Default 2002 Bonneville stalling

I own a 2002 Bonneville that I bought new and now has 20,000 miles. A few
months after I bought it, it stalled as I was driving. I was going about
30 mph, took my foot off the gas to slow down and it stalled. Took to
dealer-couldn't find a problem. The problem hasn't happened since then
until this April. The first time I was at a drive through, foot on brake,
and it stalled. Then in May, driving about 30 mph, took foot off gas to
slow down, applied break, stalled. Took to my dealer, they put it on the
computer, drove it, let it idle for an hour and found nothing wrong. It
stalled again today in the same fashion as in May. The car runs great, no
noises, etc. Just stalls out occasionally. I'm concerned because my
warranty is up in September and I want to find out what's wrong before
then. Any suggestions?

If it starts right up again, might try cleaning the throttle body.

Just keep bringing it back everytime it happens. They are bound to catch it
sooner or later. It's been my experience that as long as the problem is
reported before the warranty is up, they will still fix it after the
warranty has expired.
