What should you do if your car stalls out on the highway?

Once you’re safely stopped, try starting the engine again.If you have an automatic transmission, shift into Park, if you have a manual transmission shift into Neutral. If you’re able to get the engine running again, get to a safe location off the road and call AAA(roadside assistance provider) or a tow truck in case the engine stalls again. If the engine won’t start, stay inside the vehicle, especially if you’re stuck in a traffic lane. First call 911 to get police help in moving your vehicle to safety, then call for roadside assistance, AAA, or a tow truck.
