engine, its on the left side, underneath the 1 1/2 inch rubber tube. Second, Crank sensor (real pain in the butt to change) Right side of engine--remove air intake. Sensor fits the same plug as the cam, but they are NOT the same--found that out the hard way. 3rd Low battery. Replace it if it needs it. Remove drivers tire--looking at the rotor its on the left side. remove panel, remove battery. and replace if needed. 4th MAP sensor, have not gotten around to replace this yet. 5th (6th and 7th) Barometric Pressure Sensor. No idea the car even had one. Dont know its location either. I've had all those errors, and replaced all but the MAP and BPS, and it still stalls mid-drive. Problem still isn't resolved. Oh, forgot about the random mis-fire on cyl. 5 --have had this problem for a LONG time now..I'd say about 30k+ miles, so I'm pretty sure it doesnt have too much to do with stalling.
Here's some pictures to help explain:

yea i have a 2000 dodge stratus .. after 30 mins of driving it would shut of while i was goin 50 40mph. it would turn back on after i completely stoped but the problem got worse it would die after 5 mins of driving and it would not turn back on.. good thing i didnt have an accident.. i found the problem after droping the tank checking the fuel pump, and the fuel lines, and the fuel presure line, ... theres a fuse next to the circuit box its called the asd relay which means auto shutdown relay which cuts the power to the pump and the spark to the distributor.. change that relay im most certain that's wats wrong with the stratus
