Default Town & Country electrical problem

I have a 2003 Town & Country that maybe has two problems. One it has stalled on occasion. If I let it set for a few minutes it will start and run just fine. Today my granddaughter was driving it and it died a couple of times. Also when she stopped and shut it off the warning lights in the dash all came on even after she had removed the key.
Any ideas what the problem or problems are?

I don't know if there were any codes. She was going to stop at O'Reilly's to have it checked and wasn't home yet when I went to bed last night.

It coded stretched timing chain. That would explain the dying but what would cause the problem with the warning lights? She said that just before it died the lights came on and the tack went to zero. Any ideas what would cause that?

there are no such codes that will tell u a stretched chain codes come from sensors to tell teh computer what it is looking at. There are no sensors to tell a chain that is stretched.

I wondered about that. I was told that the Body Control Module was the cause of the warning lights coming on with the key off. Could that cause the motor to die. It starts and runs fine when cooled off but will die after driving for a while.
