2023 1500 Bighorn Gas V6 stalling at low speed

[Signalwarrant]

My Bighorn has 23k miles on it, I bought it new. There are random times it will stall when I'm at very low speed. The most common scenario is when I'm creeping forward at a stop sign or light, lightly touch the gas and it will stall sometimes. If it doesn't stall I can feel it stumble a bit. This also happens sometimes when I'm backing into a parking spot, same type of situation very low speed / creeping.

I'm meticulous with services, no dash lights, nothing to indicate a problem. It says all the software is up to date, I've tried fuel system cleaner, getting gas a different locations. The dealer seems to think I'm a crazy person, they can't find anything wrong. Any ideas?

The only other thing I can think of to try is changing the plugs and wires.

Before you go throwing parts at it, try doing video of exactly what happens and keep a notepad to write down details such as outside temperature, was engine at operating temperature, fuel level, and anything else that might help. Did you run for codes?

Try running as much fuel out as possible and then fill at a different gas station with the octane gas required via your owners manual, don't use a higher grade. See if that does anything.

Get notes and video and take to your service department. Let them try to solve it before you start replacing parts.

Jack the rear end 9-12” off the ground. Get the trans to the correct temp and check the fluid level. Automatic transmissions with low or high fluid levels can cause weird things.

Another thing you could have is a bad battery.

I'd start by load testing the battery, any auto part store can do it for free.

I did not think of the battery or transmission. Thanks all.
