car stalled a couple of times in the past few days

the couple of times my car turned of was while i was stopped. i did notice my car was low on oil and have since topped it off. im not sure if that could cause it but the seoncd time it stalled was a couple of days after i added oil. im going to change it tonight and see what improves

I don't think the condition or level of the oil would keep the engine from starting unless the crankcase was pretty much empty.

would this issue be under "problem starting", i thought that would be when you initially go to drive the car. the two times it stalled it started right back up when i turned the key back and restarted it.

Could be so many things. Hard to diagnose on the internet. Could be a bad tank of gas, could be too low idle speed, could need a tune up, etc....
