5 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2006

My 2003 Ford Taurus has been in the shop over 5 times for stalling while driving and not starting on any given day. Everything has been replaced except the car itself. Upon the last visit, I was told it was the starter and that I had to pay for it to be replaced. After it was replaced and the dealership called to let me know it was ready, I went up there and it would not start again. At that time they told me it was the computer in the car and they would have to replace it also. Any information on exactly what is wrong, would be nice. I have driven their loaner car more than the car I bought!.
